Is the relation a function?
Not every relation is a function. But every function is a relation. Function is just a part of relation.
The function f(x) x3 is called the function?
The cubic function.
If an inverse function undoes the work of the original function what does the original function's becomes the inverse function's domain?
Range
What are the ways in describing a function?
A formula or graph are two ways to describe a math function. How a math function is described depends on the domain of the function or the complexity of the function.
How does the graph of the Mandelbrot set function relate to composite functions?
The Mandelbrot graph is generated iteratively and so is a function of a function of a function ... and in that sense it is a composite function.
How does phagolysosome differ from a phagosome?
Phagosome is th eingested particle, while phagolysosome is a fusion of phagosome with lysosome
Who coined the term phagosome?
lewis
What are facts about phagocytosis?
Lysosomes are found in the phagosome which are involved in digesting the bacteria once engulfed. The phagosome has c3b receptors which bind to the antibodies on the bacteria.
What are phagosomes?
A phagosome is the engulfed particle by the white blood cell during phagocytosis
What are Membrane sacs that develop as a result of phagocytosis?
A phagosome (also known as a food vacuole).
Name The structure found in a phagosome which is used to digest material?
lysosomes connect to the encased solid and break it down
What has the author David Joel Hackam written?
David Joel Hackam has written: 'Mechanisms of phagosome formation, maturation and acidification'
What has the author Warren Lester Lee written?
Warren Lester Lee has written: 'Membrane remodelling and signal transduction during phagosome formation and maturation'
What is Phagocytosis.?
Phagocytosis is the cellular process of engulfing solid particles by the cell membrane to form an internal phagosome, or "food vacuole." The phagosome is usually delivered to the lysosome, an organelle involved in the breakdown of cellular components, which fuses with the phagosome. ------------------------------------------- The process where a Phagocyte 'disposes' of a pathogen is called phagocytosis, when a bacteria attaches to a phagocyte, using ligands, The phagocyte forms Pseudopods (cytoplasmic arms) that envelope the pathogen, the Psuedopodia then fuse, creating a membrane, enclosing the pathogen forming a phagosome, this moves deeper within the cell to then form with a lysosome forming a phagolysosome (not really imaginitive naming i know, but scientists aren't known for their imaginative naming ). the lysosome contains enzymes (you guessed it, lysozyme) the lysozyme destroys the bacterial cell walls allowing hydrolytic enzymes to digest the rest of the pathogen.Sources : Collins AS Biology for AQA textbookPhagocytosis is a process by which certain living cells called phagocytes ingest other cells or particles
What happens when cells cease to function adequately or at all?
When a cell dies due to its age it often undergoes self-death, called apoptosis. Apoptosis is a form of controlled cell death where the cell breaks off into small pieces called apoptotic bodies. These bodies are then ingested by macrophages(or microglia in the brain, sometimes referred to as the brain macrophage). Once phagocytized into a phagosome within the macrophage, a lysosome will join the phagosome forming a phagolysosome. Within the phagolysosome the pH drops to around 3 and the enzymes become activated and digest the apoptotic body and recycle its nutrients. Any non-digestable material is stored in the macrophage and is often called lipofuschin.
Where would you expect to find the kupffer cells of the liver and what is their function?
Function of Kupffer cellsLiver contains macrophages called Kupffer cells. These cells engulf and breakdown toxic matter such as microorganisms, dead cells and chemicals. Kupffer cells ingest microorganism by phagocytosis. The engulfed microorganism is called phagosome. Lysosmes in the cytoplasm of kupffer cell, fuse with the phagosome and release digestive enzymes. These enzymes breakdown and kill the microorganism.But how does kupffer cell identify toxic matter?There are receptors for the toxic matter on the surface of kupffer cells. The harmful particle and these receptors of kupffer cell can fit together like pieces of a puzzle. The harmful particle is then engulfed by kupffer cell.
Lysosomes can be expected to be present in large numbers in cells which?
Lysosomes are expected in large numbers of cells that carry out phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is when a cell engulfs a particle and forms a phagosome.
