- What do the mucosa of the respiratory, gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract have in common? O They produce endotoxins. O They are smooth. They don't have host defenses. O They are portals of entry.arrow_forwardJonathan Miller, aged 6 years, was brought to emergency room by his parents; he was presenting with fever, severe headache, a petechial rash, stiff neck and vomiting. Jonathan had a history of recurrent sinusitis and otitis media, all caused by pyogenic bacteria and treated successfully with antibiotics. Suspecting bacterial meningitis, the attending physician began an immediate course of intravenous antibiotics and requested a lumbar puncture. Neisseria meningitidis was grown from the cerebrospinal fluid. The physician was concerned about the recurrence of infections caused by pyogenic bacteria, and he suspected an immunodeficiency. He ordered blood tests and found the serum complement profiles to have low C3, factor B, and factor H, and undetectable factor I. Which of the following explains why a factor I deficiency is associated with infections caused by pyogenic bacteria? a. Elevated levels of C3 convertase C3bBb interfere with the activation of the classical pathway of…arrow_forwardA 2-year-old African American boy is brought to his pediatrician because of acute fever, apparent bone pain, and painful swelling of his hands and feet.

These nodules are an example of the intimate and specialized partnerships that have been established over time between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Coevolution maintains these types of relationships because both participants benefit. Plants receive biologically useful forms of nitrogen needed for growth, and the bacteria reside in an oxygen-free environment required by enzymes involved in the nitrogen-fixing process. Humans also maintain intimate associations with beneficial bacteria and even archaea. In fact, the prokaryotic cells in and on human bodies outnumber the eukaryotic human cells by tenfold, according to some estimates. These microbial inhabitants help humans digest food, provide essential vitamins absorbed by the intestines, and even impact the immune system. The microbes that coevolve with plants arrive by infection of root tissue. The microbiota that coevolve with humans…arrow_forward
