It’s easy to find chemicals that kill bacteria. The challenge is that it’s much more difficult to discover and develop substances that are not also toxic to humans. The path from discovery to clinically approved medicine is necessarily long and the failure rate is high.

A response that is uniquely directed against pathogenic bordetella pertussis would involve what component?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Antibodies

Explanation:

Bordetella pertussis is an obligate human pathogen and is the etiological agent of whooping cough. It is known to be an opportunistic organism.

The pathogenic mechanism of Bordetella pertussis is also known as virulence factor. These virulence factors are known to include adhesins such as filamentous haemagglutinin, fimbriae and pertactin, which allow B. pertussis to bind to ciliated epithelial cells in the upper respiratory tract.

It is known to be the agent of whooping cough, a highly contagious respiratory disease, dramatic for infants and also for elderly and pregnant women.

In this case, the antibodies will be the response that is uniquely directed against the organism. It is said earlier that this organism is an opportunistic one, this means that it causes infection when the immunity is down. So, when the immunity is empowered , it will definitely fight against the organism

Describe the change which will occur if a piece of peeled potato is placed in a concentrated sugar solution and explain why this
skelet666 [1.2K]

Through the process of Osmosis, water will move from a region of high water potential ('concentration') to low water potential. Therefore, water will slowly leave the cells of the potato and enter the sugar solution in an attempt to reach equilibrium and the potato will therefore lose mass.
