Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: <em>D. Causes an accumulation of lipids in brain cells</em>

Explanation:

Tay-Sachs disease is caused by a genetic mutation in the <em>HEXA</em> gene. It is an autosomal recessive disease that causes the mutation on an enzyme, which metabolizes <em>GM2 Ganglioside</em> in nerve cells, this leads to a build-up of the molecule in brain cells. At the moment there is no cure for the disease, only support treatment is available.

KengaRu [80]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The wavelength of <u>light</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The electromagnetic spectrum shows the parts of light orchestrated by their wavelengths. The range for the most part comprises of both visible as well as invisible light. Together, they are called electromagnetic radiation. They are electromagnetic in light of the fact that they comprise of both an electric field and an magnetic field, and these fields travel in wave and travel at the speed of light: 3.00 × \bold{10^8} m/s.  

When the light gets scattered it gives out color in the form of VIBGYOR which is elaborately called as Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and red. These colors are arranged in the spectrum based upon the wavelength.

Some homeostatic imbalances cause a variable that is normally controlled by negative feedback to be abnormally controlled by pos
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Some deviations from normal homeostasis activate the positive feedback loops to control the conditions which are otherwise regulated by negative feedback mechanisms.

For example, the blood levels of respiratory gases and H+ ions are regulated by a negative feedback system via chemoreceptors. The increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas and lowered pH or lowered partial pressure of oxygen in the blood are sense by central and peripheral chemoreceptors which in turn activate the neurons of the dorsal respiratory group (DRG).

The activated DRG triggers an increased in the rate and depth of the breathing to facilitate the inhalation of more oxygen and exhalation of CO2 to restore the normal levels.  

However, hypocapnia inactivates the chemoreceptors and does not allow negative feedback to restore the normal CO2 levels in the blood.  

Under such conditions, the positive feedback loop stimulates the DRG neurons more strongly in response to the increased partial pressure of CO2 above the normal levels than when the partial pressure of oxygen falls below the normal level. These dangerously lowered oxygen levels may also cause fainting.
