If you want to see something in fine detail, you should focus the light on which part of your retina?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

If you want to see something in fine detail, you should focus the light the cornea. The lens works together with the cornea to focus light correctly on retina.

When light hit on retina special cells called photo receptors turn the light into electrical signals. The lens are the clear part of eyes behind the iris that help to focus light and image on retina to see something clearly.Lens is the important part of eye when it comes to focusing light so that we can see perfect clear image.

The retina is the most sensitive part which can effect by more light because retina convert incoming light into electrical impulse.

What happens to RNA polymerase II after it has completed transcription of a gene? a. It begins transcribing the next gene on the
Over [174]

The correct answer is: b. It is free to bind to another promoter and begin transcription

Transcription is the first step of gene expression in which DNA molecule is copied (transcribed) into RNA (mRNA) by RNA polymerase. The process of transcription is divided into three phases:

1. Initiation

• RNA polymerase with transcriptional factors bind to gene promoter  

• RNA polymerase unwinds DNA double helix (transcription bubble is formed)

2. Elongation

• RNA polymerases adds nucleotides complementary to DNA  

3. Termination

• RNA polymerase gets to stop codon (transcribes a sequence of DNA known as a terminator)

• Formed complementary RNA strand is released from DNA-RNA complex.

RNA polymerase is also released and can transcribe some other gene by binding to its promotor. RNA polymerase will transcribe just the genes whose products are needed at a particular moment.

Briefly describe Wernicke and Broca aphasia. What is a main difference of these two classic types of aphasia and can be useful i
mixer [17]

Answer:

Broca's area refers to a motor speech region, which assists in movements needed at the time of the production of speech. When an injury takes place in the frontal parts of the left hemisphere, it can give rise to various kinds of language issues. This section of the brain plays an essential role in putting words together to produce complete sentences. The injury to the left hemisphere is known as Broca's aphasia, also known as expressive aphasia.  

Wernicke's aphasia also called receptive aphasia, posterior aphasia, or sensory aphasia is a kind of aphasia in which individual encounters with difficulty in understanding spoken and written language. Thus, the two kinds of aphasia are expressive aphasia in which one faces difficulty in conveying thoughts via writing and speech. The other is receptive aphasia, in which one finds difficulty in understanding the written or spoken language.  

By analyzing the symptoms that whether the patient exhibits difficulty in understanding speech and using accurate words to express thoughts or the movements that are needed to generate speech, one can find the site of destruction.
