<u>Answer</u>: <em>Option 2</em> foreign antigens

<u>Explanation</u>:

<em>Antigens</em> are proteins that are found on the surface of a pathogen and <em>white blood cells </em>(leukocytes) are the cells of the immune system which helps fight infection and protect the body from foreign antigens.

Whenever a foreign antigen enters the body, a type of white blood cell called as the lymphocyte recognizes it and then produces antibodies against it, to generate an immune response.

So, <em>an immune response is primarily due to white blood cells recognizing foreign antigens.</em>

Which of the following statements about translation is FALSE?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

e. All of the above are False.

Explanation:

A tRNA is a transfer RNA that carries amino acid from the cell pool to the mRNA-ribosome complex. The anticodon sequence of tRNA is complementary to the mRNA codons and bind to the respective amino acids. None of the tRNA has anticodon for stop codons and therefore, as soon as the ribosome reaches stop codon, protein translation terminates.

AUG is the initiation codon for protein synthesis and codes for methionine when present at a site other than the start site. The initiation codon is often preceded by an untranslated sequence, also called leader sequence. The ribosome moves along the mRNA in 5' to 3' direction in a GTP dependent manner to facilitate elongation of the polypeptide chain.

Prader-Willi syndrome is a genetic disorder involving a partial deletion of chromosome 15q on the paternal chromosome. When both
Kay [80]

Answer:

genomic imprinting

Explanation:

Genomic imprinting is a mechanism for regulating gene expression that allows expression of only one of the parental alleles, although both alleles are functional. Unlike most genes in which expression is biallelic, genes that are subjected to this mechanism (imprinted genes) have monoalelic expression; By definition, in an imprinted loci, only one allele is active (maternal or paternal), and the inactive is epigenetically marked by histonic modification and / or methylation of cytosines.

Genomic imprinting can cause some disturbances, among them Prader-Willi syndrome, which is a genetic disorder that involves a partial deletion of chromosome 15q on the paternal chromosome.

What letter represents summer where you live?
AURORKA [14]

I live in letter D in summer and letter B in winter.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

In the diagram the letter D represents the summer solstice and the letter B represents the winter solstice. But the letter A and C represents the equinoxes that are present in the month of March and September. Here in India the country lies above tropic of Cancer. So the condition here is like the temperate region. So during summer the sun's rays directly fall on the country as well as during winter the country receives oblique sun rays. Thus from the diagram we can see see that the letter B represents the condition of earth when the sun's rays are not directly falling on earth. So it's winter solstice .

In the letter D we can see that the earth is going through the summer solstice because sun's rays are directly falling on the earth. So it's summer at that time.
