It can impact its physical characteristics
Answer:
People can be immunised against a pathogen through vaccination. Different vaccines are needed for different pathogens. For example, the MMR vaccine is used to protect children against measles, mumps and rubella (German measles).
Answer: a specific protein
Explanation:
proteins are one of the most abundant organic molecules in living systems and have the most diverse range of functions of all macro molecules. the functions of proteins are very diverse because there are 20 different chemically distinct amino acids that form long chains, and the amino acids can be in any order. For example, proteins can function as enzymes or hormones.
The presentation of an 18-month-old with hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI), deficiency of aldolase B and low blood glucose levels is due to accumulation of fructose-1 phosphate and the inhibition of glycolytic-gluconeogenic pathways.
Explanation:
Hereditary fructose intolerance leads to deficiency of fructose-1-phosphate aldolase enzyme. This enzyme deficiency leads to accumulation of fructose-1 phosphate in the liver. Fructose-1 phosphate inhibits the action of phosphorylase enzyme which monitors the glycogen to glucose conversion. Since glucose formation is reduced, hypoglycemia and lactic acidosis takes place accounting for the patient’s low blood sugar.
