Does fitness as used in biology and survival have the same meaning? Why or why not?

Biology
1 answer:

7 0

Explanation: The biological fitness of an organism is dependent on its ability to survive and reproduce in a given environment. A trait that increases ability to survive, but makes an individual sterile, decreases fitness because the organism cannot produce offspring to carry on the trait.

Chromosomes often exchange segments of DNA during meiosis. How might this increase the survival of a species?

Which receptor on the helper T-cell recognizes the specific antigen from an antigen-presenting cell? Which receptor on the helpe
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

TCR

Explanation:

Helper T cells are the CD4T cells that are present in the inactive form. These cells have receptors for antigens on their surface. These antigen receptors are called T-cell receptors (TCRs). The function of TCR is to recognize and bind to specific foreign antigen fragments that are presented in antigen–MHC complexes. Different helper T cells have their unique TCRs to recognize a specific antigen–MHC complex. The CD4 proteins of helper T cells also interact with the MHC antigens and help maintain the TCR–MHC coupling.

2. Mesomorphs-square and muscular, with dynamic and aggressive personality,

3. Ectomorphs-thin and fine-boned with introverted, and sensitive personality.

A student has been shrunk to a size small enough to be inserted into one of the membrane-bound
yawa3891 [41]

A student who has been shrunk to a size small enough to be inserted into the interior of a chloroplast, who then travels out into the cytosol, will have passed through two plasmatic membranes.

The student in question is placed in the interior of a chloroplast. The anatomy of a chloroplast, in broad terms, contains:

  1. Stroma
  2. Granum
  3. Inner membrane
  4. Outer membrane

These contents have been listed in order from the most interior to the most superficial. The question states that the student is placed in the granum, meaning that he is within the inner membrane. In order to escape into the cytosol, which lies just beyond the outer membrane, he must travel across two plasmatic membranes.
