Answer:

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is more common in Caucasian individuals and is inherited with an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a condition of genetic origin, which affects organs such as the lungs, pancreas, intestine and liver. CF is characterized by the production of very thick and viscous mucus, and promotes the formation of cysts and fibrosis of the affected organs.

CF is an inherited disease that is transmitted in an autosomal recessive pattern, that is, the altered gene is required to be on both chromosomes of the allelic pair, in order to be expressed.

It is a very common disease in Caucasian individuals, especially those of European descent.

The following are the steps for B-cell activation. The steps are in an incorrect order.
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

4. B cells become activated by interacting with helper T cells.  

1. B cells display antigens in MHC class II receptors on the cell surface.  

2. Antibodies released by plasma cells bind to the antigen so they will be destroyed by other cells of the immune system.

3.B cells rearrange their DNA to create a unique B-cell receptor.  

5. B cells undergo clonal expansion.

6. B cells digest antigens that bind to the antibodies on their surface.

Explanation:

B-cells get activated by interacting with helper T cells when they bind to the antigen to receptors i.e (MHC class II receptors on the cell surface) on the surface of the cell. Series of activities such as release by plasma cells which cause rearrangement of B cells causes the cell to divide and proliferate. The process through which daughter cells arise from a parent cell called clonal expansion.

The ATP molecule can be considered a form of chemical energy because?
Wittaler [7]

Answer: The correct answer is A) It stores the energy from the glucose in the bonds between the phosphate groups.

ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) is considered as a form of chemical energy as the energy is stored in the high energy phosphoanhydride bonds, which are present between phosphate.

Whenever a body requires energy, glucose is metabolized and produces ATP. The energy from glucose molecule is stored in the ATP.

When ATP is hydrolyzed, it is converted into ADP ( adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate and the large amount of energy is released.
