Answer:

1. There are five primary classes of antibodies, that are IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD, IgE.

2. IgM

Explanation:

The antibodies are proteins that are Y-shaped and are also called immunoglobulins. The antibody is produced when any pathogen attacks the body. There are five primary classes of antibodies, that are IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD, IgE. The antibody contains two heavy and two light chains. The IgM is a pentamer immunoglobulin. The IgG is contains two gamma heavy chains and two light chains. The IgA is mostly monomeric. The IgD have two delta heavy chains and light chains. The IgE contains two ∈ chains and light chains.

IgM is produced first. The IgA produced after IgM on mucosal surfaces. The IgG is present in serum. The all immunoglobulins IgM, IgA, IgD, IgE, and IgG are abundant in blood circulation.

You may talk about this picture:

A: it is an ionic bond (which is a strong interaction, between two close atoms which has a large difference in their charges, like azote and oxygen)
B: is a hydrogen bond (between O in a side and H in the other side)
C: it could be a Van der Waals bond (small interaction between Carbon and hydrogen from different sides (London interaction))
D: Hydrogen bond (between the Oxygen and hydrogen from different sides)

Point mutations in noncoding regions of dna result in __________.

vladimir2022 [97]

<h2>Answer </h2>

Neutral Variation

<u>Explanation</u>

Point mutations in noncoding regions of DNA result in neutral variation. The alleles which neither considerably sum to nor exceedingly lower from body consistency. It is the accumulation of such alleles located within a community that can be explained as expressing neutral variation. Neutral Variation implies in various alleles that are existing at an assigned genetic locus because those alleles are not distinct by natural selection.

Question: A rat approaches a piece of rotting fruit, takes a small bite, and runs away. Which statement best explains the reason

Anna [14]

Answer: See below

Explanation:

There should be another answer that can be chosen: the rat’s chemical receptors detect chemicals in the fruit that alert the rat to possible danger. Sensory receptors in the rat's whiskers respond to input about the texture of the fruit, maybe it's slimy or rancid, if if it was another factor such as the environment, it wouldn't have approached the fruit in the first place.
