Answer:

Option). NK cells.

Explanation:

Cluster of differentiation 8 (CD8) can bed defined as a transmembrane glycoprotein that acts a co-receptor for the receptor present on T cells (TCR). The CD8 is marker for $T_c$ cells (cytotoxic T cells) as it is predominantly present on cell surface of these cells.

Along with cytotoxic cells, CD8 molecule is also expressed in surface of natural killer cells (NK cells), thymocytes, and myeloid dendritic cells.

Hence, a cell having CD8 on its surface (cytotoxic T cell) would be most similar to NK cells.

A. Which form of nitrogen in the soil is NOT usable by organisms?

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

A)Fixation. Nitrogen in its gaseous form (N2) can't be used by most living things

B) it can not be used because it most be converted or, ’fixed’ to a more useable form. To do this it goes through a process called fixation.fixation is the change in a gene pool from a situation where there exists at least two variants of a particular gene (allele) in a given population to a situation where only one of the alleles remains.

C) This form can be made more usable if it’s converted. It has to go through the process of fixation so the gene pool changes.
