The antigen concentration is not used to deduce the infection pathway because the immune system of the body might fight off the antigen. The lymphocytes, which are a part of the immune system helps in the production of the antibodies, and destroying the antigens. Therefore, the use of the antigen concentration here may result in skewed results as the antigens might get destroyed by the immune response of the body. Moreover, the response of different individuals to different concentrations of the antigens will be different.

marusya05 [52]
i think the answer is : A meiosis because The process of meiosis produces unique reproductive cells called gametes, which have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Fertilization, the fusion of haploidgametes from two individuals, restores thediploid condition. Thus, sexually reproducing organisms alternate between haploid anddiploid stages.

Explain why ions do not move through ion channels by only simple diffusion, whereas water does move through water channels by si
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Electrical gradient.

Explanation:

Ions DO NOT move in Ion channels by simple diffusion because most ion channels can be:

I) selective of ions pass through it.

II) operating on a "open and close" principle. Where it opens or close on its own accord OR does so ONLY when induced by a specific influence like change in voltage of ion channels.

IN ADDITION to the concentration gradient, ELECTRICAL GRADIENTS (change in membrane voltage) affects the movement of ions through ion channels

What do the organisms in each trophic level eat
strojnjashka [21]
Trophic levels can be represented by numbers, starting at level 1 with plants. Further trophic levels are numbered subsequently according to how far the organism is along the food chain. Level 1: Plants and algae make their own food and are called primary producers.Level 2: Herbivores eat plants and are called primary consumers.Level 3: Carnivores that eat herbivores are called secondary consumers.Level 4: Carnivores that eat other carnivores are called tertiary consumers.Level 5: Apex predators that have no predators are at the top of the food chain.*Hope that helps XD*
