The nervous system reacts faster to external/ internal stimuli than the endocrine system.

<h3>How does the nervous system respond?</h3>
  • Nervous system consists of a group of specialized cells called receptors which respond to external stimuli.
  • Receptors detect a change in the external/ internal environment (stimulus).
  • This leads to an electrical impulse in the nervous system in response to stimuli.
  • These impulses generated are then transmitted via neurons to the Central Nervous System (CNS) where the response is generated.
  • After a response is selected, the signal is transmitted via neurons to effectors.
  • Effectors are organs which generate a response to a stimulus.
  • A response refers to the change in an organism resulting from the detection of a stimulus.
  • The endocrine system responds to stimulus by production of hormones which are usually formed far away from the site where stimulus is given so the response takes time.

xeze [42]

Answer:

The continuity of life from one cell to another has its foundation in the reproduction of cells by way of the cell cycle. The cell cycle is an orderly sequence of events in the life of a cell from the division of a single parent cell to produce two new daughter cells, to the subsequent division of those daughter cells. The mechanisms involved in the cell cycle are highly conserved across eukaryotes. Organisms as diverse as protists, plants, and animals employ similar steps.

Genomic DNA

Before discussing the steps a cell undertakes to replicate, a deeper understanding of the structure and function of a cell’s genetic information is necessary. A cell’s complete complement of DNA is called its genome. In prokaryotes, the genome is composed of a single, double-stranded DNA molecule in the form of a loop or circle. The region in the cell containing this genetic material is called a nucleoid. Some prokaryotes also have smaller loops of DNA called plasmids that are not essential for normal growth.

In eukaryotes, the genome comprises several double-stranded, linear DNA molecules (Figure 6.2) bound with proteins to form complexes called chromosomes. Each species of eukaryote has a characteristic number of chromosomes in the nuclei of its cells. Human body cells (somatic cells) have 46 chromosomes. A somatic cell contains two matched sets of chromosomes, a configuration known as diploid. The letter n is used to represent a single set of chromosomes; therefore a diploid organism is designated 2n. Human cells that contain one set of 23 chromosomes are called gametes, or sex cells; these eggs and sperm are designated n, or haploid.

Explain what factors would cause a cell to stop at each of the 3 cell cycle checkpoints
Rudiy27

Answer and Explanation:

Cyclins and cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs, cell proteins) also function to control the cell cycle. A group of cyclins: the G1 cyclins, are synthesized during G1 phase and function to activate CDPKs which initiate DNA synthesis at the G1/S checkpoint. The cell fails to progress to S phase if there is no sufficient synthesis of G1 cyclins. After a cell passes through this point, the G1 cyclins are degraded, allowing for another group of cyclins: the M cyclins (mitotic cyclins) to be synthesized. M cyclins activate a second group of CDPKs which allow the cell to pass the G2/M control point and into mitosis.

In the G1/s check point, entrance into the S phase is blocked if the genome is damaged. In the G2/M check point, entrance into the M phase is halted if the DNA replication is incomplete. In the M phase, anaphase blocked if chromatids are not properly assembled.
