When blood pressure receptors sense a loss of blood pressure, they decrease their firing rate to the medulla.

Baroreceptors or blood pressure receptors are the receptors present in the carotid sinus i.e. the bifurcation of the external and internal carotids and in the aortic arches.

They are important to maintain the blood pressure in the body. whenever there is a change in the blood pressure they send information to the brain so that the pressure can be maintained.

They are able to sense the pressure change for only short period pressure change. When the pressure change occurs over a long period of time they get adjusted to it.

Neurons transmit signals to the central nervous system. The brain processes this information to initiate a response. Two neurons
Free_Kalibri [48]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

Neurons transmit signals to the central nervous system. The brain processes this information to initiate a response. Two neurons communicate with each other through the ( axon , dendrite, synapse) . The ( cerebrospinal cord, glial cell, neurotransmitter) is released at the site to initiate action potential and carry the signal through the body.

Answer:

synapse

neurotransmitter

Explanation:

Neurons are the basic units for the transmission of signals to the central nervous system. The two neurons are connected through the syanpse. Synapse is the space or junction between two nerve cells, or neurons.

The neuron receives signals through dendrites and two neurons  communicate with each other through a chemical called neurotransmitter, which is released at the end of a nerve fibre and carry the signal through the body.

Hence, the correct answers are synapse and neurotransmitter.

Identify the type of mutation that occurred and explain in what way it affected the protien
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The type of mutation that occurs when in the DNA strand there is a change from guanine to cytosine is a nonsense mutation, since the triplet that should encode the amino acid encodes a stop codon and the protein cannot be completely synthesized.

Explanation:

The nonsense mutation consists of a change in one of the bases of the stranded DNA, which is transcribed into an altered mRNA, producing a stop codon, instead of an amino acid.

In the table it is observed that the CCA codon is a stop codon that cuts off the protein synthesis prematurely, leaving it incomplete and probably non-functional.

Sometimes this type of mutation can alter the sequence of amino acids but the protein may be complete enough to partially fulfill its function.

An allosteric protein demonstrates a decrease in its Kg for molecule Y as the concentration of molecule X increases. Based on th
djyliett [7]

Answer:

X is negative heterotropic modulator

Explanation:

In allosteric regulations, modulators are molecules that causes a change in the conformation of an enzyme, hence, resulting a change in enzyme activity. It can lead to a decrease or an increase of the enzyme.  When a molecule decreases the enzyme activity it called a negative modulator, when it increases or activates the enzyme activity, it is called a positive modulator.

A positive or negative modulator can either be homotrophic (substrate acts as modulator) or heterotropic (another ligand acts as modulator).

In the example above, X is negative heterotropic modulator, because the modulator is different from the substrate and it also decreases the enzyme activity.
