Answer:

This was the only treatment options adopted for the Ebola in  1995 in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The assumption was that immune response is generated by the virus in the WBC of the infected individuals. These response produce antibodies.

A total if 8 patients were transfused with these blood contained antibodies, but one of these died, the remaining 7 patients survived.

The antibodies were believed to  have  multiplied(produced b-cells) to neutralize the Ebola virus(antigens)  and to ensure the survival of the patients

Rock B reacts with hydrochloric acid. State the name of the rock B
choli [55]

Answer:

The sedimentary rock limestone which contains carbonate mineral Calcite and the metamorphic rocks which contain carbonate mineral Aragonite are the examples of rocks which react strongly with hydrochloric acid.

Explanation:

Rocks are naturally occurring structures formed on the Earth's crust and are composed of aggregate minerals. Classification of rocks: Igneous rocks - formed by cooling of magma on Earth's crust or seabed (basalts, gabbros, granite, etc), sedimentary rocks - formed over time by the accumulation of sediments from the weathering of existing rocks or fragments of minerals and organisms (mudstone, sandstone, shale, limestone, dolostone, siltstone, etc) and metamorphic rocks - transformed rocks formed from the existing rocks that are subjected to large pressures and temperatures (schists, gneiss, marble, etc).

The carbonate minerals like calcite, dolomite, aragonite, etc react with hydrochloric acid and release carbon dioxide gas bubbles. Calcite (calcium carbonate), which is found in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks in a varying proportion reacts strongly with hydrochloric acid. So, the sedimentary rock Limestone which mainly contains calcite react strongly with the acid while Dolostone which mainly contains dolomite (calcium magnesium carbonate) reacts less vigorously. Another carbonate mineral aragonite, found in metamorphic rocks also reacts strongly with hydrochloric acid.

Which one of the following statements about lysosomes is incorrect? If one of the many types of acid hydrolases found in the lys
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

B. Lysosomes are acidic because they contain acid hydrolases.

Explanation:

Lysosomes are small cell organelles that float outside nucleus. Lysosomes are present in the cytosol of the cells.

Lysosomes are acidic in nature having pH below 5 because of proton pumping through the plasma membrane to maintain this acidic pH.

This acidic nature of lysosomes play a role in fight against diseases.

Hence, the correct option is "B".
