<span>All children have a 50/50 chance of being male or being female. There is no true predisposition of having all male or all female children because it depends on the strength of the sperm and which sperm reaches the egg first. If the stronger sperm is an X chromosome sperm cell the child will be female while if the Y chromosome sperm cell is stronger then the child will be male. With women it does not matter because women have 2 X chromosomes versus men who only have 1 X and 1 Y. So the probability that the second child to b born a male will be 50/50 just like any child that is born.</span>
<span>The effect of insecticides will result in prolonged muscle contraction.</span> <span>Acetylcholinesterases are the enzymes that catalyze the breakdown of acetylcholine (Ach) in the synaptic cleft. This normally occurs, after the Ach achieves its effects on its receptors. On the other hand, acetylcholinesterase inhibitors inhibits the acetylcholinesterase enzyme thereby increasing the level and duration of action of the neurotransmitter ACh. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are used as insecticides.</span>
Each organ of the body produces pangenes which travel through the blood to the reproduction organs to be given to offspring. This is of course false as proven by scientists.
* More than 40 proteins and glycoproteins involved in the complement system are synthesized by the liver, macrophages, epithelial cells, they are present in the blood in plasmatic form, membrane, some have an enzymatic activity, regulator or membrane receptorThese are elements of the humoral innate immune response, they fight infections, purify immune complexes and apoptotic bodies.
<span>There are indeed three ways to activate the complement:</span>
Classical pathway: Activated by Immunoglobulins in immune complexes, aggregated Immunoglobulins, DNA, CRP, apoptotic bodies .......it involves nine fractions, starting with C1, then C4, C2, C3, to form a classical C5 convertase, then, activation of C5, C6, C7, C8, C9.
Alternative pathway: activated by polysaccharides (bacterial endotoxin), vascular wall poor in sialic acid, aggregated IgE ...C3b like is the first component in the alternate channel cascade, it will create an amplification loop, and form an alternative C5 convertase.
Lecithin pathway: Activated by mannose, fucose (carbohydrate of microorganisms)The first component is the complex MBL / MASP1 / MASP2: "mannose-binding protein": works according to the same principle as the complex C1 of the classical way (MASP2 cleaves the C4 and the rest of the cascade is equivalent to that of the classical way).
the three ways have the same outcome: A C5 convertase (formed by one of the pathways) cleaves C5 into C5a and C5b: C5b is deposited far from other fractions on the antigenic surface. The fixation of C5b in the cell is followed by that of C6, C7, C8, and C9 (9 molecules of C9): formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) ==> Death of the cell by osmotic shock
The reproductive parts of an angiosperm are located in the flowers. A flower of an angiosperm usually consists of four whorls namely calyx, corolla, androecium and gynoecium.
