The correct answer is: D. They are all peptides.

Mediators of inflammation released by certain type of cell have a function to control the later accumulation and activation of other cells. Chemical mediators of inflammatory responses are soluble, diffusible molecules that can act locally (at the site of tissue damage / infection) or at distant sites. These mediators include vasoactive amines and peptides, eicosanoids, proinflammatory cytokines. They respond to  inflammatory process by preventing further tissue damage and ultimately resulting in restoration of tissue function.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Incomplete question. Attached is the image of the map below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

From the map, we could notice the contour lines around the Chimney Bluff areas are closely packed together. In other words, the spacing between the contour lines is narrower than those found in other locations.

This assertion is accurate because it is a standard practice in many maps to indicate the steepness of an area by having the contour lines in close proximity.

How do cells maintain water balance through osmosis?
neonofarm [45]
Water then moves from cell to cell through the root cortex by osmosisalong a concentration gradient; this means that each cell is hypertonic to the one before it. In the centre of the root the water enters the xylem vessels. Water may move by diffusionthrough the cell walls and intercellular spaces.

How does the shape of the earth and its tilted axis influence where terrestrial communities are found?
zzz [600]

<u>Answer:</u>

The Earth has got its tilted axis and this is the reason for different seasons to be formed. Communities are a set of population found in that particular area and are of two types.  

A) Terrestrial (Land)

B) Aquatic (Water).

These communities to flourish need a perfect environment with a perfect season.  Hence according to the season formed due to the tilted axis influences the  terrestrial community which forms in that particular region and have the ability for the region specific community growth.

The terrestrial community of a tundra or desert or rain forest all depends on the particular season that can be formed due to the position of the earth facing the sun.
