Sphinxa [80]2 years ago

The major difference between bacterial chromosomes and eukaryotic chromosomes is that bacteria have a single circular chromosome whereas eukaryotes have several linear chromosomes.

Eukaryotic chromosomes are present within the nucleus while prokaryotic chromosomes are found in the nucleoid (a region of the cytoplasm). The nucleoid does not have a membrane.

In eukaryotic chromosomes, DNA is wrapped around histone proteins, which is further compacted by supercoiling and folding. However, in prokaryotic chromosomes, DNA is supercoiled and held together by nucleoid-associated proteins.

Prokaryotic chromosome is very simple in comparison to the eukaryotic one. Prokaryotic chromosome lack telomeres and centromeres sequences which is found in the eukaryotic chromosomes.

Describe what messages are sent by the nervous system when you go outside wearing a sweater on a very hot day.​
mr_godi [17]

Answer and Explanation:

In homeostatic control processes any deviation from the norm sets into motion the appropriate corrective mechanisms which restore the norm. This rectification occurs through negative feedback. When you go outside wearing a sweater on a hot day, the body sends messages to the CNS and the following occurs:

  • The superficial blood vessels vasodilate so that more blood flows near the surface. This encourages heat loss.
  • Sweating and panting. Sweat secreted by the sweat glands evaporate from the surface of the body as it absorbs latent heat.
  • The metabolic rate falls so that the body generates less heat. You also become less active
  • Behavioural response by seeking cooler areas, cold drinks or removal of the sweater.
