The long bundle of neurons that carries messages to and from the body to the brain and is responsible for very fast, lifesaving reflexes is called the<u> spinal cord. </u>

<h3>What is the espinal cord?</h3>

There are two organs involved in the central nervous system that function as control centers,

  • The brain,
  • The spinal cord.

The spinal cord is a nerve tube placed in a hollow space left between vertebras along the vertebral column. The vertebrae's body protects the spinal cord.

It is made of nerves that take orders from the brain to the rest of the body and send messages from the body to the brain.  

Reflexes acts are produced in the medulla, and the brain is not involved.

The nervous cells of the medulla have fibers that extend from the medulla to the body and are connected to sensory receptors.

When receptors receive stimuli, they send information to the nerve fibers, which take it to the brain. From the brain, they send a response.

The answer is spinal cord.

A mutation occurs in an original DNA template that changes the DNA, changes the RNA, but does not change the protein sequence. W
jonny [76]

Answer:

<h2>The changes that do not affect the function of a protein are called silent mutations.</h2>

Explanation:

As given here as a mutation occurs in an original DNA template that changes the DNA, by transcription this mutation passes into RNA and changes the RNA, but it does not change the protein sequence, it means that this mutation could be silent mutation.

Silent mutation is the mutation which cause the change of a base in that, after the mutation the codon codes for the same amino acid, or the amino acid which do no cause any change in the protein, hence these changes do not affect the function of a protein.
