8 0

Answer:

Glycoproteins

Explanation:

Phagocytes are a type of white blood cell that use phagocytosis to engulf bacteria, foreign particles, and dying cells to protect the body.

And thereby forming an internal compartment called a phagosome. This process is known as Phagocytosis.

Examples of phagocytes are monocytes and macrophages, granulocytes, and dendritic cells.

Glycoproteins are known to be proteins that have sugars attached to them. They are very important because, they help the immune, digestive, and reproductive systems.

The phagocytes carry out their activities by attaching their plasma membrane to the glycoproteins of the microorganisms. This is to destroy the major activities that are responsible for the survival of the organism, and subsequently kill the organism.

I believe the answer is none of these. The mousterian is defined by stone-knapping known as levallois. Mousterian burials are supported by morturt behavior and are not complex.

What are hydrogen bonds caused by?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonding is caused by the tendency of some atoms in molecules to attract electrons more than their accompanying atom. This gives the molecule a permanent dipole moment – it makes it polar – so it acts like a magnet and attracts the opposite end of other polar molecules.
