Answer:

B. Genetically engineered mammalian cells

Explanation:

Herceptin is a monoclonal antibody that binds (attach) to specific antigens in cancer cells to destroy them. This antibody is used in the treatment of different types of cancers including breast and gastric carcinoma, in which HER2/neu protein is overexpressed. Herceptin targets HER2/neu receptors present in cancer cells to kill them. HER2/neu is a protein signaling receptor involved in cell proliferation, thereby this antibody works to selectively target cells that have an excess of HER2/neu receptors such as gastric and breast cancer cells.

Select the correct mechanism of stomatal opening and closing.A) The radial orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell wal
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

A) The radial orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell walls of guard cells causes them to bow outward and open when the stomatal pore when turgid.

Explanation:

Stomata are pores on the surface of leaves that work as valves controlling the gas exchange in plants; they are bordered by a pair of curved guarded cells in charge of opening and closing by increasing or decreasing the stomatal pore area.

Guard cells walls structure consist of a combination of stiff cellulose microfibrils oriented along the circumference of the cells and a softer matrix material which makes it possible for stomata pore to open by increasing water pressure (turgor).  

Option B states that when guard cells become turgid, they close the stomata. This is a false statement as we explained before.

Option C states that light (known stimulant for opening stomata) causes guard cells to become flaccid which is also false. Guard cells become turgid in order to open the stomatal pore.

Option A is correct.
