<span>Some 120 prescription drugs sold worldwide today are derived directly from rainforest plants. And according to the U.S. National Cancer Institute, more than two-thirds of all medicines found to have cancer-fighting properties come from rainforest plants. Examples abound. Ingredients obtained and synthesized from a now-extinct periwinkle plant found only in Madagascar (until deforestation wiped it out) have increased the chances of survival for children with leukemia from 20 percent to 80 percent.</span>
Answer:
B) Coating of microbe to aid phagocyte recognition
Explanation:
Opsonization is the process and mechanism which targets the foreign body and helps in the recognition of the pathogen by the phagocytic cells such as the macrophages and dendritic cell.
The opsonization enhances the process of phagocytosis as the opsonin substances which could be the antibodies, proteins or other molecules which could be easily recognised by the phagocytic cells gets attached to the pathogen.
Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
Opsonization is the coating of a particle with proteins that facilitate phagocytosis of the particle by tissue macrophages and activated follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) as well as binding by receptors on peripheral blood cells
That would be called <span>Defecation.</span>
Answer:
Scientists use a shared system for reporting measurements called the International System of Units (SI). We use common measurement systems because science involves a lot of replication (i.e., repetition) to confirm results.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "frameshift mutations".
Explanation:
The reading frame of a gene is based on base-pair triplets, starting from the start codon until the ribosome encounters with the end codon. Base-pair additions and deletions are collectively referred to as frameshift mutations because they alter the reading frame of the gene. Base-pair additions and deletions break down the original sequence of the gene triplets, which alters the open reading frame and usually results in the production of non active proteins.
