What are monoclonal antibodies and how do they work?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Monoclonal antibodies can treat cancer as well as other illness such as the coronavirus by mimicking the body's immune system. They recognize and target specific proteins on cells. Some on cancer cells by basically blocking signals that tell cancer cells to divide.

write a short story on the journey of a sperm cell seeking to enter in a egg cell to share life together as a zygote and beyond​

Answers

(See the attached picture)

Direction: Write a short story on the journey of a sperm cell seeking to enter in a egg cell to share life together as a zygote and beyond.

Answer:

The goal of the sperms’ journey to the egg is to fertilize it. To do so, the sperm cell must pass through a long and challenging path. This is one of the reasons why the total number of motile sperm cells is very important, and a key parameter for a man’s potential to reach pregnancy with his partner.

The sperms’ journey to the egg begins with millions of sperm cells that are released into the female reproductive tract during intercourse. The sperm cells gain their full ability to swim when they are ejaculated into the reproductive tract.

Upon ejaculation, the sperm cells are enclosed in a fluid called seminal plasma or semen, which is a mix of fluids from the testes, seminal vesicles, prostate, and the bulbourethral glands. The fluid contains elements which protect the sperm cells during their journey towards the egg. The semen thickens and helps the sperm cells stay inside the woman – as close as possible to the cervix, which is the “gate” to the egg.

Liquid extends from the cervix, allowing the sperm cells from the semen to swim into the cervix. Only the strongest sperm cells will make it this far. Once through the cervix, the sperm cells swim across the uterus and into the fallopian tubes.

I hope it helps!!

The sperm cell fertilizes the egg and forms a zygote, which is further divided into multiple cells and becomes a child. The division is the process of mitosis that takes place from the zygote to the child's development.

How is the zygote formed and developed?

The sperm and the ovum are produced by the process of meiosis from the male and female, respectively, and when both fertilize, the zygote is formed. The fertilized zygote is a single cell, but later that cell is further divided mitotically and forms a morula, then a blastula, and then the gastrula.

The cells of the gastrula undergo cell differentiation, different organs are developed, and the baby is finally formed. The child then continues to grow in size, and different organs grow and form the mature organ system. After a certain age, the reproductive organs start to mature and are capable of forming the gametes.

Hence, all of these events occurred from the zygote to the child's maturity.

Mr. and Mrs. Green have a daughter, Georgia, who was born at Riverside Community Hospital. Mr. and Mrs. Blue have a daughter, Belle, who was born on the same date at the same hospital. Mrs. Green, having recently seen Belle, is convinced that Belle and Georgia had been assigned to the wrong parents at the hospital. Mrs. Green thinks that Belle is her biological daughter. ABO blood analysis was performed on all individuals involved:Mr. Green: Type AMrs. Green: Type A Georgia: Type AMr. Blue: Type ABMrs. Blue: Type ABelle: Type O
Is Mrs. Green correct? Is Belle her biological daughter? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, Mrs Green is correct that Belle is her biological daughter

Explanation:

According to this question, Mr. and Mrs. Green is said to have a daughter, Georgia while Mr. and Mrs. Blue is said to have a daughter, Belle. Both daughters were born the same day. Hence, a controversy occured as Mrs. Green thinks that Belle is her biological daughter.

Based on the blood analysis, the following were obtained:

Mr. Green: Type A

Mrs. Green: Type A

Georgia: Type A

Mr. Blue: Type AB

Mrs. Blue: Type A

Belle: Type O

The genotype of the following blood types is as follows:

Type A - iAiA or iAi

Type B - iBiB or iBi

Type O - ii

Type AB - iAiB

From the analysis of blood types of Mr and Mrs Green, which are both type A, they can possibly produce a child with type A.

However, from the analysis of Mr. and Mrs. Blue, it is impossible to have a child with blood type O. However it is possible for Mr and Mrs. Green if they are both heterozygous (iAi × iAi). The punnet square is attached. Hence, Mrs Green is correct about her claim since Mr. and Mrs. Blue cannot have a child with blood type A.

How does convection cause ocean currents?
A. During the process of convection, energy is transferred to the atmosphere forming winds. These winds power surface currents.
B. During the process of convection, the heating of surface water by the sun results in upwelling.
C. During the process of convection, energy in warm water is lost to its surroundings. The water cools, becomes denser, and sinks.
D. During the process of convection, more minerals and gases dissolve in warm water. This increases the density of the warm water and causes it to sink.

Answers

Answer:

C. During the process of convection, energy in warm water is lost to its surroundings. The water cools, becomes denser, and sinks.

Explanation:

Convection refers to the process of transference of heat from one place to another by the movement of gas/liquid particles. Convection occurs when a gas or liquid substance is heated, thereby it expands (increase its volume) by gaining kinetic energy and moving far apart. Energy in the atmosphere and oceans is transferred mainly by convection. In the atmosphere, convection produces wind belts. Moreover, an ocean current is the result of the continuous movement of seawater caused by different forces acting upon the water (i.e., wind, the Coriolis effect, waves, temperature). In the oceans, convection produces currents because the seawater heats up becoming less dense and moves above cooler seawater, emitting heat during the process and causing the continual circulation of water.

Answers

Answer:

1.) Lactase is an example of ENZYME.

2.)An INHIBITOR is a molecule that can bind to an enzyme and prevent the enzyme from working.

3.)Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering the ACTIVATION ENERGY,

4.) a molecule of SUBSTRATE binds to the enzyme and is broken down into one or more molecules of PRODUCT which are released.

5.) The specific location within an enzyme molecule where the substrate binds is called the ACTIVE SITE.

Explanation:

An enzyme is defined as the substances that aids in the breaking down of complex food substances, taken in by animals, into simple, soluble and diffusible substances before they can be absorbed into the body. In the enzymatic reactions, a molecule of SUBSTRATE binds to the ACTIVE SITE of an enzyme and is broken down into one or more molecules of PRODUCT which are released.

There are different types of enzymes which are named according to the type of good they digest, these include:

--> Lactase: breaks down Lactose

--> proteases: breaks down proteins

--> Amylases: breaks down carbohydrate

Enzymes have the following characteristics:

--> They are proteins

--> They are specific in action. For example Lactase can only act on lactose.

--> They can be inactivated by INHIBITORS.

--> They are sensitive to temperature

--> They speed up a reaction by lowering the ACTIVATION ENERGY

- DNA 5' UTR: ATTTTAGCC

- RNA 3' UTR: UAAAAAUAAAAU

Explanation:

Transcription is the process in which a DNA sequence (e.g., a gene) is used as template (transcribed) in order to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually a messenger RNA molecule, which is then used as template to produce a polypeptide sequence (protein) in the ribosomes. In RNA, Thymine (T) bases are always replaced by Uracil (U) bases. An mRNA strand is formed in the 5′ to 3′ direction. Each triplet of nucleotides is referred to as a codon and the resulting mRNA strand is translated starting from codon AUG (Methionine), while there are three different stop codons or 'or termination codons' in the genetic code that terminate translation: UAG, UAA, and UGA.
