The beneficial uses of bacterial toxins in medicine are more and more used lately. For example, Botulinum toxin is a toxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum which has paralytic effects (injection of this toxin into muscle relax specific muscles). Botulinum toxin accomplishes his effects on the neuromuscular junction where he prevents the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (Ach). Utilization of this toxin is in the treatment of various muscle spasms. It is also used in the treatment of migraines. Diphtheria toxin is also one of the toxins used for medical purposes for the treatment of cutaneous and non-Hodgkin T-cell lymphomas. <span>Some bacterial toxins can be used in the treatment of tumours. For example, immunotoxin, which is protein made by fusion of modified antibody and toxin.The antibody binds to an antigen on the target cell, the toxin then enters via endocytosis and kills the cell. Commonly used bacterial toxins in immunotoxins are Diphtheria toxin and the Pseudomonas exotoxin.</span>
Answer:
Slow-twitch
Explanation:
Red meat is rich in slow-twitch muscle fibers. The slow-twitch muscle fibers are rich in myoglobin and blood capillaries. They also have many large mitochondria to generate ATP by aerobic respiration.
These fibers are slow-twitch fibers as the ATPase in myosin head carries out the hydrolysis of ATP at a slower rate causing a slower contraction cycle.
Slow-twitch fibers appear red due to a large amount of myoglobin and a rich network of blood vessels. They are capable of prolonged contractions and are fatigue resistant.
2 or more different atoms are combined in definite proportions in any compound.
Answer:
Nucleotide bases.
Explanation:
Unique sequences of bases makes up a nucleotide. These nucleotide sequencing are used by DNA as a genetic code of information that determines type of cells, proteins and the whole organismal structure.
There are four nucleotide bases, Adenine and guanine termed purines are big, cytosine and thymine called pyrimidines are small. A purine pairs with a pyrimidine, such that adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine. The bases are the same but each DNA uniqueness lies in the sequence of base pairing.
