Answer:

1) Antibodies are secreted into the blood and mucosa, where they bind to and inactivate foreign substances such as pathogens and toxins (neutralization).

2) Antibodies activate the complement system to destroy bacterial cells by lysis (punching holes in the cell wall).

LekaFEV [45]

When a butter is treated with fatty acid desaturase, the hydrogen atom will be removed and form a carbon double bond, which allow the membrane to become more fluid. When temperatures change, a phase transition occurs. If the temperature decrease, the membrane gels becomes solid which then results to cracks and the imbedded proteins cannot partake in conformational changes, thus it is important to maintain membrane fluidity.

How has the response to hurricanes changed since the Galveston hurricane?
shutvik [7]
Hello there :)

I would say the answer is C. People are more aware of the dangers, so they are more likely to evacuate an area that is in the path of a hurricane


There was much devastation during the hurricanes. Belongings, Houses, Properties, an even Lives were taken by these disasters. This opened the communities' eyes more as to the effect that a natural disaster can have, and it helped people to realize the severity of the warnings that are given.

Hope this helps and have a wonderful day!

Histologically, what feature is shared by all tonsils but is absent in other malt nodules?
ira [324]

Crypts Feature is shared by all tonsils but is absent in other malt nodules. Anatomical structures called crypts are deep, narrow incisions into larger structures. The Crypts of Lieberkühn are a typical type of anatomical crypt.

It is not the only form of the tonsil, though; some tonsils also feature crypts. The deep regions of these tonsils are accessible to the outside world through these crypts, making them more susceptible to infection. An intestinal gland, also known as a Lieberkühn crypt or intestinal crypt, is a gland that can be found in the small and large intestines' intestinal epithelium between villi (or colon).

The epithelium that covers the glans and intestinal villi are made up of a variety of cells, including enterocytes (which absorb water and electrolytes), goblet cells (which secrete mucus), enteroendocrine cells (which secrete hormones), cup cells, tuft cells, and Paneth cells (which secrete antimicrobial peptides) and stem cells at the base of the gland.
