dangina [55]

Answer:

Here, the stimulus which is discussed in the question is the Suckling stimulus which is also known as Suckling reflex.  

Suckling by a child stimulates the suckling reflex system. The stimulus (information) reaches to the Hypothalamus. Hypothalamus triggers the TRH (thyrotropin-releasing hormone) which further triggers the releases of the Prolactin (PRL) hormone by the Anterior Pituitary.

Finally, when Prolactin reaches the blood, it stimulates the Mammary glands which being stimulated, start to produce milk.

Explanation:

The main function of Prolactin is to produce milk. Prolactin production is mainly controlled by Hypothalamus. Prolactin hormone is produced in Pituitary, uterus, etc. The prolactin hormone production is also controlled by the estrogen.

  • Prolactin regulation is also controlled by Dopamine and Oestrogen. Both of them regulates the onset and stoppage of prolactin production by sending the information to the pituitary gland. Dopamine mainly blocks the production when the level of prolactin is too high in the blood. Oestrogen mainly increases the production when the level of prolactin in the blood is too low.  
  • Not only Prolactin boost up the milk production but it also helps in maintaining the female's body metabolism, immune system, regulating the menstrual cycle, and regulating body fluid levels. In males, it increases sperm production.

Digital coding shows that a simple code can transmit complex information. How do you think that idea might relate to genetic inf
meriva

Answer:

The genetic code only consists of 4 letters of A T C and G. That means it is a VERY simple language. Combinations of three of these letters (codons) are translated into functional information in the form of amino acids. Each three letters = one amino acid.

Although the code seems simple, the information that can be derived from it is highly complex, making an entire organisms.

Take for example a simple 4 letter sequence of letters. ACTG, AGTC, AATG, etc. There are 256 potential combinations, just in a sequence of 4. Imagine in humans where there are THREE BILLION letters! The possible combinations are essentially endless.
