Mashutka [201]3 years ago

Answer:

There are a number of mechanisms through which a bacterial cell might become resistant to a specific antibody.

  1. Some bacteria might posses a cell membrane which wouldn't allow the transfer of antibiotics into the cell of the bacteria. Some bacterial cells might not have the target sites on which the antibiotics attack. A bacterial cell that would be non-resistant wouldn't block the entry of the drug or it might not lack the site where the drug has to function.
  2. Some resistant bacteria might produce enzymes that would inactivate the activity of the antibiotics. This enzyme machinery would lack in a non-resistant strain. The resistant bacteria might have undergone mutations over a period of time to evolve a machinery for antibiotic resistance.

Si todas las células del organismo reaccionaran cómo lo hacen las del higado, se esperaría que ?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Si todas las células reaccionaran como el hígado, cada una tendría la capacidad de producir proteínas, colesterol, almacenamiento y liberación de glucosa, procesaría la producción de hemoglobina y amoníaco en la urea, purificaría las drogas y los desechos, regularía la coagulación, produciría los factores necesarios en la respuesta inmune e intervendría en la formación de bilirrubina, principalmente, sin embargo, debe tenerse en cuenta que una de las funciones principales es el suministro de energía, si cada célula tuviera reservas de glucosa por momentos de estrés, rápida regeneración celular ante las lesiones, las células no tendrían la capacidad de tener una adaptación específica de sus funciones y los procesos que son básicos para el funcionamiento humano serían destruidos, como un eritrocito cuya función es el transporte de oxígeno, no lo haría ser viable si se dedica a producir glucosa porque su estructura debería adaptarse a otra y sin oxígeno el cuerpo no vive, por lo que sería caótico que los sistemas sí no tienen una adaptación específica y son las mismas, aunque las reacciones hepáticas son vitales, requiere el apoyo de otros órganos con diferentes funciones para que estas tengan lugar, es de resaltar que el hígado tiene una respuesta rápida y efectiva ante el estrés, busca recursos para poder mantener funcionando muchos sistemas, si las células se adaptarán con la misma rapidez, se evitaría la aparición de muchas enfermedades.

Answer:

Hemoglobin is produced by ribosomes and transports oxygen so the mitochondria in other cells can carry out cell respiration.

Explanation:

Hemoglobin is a protein, and while it's synthesis is complicated, most of the synthesis of the protein is done by ribosomes.
