An obligatory parasite is a parasite that can not complete its life cycle without exploiting a suitable host
Answer:
) Presence of specific glycoproteins on the cell membrane
Explanation:
When specif glycoproteins(antigens) or antibody are present on a cell membrane of Red blood cell,they can be used to identify the blood type.Antigens are substances capable of triggering an immune response in a cells.
In addition,they function in transport of molecules across the RBC. They help in the maintenance of the RBC,and aiding the arrest of cells capable of causing diseases to the body.
Therefore,they are good determinants of blood types,based on this two types of antigens present in a blood type.
These two antigens used for classification of blood types are the 1-the ABO antigens 2,the Rhesus antigens.
Essentially,when a WBC produces an antibody ,which is a molecule that defends the body,If this is not compatible,the antibody will recognize it as a foreign body and attack it.Thus such blood types are not compatible. Thus the antibody-antigen reaction are good for knowing and classify blood types.
Antigen can also be glycoprotein,carbohydrate or glycolipids.
Generally blood types are inherited from both parents.Therefore the antigen present on the RBC are combination of the alleles from each parent.
Carbonate groups contain a single carbon atom, and three oxygen atoms in a trigonal molecular geometry. The carbon atom has two single bonds to two oxygen atoms and a double bond to the third oxygen atom. Therefore, in addition to carbon, carbonate minerals contain oxygen. An example of a carbonate mineral is calcium carbonate, often found within rocks.
The options attached to this question are given below:
A. contains mostly needle-leaved evergreen trees.
B. is home to herds of giraffes, zebras, and wildebeests.
C. receives less than 25 cm of precipitation per year.
D. has low-growing; touch shrubs and rock, dry soils
.
ANSWER
The correct option is D.
The chappral biome is one of the most widespread biome in the world, it can be found on almost all continents. The major characteristic of the biome include the following:
It has both forest and grassland,
It has two major seasons, winter and summer; the summer season is usually very dry and last for about five months.
The dry summer makes the biome sensitive to fire outbreak, which is a common occurrence there.
The amount of rain available to the biome is about 10 - 17 inches per year and is only able to support shrubs growth, only few trees can be found in the biome.
The biome can be a plain, a rolling hill or a mountain and the soil is usually very dry.
Their fur color is very similar to the color of the bark on the eucalyptus tree.
