The pinkish hue of individuals with fair skin is the result of the crimson color of oxygenated hemoglobin (contained in red blood cells) circulating in the dermal capillaries and reflecting through the epidermis- is a <u>true</u> statement.
Explanation:
The color of skin of an individual is due to the presence of three main pigments present in the integumentary system – melanin, hemoglobin, and carotene.
Melanin released by the melanocytes gives a black to brown complexion depending upon the number of pigments present.
Carotene obtained through dietary sources gets accumulated in dermal layers and gives a yellow-orange tinge to the complexion.
The hemoglobin, which contains the red colored pigment ‘heme’ is the reason for the pink hue of fair skinned people. This hemoglobin present in the dermal capillaries running through the entire length integumentary system adds the unique pink hue to the fair complexion. So higher levels of oxygenated blood and skin blood perfusion lead to bright skin coloration.
Answer:
d. Humans and other animal hosts lack peptidoglycan cell walls.
Explanation:
Humans and other animals lack cell walls. Bacterial cells have peptidoglycan cell walls around them. The absence of cell walls in the cells of human and other animal host ensures that these cells are not affected by the drugs that target the peptidoglycan cell walls to kill or slow down the growth of the bacterial pathogen.
This makes the drugs specifically target the bacterial cells only while not affecting the host cells. If a drug would target a component present in cells of both the pathogens and hosts, the host cells would be most likely to be harmed by the drugs.
The first thing to do is activate
EMS. Use cool or cold water to cool the burn for 10 minutes as soon as
possible. ( Do not use ice or frozen compress.) Early cooling will minimize the
depth of injury and decrease pain. Remove jewelry near the affected area. Cover
the injury with dry, clean pad loosely
to protect it. Do not give food or drink to injured person. Keep him comfortable
until EMS arrives and takes over.
Answer:
Germ cell DNA
Explanation:
mutations that are present in other body cells do not get passed onto offspring. if the mutations are present in a germ cell it does get passed onto offspring
