Answer:
characterized by presence or absence of antigens
the blood types are A, B, O, AB
Explanation:
There are two antigens and two antibodies that are mostly responsible for the ABO types. The specific combination of these four components determines an individual's type in most cases. Erythrocytes and serum were related to the presence of antigens on these erythrocytes and antibodies in the serum. these antigens are A and B, and depending upon which antigen the erythrocytes express, blood either belonged to blood group A or blood group B. A third blood group contained erythrocytes that reacted as if they lacked the properties of A and B, and this group was later called "O" blood group. The fourth blood group AB, was added to the ABO blood group system. These erythrocytes expressed both A and B antigens.
Blood group Antigen present on RBC Antibodies in serum Genotype(s)
A antigen A anti-B AA or AO
B antigen B anti-A BB or BO
AB both A and B antigen none AB
O none anti-A and anti-B OO
Answer:
All of these choices are correct.
Explanation:
Cell cycle is the process of growth and division of cell. It comprises of interphase and mitosis. In interphase the cell grows, replicates its genomic content and prepares itself for division. In mitosis the division occurs.
Cell cycle is controlled by a group of kinases called as Cyclin dependent Kinases (CDKs). They act by phosphorylating their substrates. They are of various types like Cdk1, Cdk2, Cdk4 etc. They become active when they bind to a regulatory protein called cyclin. They are also of various types like Cyclin A, Cyclin B, Cyclin C etc. Level of cyclin and corresponding CDK increases and decreases according to the stage of cell cycle. For example in S phase of cell cycle concentration of cyclin A and E shoots up. CDK2 is able to bind to these cyclin molecules and hence it becomes active.
Cell cycle has major checkpoints where the condition of cell is analysed before it proceeds to the next stage of cycle. If any abnormality is detected, repair mechanism is activated or the cell is killed. Checkpoints do not allow cell cycle to proceed in damaged cells.
p53 is a tumor suppressor protein which can halt cell cycle when it detects some abnormality in cell. It usually acts in G1/S checkpoint (before the DNA replication starts in cell) and G2/M checkpoint (before the cell division begins). Hence, all of the above statements are true.
<span>Alternation of generation is what happens in the asexual reproduction of vascular plants in their gametes, as haploid cells that came from their gametes, spores fertilizes another plant becomes a diploid cell in the process.
In terms of vascular plants, they help maintain the water cycle. The property of these plants enables them to carry out this function is their well-developed vascular system. These type of plants are more evolved and developed than nonvascular plants because of its specialized characteristics like xylem, which is a tissue that is responsible for its framework and not only that, it is also has a greater mechanism for water transference. Another is phloem, which is responsible for food conduction.<span>
