Atropine is sometimes used to dilate the pupil for an eye examination. which receptor would atropine block?

Biology

grigory [225]1 year ago

Atropine would block the receptor called muscarinic acetylcholine receptors present in the eye.

Atropine is the Anticholinergic agent which is also known as parasympatholytics. The activity of neurotransmitters at the receptors leads to pupil constriction.

Atropine is used to block these receptors that allow the pupillary muscles to relax. This causes the dilation of the pupil.

Atropine is the mydriatics that is used for pupillary dilation to conduct a detailed examination of eye diseases.

without this medication, the pupil will only dilate in the darkness. However, doctors cannot examine the eye problems as there is darkness as they need light for checkups.

The transmission of genetic material from one generation to the next is necessary for the survival of a species. Which statement
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The correct answer would be B) The complementary base pair rules.

DNA serves as the genetic material in most of the living organisms and is transmitted from parents to their offspring.

It is like blue print of the cell which contains all the necessary information required for the functioning and regulation of cell in the form of nucleotide sequences.

Generally, DNA consists of two strands which are complementary in nature i.e. purine base pair with its specific pyrimidine (adenine always base pair with thymine and guanine always base pair with cytosine).

This property of DNA is of utmost importance in the process of DNA replication as daughter DNA strand is formed on the basis of complementary base pair of the template strand.

It ensures that correct DNA sequence is produced for transmission to the offspring or daughter cell.
