Answer:

<h2>By inactivating  elongation factor, diptheria toxin shuts off translation.</h2>

Explanation:

Corynebacterium diptheriae: Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the causing agent of diphtheria. Diphtheria toxin is an exotoxin (toxin type), which is secreted by Corynebacterium.

By inactivating  elongation factor, diptheria toxin shuts off translation, this immediate shut off of  protein synthesis is toxic to the cell , because cell need continuous synthesis of protein. Due to this blockage, cell will not able to full-filling their protein requirement, so cell will die, this have  immediate and long-term effects on the cellular metabolism of an infected person.

Explain the different levels of cellular organization.
JulijaS [17]

There are 5 different levels of cellular organization.

Cells, tissues, organs, organ systems and whole organisms. Cells hold genetic material and absorb outside energy.

Tissues make up the bones, nerves and connective fibers of the body. Organs work to perform specific bodily tasks, such as filtering blood. Organ systems are groups of organs that perform a specific kind of function together, such as digesting food.

Together, these smaller systems make up an entire living organism which can grow and then go onto reproduce.

Main sequence stars can be classified according to which characteristics
miskamm [114]

Stars are classified based on the spectral type (i.e. a means to measure the photospheric temperature and density by getting information about the ionisation state).

Under the Morgan–Keenan (MK) system using the letters O, B, A, F, G, K, and M, a sequence from the hottest (O type) to the coolest (M type) (Harvard Spectral classification based on the surface temperature of the stars). A luminosity class is added to the spectral class using Roman numerals (Yerkes Spectral classification). This is based on the width of certain absorption lines in the star's spectrum (0 or Ia+ - hypergiants, I - supergiants, II - bright giants, III - regular giants, IV - sub-giants, V - main-sequence stars, sd - sub-dwarfs, and D - white dwarfs).
