Answer:

c)cytotoxic T cell is the correct answer.

Explanation:

On the surface of the Cytotoxic T cell, TCR's receptors and a cluster of differentiation (CD8) receptors are present.

The cells infected by a virus produce viral proteins and these viral protein are present on their membrane

Cytotoxic T cells kill the virus-infected cell when their receptors TCR's match with the viral antigen and as they recognize the cell infected with the virus they produce cytokines that eliminate the infection.

Thus cytotoxic T cell recognizes and destroys cells infected by a virus.

Which valves produce the second heart sound when they snap shut?
Taya2010 [7]
Answer: D) Pulmonary and aortic valves.

Explanation
There are two main heartbeats from a healthy heart.

The first beat is called the S1 or the lub, and it occurs when the atrioventricular valves (comprising the mitral and tricuspid valves) close.

The second beat is called the S2 or the dub, and it occurs when the semilunar valves (comprising the aortic and pulmonary valves) close.

Listening for heart beats is an essential part of cardiac auscultation.
