Answer:
Filip's medical report, diagnosed with Alzhaimer's, may reveal a diminished production of acethylcholine.
Explanation:
Alzhaimer's disease is a neurodegenerative condition that causes immediate memory loss, behavioral changes and cognitive impairment, due to neuronal alterations and atrophy.
The neurotransmitter acetylcholine —related to neuronal transmission and body movement— may experience a decrease in its production leading to Alzheimer's, according to the cholinergic hypothesis.
Many therapies and treatments at present are based on the use of drugs to correct the acetylcholine deficit.
Regarding other options:
- <em>Dopamine: alteration or deficit is related to Parkinson's disease.</em>
- <em>Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA): deficiency is not common and is related to a type of congenital and infantile neuropathy.
</em>
- <em>Serotonin: deficit of this neurotransmitter can lead to depression and psychological disorders.</em>
-The number of B cells producing the antibody is proportional to the concentration of that antibody.
-On day 16, one out of 100000 B cells are specific for antigen A
\frac{1}{100000} = 1 x 10⁻⁵ B cells
- on day 16, Antibody concentration is 2 × 10¹= 20 Antibodies
- on day 36, antibody concentration 8 × 10³.= 8000
20 antibodies ------------ 1 x 10⁻⁵ B cells
8000 antibodies--------------x
x= (8000 x 1 x 10⁻⁵)/ 20
x= 4x10⁻³ or 1 in 250 are <span>B cells specific for antigen A</span>
Answer:
T and B cells.
Explanation:
Adaptive immunity is the kind of immunity that you acquire after exposure to an antigen (pathogen or vaccine), it involves memory in order to facilitate a quick response if there's a reinfection with the same pathogen.<em> T cells are responsible for the cell-mediated response while the B cells are responsible for the humoral response.</em> Both of these cells are specific to the pathogen's structure, therefore they can kill it directly.
