Chapter 35, Problem 11TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason that the polio vaccine is given to the children even though most neurons of the body are irreplaceable.
Introduction:
Polio virus is the member of the picornaviridae. It is an RNA virus that causes infection that result in the disease polio. Polio is a disease in which the polio virus damages the nerves that leads to the paralysis of the limbs. It is spread through the fecal–oral route.

Mix epithelial cells with heat-killed virus, wait 24 hrs, wash away any virus particles outside the epithelial cells, then add epithelial cells to dendritic cells. Mix epithelial cells with viral peptides, wait 24 hrs, wash away any viral peptides not bound to the epithelial cells, then add epithelial cells to dendritic cells.

- Because of similarities between hypoxia associated with high altitude and COVID-19, some studies have suggested that people living at high altitude may be accustom to low blood oxygen levels and therefore less adversely effected by coronavirus infection. Based on your knowledge of acclimation/adaptations to high-altitude, DISCUSS whether you think high altitude hypoxia might protected against coronavirus infection. Justify your answer. Your words may not be more than 100 words.arrow_forwardHello, can someone please help me answer 1 and 2. Thank you!arrow_forwardTo put an end to the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccines were developed against the virus and people eligible to receive these are encouraged to get vaccinated. How do these vaccines work? * The vaccine will not cause the disease, but will help develop the body’s first line of defense. The vaccine mimics the virus that causes the disease and triggers the creation of antibodies. No answer The presence of the virus in the vaccine will improve the innate immune response of the body. The vaccine causes a mild infection that will trigger the production of antibodies against the virus.arrow_forward

These viral particles are then retained in the lymph node for many hours, where they can be visualized on cells that are interacting with B cells. The cells retaining the viral particles in the lymph node are not tissue-resident dendritic cells that have migrated to the lymph node with the virus, as this process takes much longer than 5 minutes. In which region of the lymph node would you expect to find the trapped viral particles and on which cells?arrow_forwardPlease help me with this question within an hour?arrow_forward
