Biology
1 answer:
spin [16.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Why are cells small? because they can absorb nutrients much more efficiently. Because they are smaller they can efficiently absorb enough food. When a cell doubles in size the volume increases much more then the surface area, which is why large cells cannot receive enough food efficiently for their volume.

Answer:

Mark pathogenic cells for destruction. (Ans. B)

Explanation:

Antibodies are generated by the plasma cells, and once these secreted, they attach quickly to the surface of the toxin and stop the toxin from infecting the normal body cell by blocking key extracellular sites.

Antibodies also help to mark pathogens for destruction by the help of macrophages or neutrophils and they are known as phagocytic cells because they are highly excited to macro-molecules complexed with antibodies.

Anni [7]

Answer:

When organisms use urea, ammonia is generated during incubation, which makes the reaction of these media alkaline

Explanation:

Urea broth preparation:

Suspend 3.87 grams of the medium in 100 ml of distilled water without heating. When the powder dissolves, sterilize by filtration. Dispense quantities of 0.5 to 2 ml in small sterile tubes. Larger volumes may be used but the reactions will be slower. Do not sterilize in autoclave.

Do not boil the medium.

If no filter is available, the medium can be sterilized at 100-110 ° C for 10 minutes. If the medium is prepared and inoculated immediately, it provides good results without sterilization.
