Biology Questions

Angioplasty, also known as balloon angioplasty or PTA, is a minimally invasive, endovascular procedure to widen narrowed or obstructed arteries or veins, typically to treat arterial atherosclerosis.

Hence, the given statement that Angioplasty is the most typical treatment for arteriosclerosis is FALSE.

Enzymes play an essential role in each living cell of our body. Enzymes are globular proteins that control biological reactions. These are of two types.

1. Intracellular enzymes

2. Extracellular enzymes

Intracellular enzymes are found inside the cell.

Extracellular enzymes act outside the cell.

Enzymes are produced by exocrine glands.

Digestive enzymes of diverse specificities are secreted by the salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, and the small intestine.

Absence of cell division is the process that never comes in interphase.

FALSE. Basophils number will not be increased when parasitic invasion occurs.

Basophils are a type of white blood cell. Although they're produced in the bone marrow, they're found in many tissues throughout your body. They're part of your immune system and play a role in its proper function.

Basophils appear in many specific kinds of inflammatory reactions, particularly those that cause allergic symptoms. If your basophil level is low, it may be due to a severe allergic reaction.

Basophils contain anticoagulant heparin, which prevents blood from clotting too quickly. They also contain the vasodilator histamine, which promotes blood flow to tissues.

In all plants and animal cells chromosomes are located in the Nucleus of the cells.

The Chromosomes are thread like structures present in the nucleus of the cells which are made up of proteins and a single molecule of DNA.

Their function is to carry the characteristic features of parent cells to daughter cells.
