Answer:

Santi is walking barefoot through his yard when he steps on a sharp rock. The skin on the bottom of his foot sends this information through a(n) sensory neuron to his CNS. A(n) interneuron picks up this information and carries it to motor neurons of the CNS, which sends a signal to the muscles in his foot causing his foot to pull away from the rock.

Explanation:

The scenarios discussed in the question is known as a reflex action. In this action, specific receptors detect specific stimuli. For example, pain in the barefoot due to steeping on a sharp rock was the stimuli. This stimulus was detected by the sensory neurons. The sensory neurons turned this information into a chemical signal which was transported by the interneurons to the motor neurons of the CNS. The CNS detected the signal and gave information for a response as a result of which Santi pulled back his feet.

Hox genes are sometimes called "master switches". They have acquired this nickname because a single Hox gene will turn on (or of

Gwar [14]

Answer: B. False

Explanation:

“Hox” genes are a highly conserved group of genes, all of whose products are transcription factors bearing a specific domain (called a ”homeodomain”). The transcriptional activity of a large amount of genes relevant to embryonic development is controlled by regulatory sites which are able to bind to this domain. Changes in the transcriptional activity of even a single Hox gene may thus have dramatic downstream effects on the phenotype, as this will result in several further genes having their transcription either enhanced or suppressed.
