A quadratic equation has the general form of: 
<span>
y=ax² + bx + c
</span><span>
It can be converted to the vertex form in order to determine the vertex of the parabola. It has the standard form of:
</span><span>
y = a(x+h)² - k
</span><span>
where h, k are the vertex points.
</span><span>
y=-2x^2 + 2x+ 2
</span><span>y=-2(x^2 - x) + 2
</span><span>y + 1/4 = -2 (x^2 -x +1/4) + 2
</span><span>y = -2 (x - 1/2)^2 + 7/4
</span><span>
Therefore, the vertex is (-1/2, -7/4)
</span><span>
at x = 6, y = -58</span>

You are a microbe trying to establish an infection in a host. You are trying to evade the immune system as best you can. Explain
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

A. Natural killer (NK) cells are activated in response to interferons or macrophage and Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and allows direct apoptosis of virus.

Viruses can invade NK cells by inhibiting MHC from reaching the cell surface. Using stimulating the inhibitory receptors and disrupting the activating receptors, viruses can avoid NK cells. MHC act as a ligand of inhibitory receptor, and when bind with inhibitory receptor allows damage to NK cells.

So, if i would be a virus i will use inhibitory receptors stimulation to avoid NK cells.

B. Bacteria are killed by phagocytic immune cell macrophages by engulfing them.

Bacteria avoid macrophages by escaping from phagosome before the lysosome fuses as lysosomal chemical kill the bacteria and some bacteria  prevent acidification of the phagosome.

C. Parasites can avoid macrophages by modulating the host's cell cytoskeleton to block proper phagocytosis.

D. Bacteria can avoid dendritic cells by avoiding  lysosomal degradation and prevent antigen presentation on MHC molecules that will modulate the entrance to DCs.

E. B cells are responsible for producing antibodies. Activation of B-cell  depends on positive and negative signals transmitted through the B-cell receptor (BCR), so genetic polymorphisms and mutations affects the positive and negative signals. If mutation is done showing negative signal, B cell will not the activate and no antibodies will produce.

The key feature is cell wall. Only plants contain cells with cell wall. The plant cell wall is composed of cellulose. Cellulose is a structural carbohydrate and is considered a complex sugar because it is used in both protection and structure. The plant cell wall consists of three layers with each layer containing its own unique structure and function.
