The correct answer is that "the T cell enters a state of anergy".

The activation of T cells requires two signals: (1) antigen specific signal presented by an antigen presenting cell (either a macrophage or a dendritic cell) that activates t cell receptors and (2) co-stimulatory signals that is not antigen specific but rather found in the plasma membrane of the antigen presenting cell (i.e. CD28). In the absence of a co-stimulatory signal, the t cell will enter a state of anergy or the inability to produce an immune response toward an offending antigen.

Which statement best explains how two identical copies of a very large molecule can be made during DNA replication?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer: B. DNA polymerase checks for errors in base pairing as it helps new DNA strands form.

Explanation: DNA polymerase is an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of a new DNA strand from a DNA template. This process is known as replication. During replication, DNA polymerase rejects incorrect bases before the phosphodiester bond is formed because it has a 3' -> 5' exonuclease activity that double checks every nucleotide that is added to the growing strand. This check allows the enzyme to remove a newly added mismatched base pair.

Air at the equator is warm and has a ______density, which creates ________ in comparison to the air at the poles.
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Lower, low pressure

Explanation:

The temperature at equator are mostly higher than at the poles almost all times of year. This high temperature causes air at the equator to warm up quickly and thus, the air density reduces and it becomes lighter. Now, light air rises upwards. Thus, creating a low pressure region at equators. This low pressure causes the air near the poles gush towards the equator.

Hence, the blanks will be filled with the words

Lower, low pressure.
