The answer is macrophages. They either actively invade these leukocytes or are phagocytosed, divide in the cells and cause lysis. The promastigotes that invade these leucocytes are transformed into amastigotes in the macrophages. These amastigotes continue attacking other healthy macrophages while others migrate to the mid gut.
Answer:
Endocytosis is a form of active transport hence require enegry powered by ATP. The amoeba needs to change shape and engulf and envaginate the particle and then use vessicle transportation to get the materials into the cell. This requires that the cytoskeleton - composed of tubules and filaments - contracts and relax accordingly. This requires energy by ATPs just like the myosin and actin of muscle.
Phagocytosis, another form of endocytosis, is used by some cells such as immune cells to engulf foreign material and then destroy them by use of lysozymes. This is how phagocytes protect the body from invaders.
Answer:
a fuel for cellular respiration and a starting material for making other organic molecules.
Explanation:
Plants have the ability to produce sugars by the process of photosynthesis. Plants can convert the inorganic CO2 from the air into the organic nutrients such as sugars. Plants store sugars so that they can serve as a source of ATP for the cells as and when required. The sugars enter the process of cellular respiration and are oxidized into CO2 and H2O. In addition, the energy of chemical bonds of the sugars is used to form ATP molecules.
Plants also use sugars to synthesize other organic molecules. For example, several intermediates of Kreb's cycle can serve as precursors for the synthesis of amino acids. Amino acids are joined together to form different proteins.
A developing embryo is typically more susceptible to damage/injury during the early stages of pregnancy.
Answer:
Heterotrophs obtain chemical energy for their survival by eating plants and animals.
Explanation:
- The chemical energy that organism need comes from food. They break this food down to obtain energy.
- Depending on their source of nutrients , they are classified into: Autotrophs and Heterotrophs.
- Autotrophs use sunlight and photosynthesize to produce their own food. They are often known as producers.
- Heterotrophs are beings that can't prepare their own food and consume other organisms to obtain energy.They are also called consumers.
- Examples include: Animals, fungi,etc.
