C. Removing this step decreases the amount of carbon in the air: This is correct, removing factories would decrease the emission of greenhouse gases, thus decreasing CO2 in the atmosphere.
Explanation:
When we look at the picture we can see that the line that goes from G to C, goes from a factory to the atmosphere. As we know factories release a great number of elements into the atmosphere being one of them, carbon dioxide. Therefore taking into consideration we can proceed to analyze the following statements.
A. Removing this step prevents photosynthesis in the next step: This is not true industry increases carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, even if they don't exist there is enough CO2 for plants to perform photosynthesis.
B.Removing this step increases the amount of carbon in the soil: This is not true as factories release carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, not the soil.
C. Removing this step decreases the amount of carbon in the air: This is correct, removing factories would decrease the emission of greenhouse gases, thus decreasing CO2 in the atmosphere.
D. Removing this step increases carbon storage in plants: This is incorrect the carbon storage in plants is cording to their necessities independently of the abundance in CO2, in the atmosphere.
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
