39.2 Plant hormones 131095 SunHa Lee cytokinins - 2) apical dominance Apical dominance: ability of the apical bud to suppress the development of axillary buds Direct inhibition hypothesis: auxin & cytokinins act antagonistically in regulating axillary bud growth - auxin: sent from apical bud, directly inhibits axillary growth - cytokinins: sent from roots, signals axillary growth Ratio of auxin and cytokinins is important 2) apical dominance Apical bud removed: no inhibition of axillary buds, more lateral branches Auxin added: lateral bud growth repressed Overload of cytokinins: more lateral branches, bushier 3) anti-aging effects Slow aging - inhibit protein breakdown - stimulate RNA and protein synthesis - mobilize nutrients from nearby tissues

Chapter 43 TheImmuneSystem 43-3,4 Active/Passive Immunization Active immunity : defenses that arise when a pathogen infects the body and prompts a primary or secondary immune response Passive immunity : antibodies guard against pathogens that have never infected them (lasts as long as antibodies last) ? Example: mother?s IgG & IgA antibodies to baby Artificial active immunity: immunization (vaccination) Antigens used to make vaccines Artificial passive immunity: inject antibodies from an animal already immune into another animal ? Short-term but immediate Polyclonal/Monoclonal Antibodies : Polyclonal or monoclonal Polyclonal : products of many different clones of plasma cells Monoclonal : made from a single clone of B cells grown in culture
