example modifier and complement
What does complement mean in probability?

What are complement deficiencies?
Complement deficiencies are a group of disorders in which there is a reduced level of specific proteins, complement, involved in proper immune functioning.
Which of the following is an effect of complement activation?
Opsonization
What is the function of the complement cascade called opsonization?
processing
What is it called when some of the chemicals released during complement fixation enhance phagocytosis?
Opsonization Chemotaxis
Ag - Ab binding may result in?
1. Agglutination (clumping) 2.Opsonization ( aids phagocytosis) 3. Complement Fixation
What does complement proteins do?
Complement is part of the innate immune system (one you are born with). It consists of small protein molecules that circulate in the blood stream. Complement has three pathways, The classic pathway; The alternative pathway; and the lectin pathway. In the classical pathway, complement is activated by triggers such as the binding of an antigen to an antibody. In the alternative pathway, Complement is part of the natural immune system and complement assist in the opsonization, or the marking of an antigen to be destroyed by a phagocyte. This like the antigen has been marked with black marker so that a killer cell (phagocyte-cell eater) can find it to eat it. Finally the lectin pathway, which is similar to the classical pathway in terms of structure but this pathway starts with lectin or ficolin binding to sugars. After activation complement can trigger any number of events such as opsonization, chemotaxis, inflammation, and lysis (breaking) of cells.
How is opsonization associated with inflammation?
In the immune system, opsonization occurs and causes swelling, redness, production at the site of the infection and pain and discomfort.
What is the difference between opsonization and neutralization?
Opsonization involves an antibody binding to a pathogen itself while neutralizing invovles an antibody binding to a toxin, AKA something the pathogen produces.
What is the fucton of antibodies?
Lots of function... 1. Neutralize toxins and prevent them spreading in the circulation 2. Opsonization for phagocytosis by cells with FcR 3. Classical complement pathway: C1q binds Fc portion of antibodies and intiates a cascade of events that result to cell death 4. Autoimmune disorders (IgE
What is a possessive complement?
The possessive form of the noun complement is complement's.
What are actions of antibiotics?

What is a homophone for complement?
