Accepts electrons from cytochrome c, ultimately transferring them to oxygen, forming H2O. in the process, 2 protons are pumped across the membrane. Complex IV is a terminal oxidoreductase, meaning that it transferes the elctrons to the terminal electron acceptor, which, in this case, is O2.
White blood cells called lymphocytes originate in the bone marrow but migrate to parts of the lymphatic system such as the lymph nodes, spleen, and thymus. There are two main types of lymphatic cells, T cells and B cells.
The macrophage is just one cell type that may present antigens in the MHCII complex; other cells, including B cells and dendritic cells, may also act as antigen-presenting cells (APC). Only a few helper T cells in the immune system will recognize the specific antigen presented by the APC.One helper T cell must become thousands of T cells to mount the immune response against the foreign invader. The animation illustrates the passage of signals through the cell that results in T-cell proliferation.he macrophage is just one cell type that may present antigens in the MHCII complex; other cells, including B cells and dendritic cells, may also act as antigen-presenting cells (APC).
