Answer:

Mark pathogenic cells for destruction. (Ans. B)

Explanation:

Antibodies are generated by the plasma cells, and once these secreted, they attach quickly to the surface of the toxin and stop the toxin from infecting the normal body cell by blocking key extracellular sites.

Antibodies also help to mark pathogens for destruction by the help of macrophages or neutrophils and they are known as phagocytic cells because they are highly excited to macro-molecules complexed with antibodies.

What if the sun disappears one fine day ?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Explanation:

Sun plays an important role in our solar system especially planet like earth are dependent on sun for food, water and air. Sun helps to balance the ecosystem on earth.

18. RNAi is a technique that silences genes by targeting them and degrading their mRNA. How can this technique be used in scient
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

RNAi is a cellular mechanism for post-transcriptional gene silencing. After transcription of a gene into mRNA, small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) can target the mRNA to form dsRNA. This mRNA then becomes a target of ribonucleases such as the Dicer that break it apart. These mRNA, therefore, do not reach the cytoplasm for translation by ribosomes. This mechanism is hence harnessed and manipulated by scientists to study genes by silencing them.
