Some neuroglial cells produce the components of the electrical insulator called Myelin.

<h3>What functions do neuroglial cells perform?</h3>

A broad class of cells known as neuroglia assist neurons during their growth and metabolism. They are in charge of preserving immune protection and homeostatic regulation in the neurological system.

Glia are non-neuronal cells of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system that do not generate electrical impulses. They are also known as glial cells (gliocytes) or neuroglia.

Glial cells are non-excitable brain tissue cells that cushion, support, and insulate neurons. Neurons. excitable nerve cells are those that can transfer electrical signals and react.

Support cells, or neuroglial cells, work with neurons to help them survive and thrive in their ideal environments.

Contrast the genetic content and the origin of sister versus nonsister chromatids during their earliest appearance in prophase I

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Sister chromatids are identical forms of chromatids of a chromosomes. They are mostly formed by semi-conservative replication of DNA molecule of a single chromosome.Thus they are like 'photocopies' of original parent chromosomes; joined together at the Centromere.

They are exactly similar in all ramification; with the same gene and allele compositions..

However; slight differences arise between the two identical sisters due to mutation from errors at replication;and also in the length of telomere repeats.

Non-sister chromatids are dissimilar forms of chromatids of a chromosomes formed when each half of a chromosome at fertilisation from separate haploid sex-cells, of each parent. fused.They contain different genetic composition;because they are not on the same homologous chromosomes.Therefore crossing -over ensure variation.

However, they are genetically similar in composition; if they are contained in homologous chromosomes. This is because Synapsis of bivalent of these chromosomes allow genetic material to be shared by chromosomal crossing-over between the non-sister chromatids on the chromosomes ; therefore identical genetic characteristics are shared .

What is the substrate of the enzyme amylase

Kitty [74]

Answer: Substrate of Amylase enzyme is starch.

Explanation: Amylase enzyme is used to speed the chemical reaction of hydrolysing starch, a polymer of glucose, to maltose. Starch is a polysaccharide so basically the amylase enzyme breaks down this polysaccharide (many sugars) with the aid of water to disaccharide (two sugars).

The table below identifies three classes of genes that affect the cell cycle.

Doss [256]

The correct option is this: PROTO ONCOGENES BECOMES ONCOGENES.
Proto oncogenes genes are those genes that regulate the process of normal cell division in the living system. These cells starts cell division when necessary and terminate the cell division when the necessary cells have been formed. When these genes lose the power to regulate cell division, the cells continue to divide indefinitely without stopping and this leads to a medical condition called cancer. At this stage, the proto oncogenes have been turned into oncogenes, which are genes that caused uncontrolled cell cycle divisions.
