Answer:
According to Dr. Ray Schiling (member of the American Academy of Anti-aging medicine) about 1.5 million people suffer from peanut allergies. The seeds of peanut (<em>Arachis hypogea</em>) contain an array of allergens that can induce the production of IgE specific antibodies predisposed individuals. Ara1 and Ara2 are most common seed storage protein that cause allergy. Other allergen proteins such as Ara3 to Ara 17 have also been identified that cause allergy.
Entry of peanut allergen into body
When peanut allergens enter the body of an individuals it leads to development of different symptoms like itchy skin, tingling sensation, nausea, runny nose and anaphylaxis.
Allergic response
There are two subsets of T-cells Th1 and Th2. Both invoke different response to allergens. Th1 direct a non-allergic response while Th2 direct allergic response ranging from releasing of histamine to anaphylactic response. The presence of IL-12 cytokines direct a Th1 based, nonspecific response.
Mechanism of allergic response (interaction between helper T cell and B cell)
Step 1.
When allergen enter to body they are encountered by B cells. Immunoglobulin receptors on the surface of B cells recognize antigen (Peanut allergens) and get attached, which are then internalized and processed. Within B cells the fragments of antigens combine with HLA class 2 proteins.
Step 2
HLA class 2 with antigen fragments (peanut allergens) then display on the surface of B cells.
Step 3
Receptors on the surface of helper T cells recognizes the complex of HLA class 2 and antigen fragments (peanut allergen) and is activated to produce cytokines, which activate the B cells.
Step 4
B cell is activated by cytokines and begins clonal expansion. Some of the progeny become anti-body producing plasma cells while other become memory B cells.
Cigarette smoking decreases speed in track runner, due to the fact that their lungs have black spots. Making it harder for them to breathe. And harder to breathe causing slowing in speed.
The answer is D. All of the choices pertain to living organisms
The answer has to be C. karyotyping
If it is correct please give brainest if not I will fix it.
This is the image it came up with when I was searching for karyotyping.
<h2>Mitotic Cell Cycle</h2>
Explanation:
a. Cytochalasin: an inhibitor of actin microfilament
- Cytokinesis is the process by which cytoplasm is divided into two cells hence generation of two daughter cells
- In animal cells the division of cytoplasm starts with the assembly of contractile ring
- Contractile band consists of actin and myosin and catalyze cleavage furrow formation
- Cytochalasin is a drug that blocks the polymerization of actin filament
- When cytochalasin is added dividing cell fails to undergo in cytokinesis due to defective assembly of contractile band
b. Colchicine: an inhibitor of microtubule formation
- Colchicine tightly binds with free tubulin dimer and prevents its polymerization
- In this case mitotic spindle apparatus do not assemble and cells unable to do partitioning of chromosomes into two groups
- Thus cell division is arrested
c. Aphidicolin: an inhibitor of DNA Polymerase activity
- Aphidicolin is used to induce cell cycle arrest via specific inhibition of DNA Polymerase α
- It blocks the cell cycle at early synthesis(S) phase
d. Emetine: an inhibitor of ribosome activity
- It blocks the protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells by binding to small subunit(40 S) of ribosomes
- It interferes with the synthesis and activities of DNA and RNA
