Answer:
Place a glowing splint in the test tube, and if it reignites, it could be oxygen. Place a burning splint into a test tube, and if it goes out, it could be carbon dioxide. Or, place carbon dioxide gas in limewater, and if it turns milky and gets chunks, it is carbon dioxide.
Mechanical stress applied to bone increases osteoblast activity in bone tissue, and the removal of mechanical stress decreases osteoblast activity.
Explanation:
Osteoblasts are cells , that are produced in the bone marrow and are responsible for formation of bones and bone matrix.
Whenever a mechanical stress is applied on the bones , a series of reactions are triggered. As a result the activities of osteoblast increases to synthesize more and more bone matrix to provide strength.
Again on the other hand a decrease in mechanical causes a decrease in the activities of the osteoblasts.
Hello, I figured your question was missing its options so I went online to find them. Here they are:
The process of phagocytosis involves all of the following EXCEPT
:
a. adhesion.
b. secretion of cytotoxins.
c. elimination.
d. vesicle fusion.
e. chemotaxis.
Answer:
The correct answer is: b) secretion of cytotoxins.
Explanation:
Phagocytosis is a mechanism performed by cells in which the plasma membrane engulfs a large particle. Phagocytosis is used by cells in the immune system to ingest pathogens like viruses and bacteria.
Phagocytosis consists of many steps:
- activation
- the phagocytes that were resting are activated in the inflammatory response when a pathogen enters the body.
- chemotaxis - this refers to the process in which the phagocyte moves to the pathogen by following the chemical factors released by these germs.
- adhesion - the phagocyte attaches to the pathogen.
- ingestion
/vesicle fusion - the phagocyte sends pseudopods to engulf the pathogen, and places it in a phagosome, which is an endocytic vesicle. The phagosome and the phagocyte will fuse so the pathogen gets inside.
- elimination - the pathogen is destroyed in the phagocyte by the lysosomes present in it.
<u>The</u><u> secretion of cytotoxins</u><u> is not a part of the phagocytosis, and is a process exclusive to </u><u>T cells</u><u> (leukocytes that lack the ability to phagocyte).</u>
I guess its DNA. DNA is the information code of the cell
