Biology
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

This model can be called a parasitic relationship

Explanation:

A <em>parasitic relationship is a form of relationship/interaction between two organisms in which one organism (called parasite) lives at the expense of the other organism (called host); causing harm or death to the host</em>.

A hornworm caterpillar feeds on the upper part of tomato plant leaves, causing harm to the plant in the process. Hence, <u>the tomato plant is the host while the hornworm caterpillar is the parasite.</u>

.......is secreted into the bloodstream, whereas _____ is secreted into mucus such as gastrointestinal fluid, colostrum, saliva, tears, and sweat:

a. Monomeric IgM; pentameris IgM

b. Monomeric IgA; dimeric IgA

c. Monomeric IgA; dimeric IgM

d. Dimeric IgA; monomeric IgA

Answer:

b. Monomeric IgA; dimeric IgA

Explanation:

IgA is a class of antibodies that are found mainly in body secretions. In sweat, tears, saliva, mucus, breast milk, and gastrointestinal secretions, IgA is secreted as a monomeric antibody. Smaller quantities of this class of antibodies are also present in blood and lymph. However, IgA is present in a dimeric form in the bloodstream. It makes up 10–15% of all antibodies in the blood. The main function of this class of antibodies is to give localized protection of mucous membranes against bacteria and viruses.

What is denitrification
nadezda [96]

Explanation:

Denitrification is basically a biochemical phenomenon where nitrate is used by the bacteria living in the soil for the process of their respiration instead of using Oxygen from the air, consequently, the nitrates are converted into nitrous oxide and nitrogen gas. The process of denitrification is accelerated mostly in the wet and warm soil where there is lot of nitrate available.

This process is exhibited by Alkaligenes, Pseudomonas and Bacillus etc. Most of the bacteria involved in this process are facultative aerobially heterophs who has the ability of switching to denitrification from normal respiration when they find that the normal oxygen is running out.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Acinous secretory pancreatic cells.

Explanation:

Secretory pancreatic cells are organized in sac-shape structures called acini. These structures are conformed of acinous cells and center-acinous cells that secrete digestive enzymes into the intestine

Acinous cells are secretory pyramidal-shaped cells with a rouned and basal nucleus. Their cytoplasm is basophil and shows a high endoplasmic reticulum activity, as it is in charge of synthesizing the secretory enzymes.

Center-acinous cells collect secretions from acinous cells and conform ducts to where they vert all these secretions destined to be released into the intestine.
