Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that infects (and destroys) Helper T Cells. As a result, people who are HIV+ gener

Because HIV infects and destroys Helper T Cells, you would end up with a very weak immune system because T Cells identify pathogens and fight them. Without them, we aren’t able to fight of pathogens, making the body vulnerable to disease, bacteria, and viruses.

Plant leaves produce starch as an energy molecule through the process of photosynthesis. Starch is a polysaccharide. Which monos
Sonja [21]

Monosaccharide molecule is produced and stored as energy for future use is Glucose.

Unlike people, plants must produce their own energy through photosynthesis in order to meet their needs for fuel. Plants produce and store starch in their leaves for short-term needs.

A polysaccharide, such as starch, is created when a series of glucose molecules are bonded together to form a longer molecule.

In starch, there are two varieties of polysaccharides:

  • Amylose – a linear chain of glucose
  • Amylopectin – a highly branched chain of glucose

Depending on the plant, starch is made up of between 20-25% amylose and 75-80% amylopectin.

A strain of Streptococcus pneumoniae is no longer able to synthesize its capsular polysaccharide. What is a likely outcome?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

e. It will be readily phagocytized upon entering the host

Explanation:

<em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> is a Gram-positive bacteria of the genus Streptococcus, being this pathogen known to produce respiratory tract infections and one of the most important causes of meningitis and pneumonia. The capsular polysaccharide of <em>S. pneumoniae </em>is required for its virulence. Based on capsule virulence factors, <em>S. pneumoniae</em> can be classified into 90 distinct serotypes, but only a few serotypes are able to produce serious diseases. The virulence factors localized in the capsule include invasins and adhesins, which act as antiphagocytic and immunogenic factors, respectively.
