Answer:

B. They are parasitic.

D. They cause diseases in humans.

Explanation:

Worms are known and classified in Biology as Helminths. They are invertebrates which means they do not have backbones.

Helminths(worms) vary in their body shapes. Some are long, Some have a round shape while some are flat.

Some helminths have a digestive tracts while some do not. Some are hemaphrodites while some are bisexual.

Helminths are parasitic organisms and when found in body of animals, they tend to attach themselves to internal organs such as the digestive tracts of humans. They can cause illness in the body.

The answer is; B and D

Tapeworms (Cestoda) are called flatworm (Platyhelminthes) while hookworms are roundworms (Nematodes). Both are parasites and live within the intestines of animals and feed on the nutrients digested in the organ. When these worms migrate to other parts of the body, they cause complications, The more of this parasite one has the heavier the symptoms they will exhibit – such as asthma-like symptoms.

"Now that you have come up with an equation that describes the relationship between amounts of different nucleotide bases in DNA
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

G - 21%

T - 29%

A - 29%

Explanation:

Nucleotide bases in DNA are complementary. Adenosine (A) binds to Thymine (T) while Cytosine (C) binds to Guanine (G). Hence the composition of A in DNA is the same as that of T; and that of C is the same as that of G.

From the information given, C is 21%

Therefore G is also 21% of the genome as  C is bound to G, the therefore are the same proportion.

C and G make up 42% of the genome (that 21% + 21%).

The remaining 58% (100%-42%) is made up of A + T

Similarly the proportion of A is equal to that of T,

Hence A is 29% (half of 58%) and T is 29%.

What happens after activation of T cells<br>​
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Helper T cells are arguably the most important cells in adaptive immunity, as they are required for almost all adaptive immune responses. They not only help activate B cells to secrete antibodies and macrophages to destroy ingested microbes, but they also help activate cytotoxic T cells to kill infected target cells.

Explanation:

Helper T cells become activated when they are presented with peptide antigens by MHC class II molecules, which are expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Once activated, they divide rapidly and secrete cytokines that regulate or assist the immune response.

What is the process in the cell can be disturbed by the destruction of the mitochondria?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is - C. oxidation of substances organic.

Explanation:

The major function of the mitochondria is to perform cellular respiration and produce energy in the form of ATP by oxidating organic molecules. All the process requires energy to be processed, however, the main and primary process that would disturb if by the destruction of the mitochondria occur which is the oxidation of glucose to convert it to pyruvic acid to generate energy.

The Krebs cycle that takes place in mitochondria and performs oxidation of organic molecules will also be disturbed and there will be no energy for any process.
