Answer:

The fern may be 650 million years

Explanation:

Fossilization of organisms and plants took place many years ago. Fossils are remains of plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and single celled living things that have been replaced by rock material or impressions of organisms preserved in the rocks. This happened when there was an anaerobic decomposition of burried dead organisms and plants that contained energy derived from photosynthesis. The organisms fossilized and became preserved in rocks.

T cell-target cell interactions induce specialized tc cells to produce ________ that kill virus-infected target cells.
Doss [256]

The answer is granzymes. are serine proteases which trigger the apoptotic cascade in target cells. Apoptotic enzymes activated by granzymes can also destroy viruses or other cytoplasmic pathogens in the target cells so that the pathogens cannot infect nearby cells. Dead target cells are rapidly ingested by macrophages. The Tc cells also produce perforin pores to  allow granzymes to enter the target cell.

Two consecutive even positive integers have a product of 2,400. What is the smaller of the two numbers?
Flura [38]

Answer: <u>Option C; 48</u>

Explanation:

Let one number = x

Other number = x+2

According to question-

[x] [x+2] = 2400

x^{2} + 2x - 2400 = 0

Solving this equation, we get-

[x - 48] [x - 50 ] = 0

x = 48 or 50

Since 48 is the smaller number here, answer is option C

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration with respect to energy
motikmotik
“Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.”
