6 0

Answer:

Larger ships transport invasive species in their ballast water, while fouling organisms such as barnacles, seaweeds and mussels can move from one location to another by hitching, a ride on a boat, on items you use in the water and even your clothes

<h2>GREETINGS!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2>

<u>ANSWER</u><u>:</u>

<h2><u>DEFINITIONS</u></h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3><u>VOLUNTARY MUSCLES:</u></h3>

Voluntary muscles are those muscles which work under our conscious control and can be controlled at will also we can choose choose them when to use and when not to use. These are simply SKELETAL MUSCLES attached to the bone, so all the movements of hand and legs and whatever u do are because of voluntary muscles.

<h3><u>__________________________________________________</u></h3><h3><u>INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES:</u></h3>

the muscles in the human body that do not work under our will and we cant control them. They are mainly controlled by the autonomic nervous system in the body. So, involuntary muscles include all the muscles whose activity which is not controlled by our NERVES. They are also called SMOOTH MUSCLES since they are present as the visceral layer over the organs.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>DIFFERENCES</h2>

1)      VOLUNTARY MUSCLES are under our control but INVOLUNTARY                 MUSCLES are not under our control

2)      VOLUNTARY MUSCLES are also known as skeletal muscles but INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES are also known as smooth muscles

3)      VOLUNTARY MUSCLES are attached to the bones in the body, but INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES are attached to the soft hollow internal organs.

4)      VOLUNTARY MUSCLES are controlled by the somatic nervous system. INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES are controlled by the autonomic nervous system.

5)      VOLUNTARY MSUCLES  require more energy. INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES require less energy.

Define the 3 signals for activation and the 3 outcomes of the complement system.\
sp2606 [1]
* More than 40 proteins and glycoproteins involved in the complement system are synthesized by the liver, macrophages, epithelial cells, they are present in the blood in plasmatic form, membrane, some have an enzymatic activity, regulator or membrane receptorThese are elements of the humoral innate immune response, they fight infections, purify immune complexes and apoptotic bodies.
<span>There are indeed three ways to activate the complement:</span>
Classical pathway: Activated by Immunoglobulins in immune complexes, aggregated Immunoglobulins, DNA, CRP, apoptotic bodies .......it involves nine fractions, starting with C1, then C4, C2, C3, to form a classical C5 convertase, then, activation of C5, C6, C7, C8, C9.

Alternative pathway: activated by polysaccharides (bacterial endotoxin), vascular wall poor in sialic acid, aggregated IgE ...C3b like is the first component in the alternate channel cascade, it will create an amplification loop, and form an alternative C5 convertase.

Lecithin pathway: Activated by mannose, fucose (carbohydrate of microorganisms)The first component is the complex MBL / MASP1 / MASP2: "mannose-binding protein": works according to the same principle as the complex C1 of the classical way (MASP2 cleaves the C4 and the rest of the cascade is equivalent to that of the classical way).

the three ways have the same outcome: A C5 convertase (formed by one of the pathways) cleaves C5 into C5a and C5b: C5b is deposited far from other fractions on the antigenic surface. The fixation of C5b in the cell is followed by that of C6, C7, C8, and C9 (9 molecules of C9): formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) ==> Death of the cell by osmotic shock

The gastrovascular cavity differs from the alimentary canal in that only the gastrovascular cavity _____.
wlad13 [49]
The answer is single opening. The gastrovascular cavity varies from the alimentary canal in that only the gastrovascular cavity has only a single opening. In addition, an alimentary canal has two openings and food moves over it unidirectional. The gastrovascular cavity is a construction establish in primitive animal phyla. It is accountable in cooperation with the digestion of food and the transportation of nutrients all over the body.
