Option D: The cells in the nervous system that handle information processing are called neurons.

Nerve cells, often called neurons, are the building blocks of the nervous system. They interact with the information and transfer this information along various distances through electrical impulses. The nervous system is generally made up of two types of cells: nerve cells and glial cells. Glial cells are the supporting system of neurons. The nervous system is broadly divided into two categories:

The central nervous system (CNS) contains the brain and spinal cord

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) contains neurons and their parts such as sensory neurons and motor neurons.

Analysis of the information brought in by sensory neurons is done in CNS while PNS works as transportation for these signals from one neuron to another. Motor neurons carry the signals out of the CNS after analysis.

Information processing in the nervous system is handled by neurons or their parts like interneurons that connect one neuron to another in the CNS.  These signals are then transferred by motor neurons to respond to stimuli.

To know more about the nervous system, refer to the following link:

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)Organ transplantation requires that the donor organism and recipient be genetically close so that the graft or transplant will not be attacked by the immune system of the recipient leading to rejection and damage. Squeaky is likely to be made up of a different genetic configuration compared to laboratory inbred FG426 mouse

b) ips (induced pluripotent stem cell) on the other hand can benefit squeaky since the cells are somatic cells such as B cells, Keratinocytes, neuronal progenitors cells, kidney and muscles gotten from the donor that are reprogrammed by reactivating silent genes through fusing of another different cell such as ES (embryonic stem cell) and introduction of some transcriptional factors such oct4, sox2,kf4, and k-myc leading to transcriptional activity and DNA methylation.  This induced pluripotent stem cells can be grown into organ that can be transplanted to the recipient who was initially the donor of the reprogrammed somatic cells. Because it is from the host, the transplanted organ is not likely to trigger immune response compare to those grown from ES from other bred.
