A terminal moraine, also called end moraine, is a type of moraine that forms at edge of a glacier. The moraine is left as the marking point of the terminal extent of the ice. Hope this helps. c;

Consider a helminthic infection in which an individual is colonized by a parasitic worm. The worm is too big to be engulfed by a

Assoli18 [71]

Answer

The worm gets coated with antibodies, which activate other cells in the immune system to secrete chemicals that kill it.

Explanation:

Production of T-helper I cytokines like IFN gamma, IL-2 and IL-18 is highly protective against helminth infection by activating the macrophage intracellular killers. Protection against mucosal eosinophil responses in which antiparasitic chemicals are released. Killing also involves direct cytotoxic mechanisms in which T- cell and NK-cells directly release antiparasitic agents like perforin and granulysin which kill the parasite.

Answer:

<h2>Diseases transmitted through sexual contact are sexually transmitted diseases. Individuals having more than one sexual partners and doing unprotected sex are more prone to sexually transmitted diseases.</h2>

Explanation:

Individuals having more than one sexual partners and doing unprotected sex are more prone to sexually transmitted diseases. Here, the college student has more than one partner and not always use the condoms. So, she is prone to have sexually transmitted diseases if her partner are infected. Presence of warts indicates that she might have infected with Human Papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a sexually transmitted infection (STI).

How can reproductive barriers form sympatric populations while their members remain in the same geographic area?

grandymaker [24]

Answer: Polyploidy

Explanation:

Polyploidy is defined as the phenomenon by which cells, tissues or organisms with three or more complete sets of chromosomes originate. Such cells, tissues or organisms are called polyploids.

If the genomes of a polyploid species come from the same ancestral species, it is said to be autopolyploid or autoploid. And if they come from two different ancestral species, it is said to be allopolyploid or alloploid. Depending on the number of complete chromosome sets that the species has it is called triploid (3X), tetraploid (4X), pentaploid (5X), hexaploid (6X) and so on, where X is the monoploid number, and not to be confused with the haploid number.

Redundant genetic elements of polyploid organisms can be transformed into single copies by sub-functionalization, neofunctionalization mechanisms or by the appearance of certain mutations.

Two populations are sympatric when they exist in the same area and thus frequently encounter one another. In general, different species cannot interbreed and produce healthy and fertile offspring due to barriers known as reproductive isolation mechanisms. Polyploidy speciation is common in plants but rare in animals. So, animal species are much less tolerant of changes in ploidy. For example, human embryos that are triploid or tetraploid are not viable, cannot survive.
