Give an example of a stimulus, and explain how your nervous system and muscular system work together to respond to it. Explain i
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Hot metal.

Explanation:

Hot metal is the stimulus that allows nervous system and muscular system work together. When the person touch the hot metal, the sensory cells present on the skin sends signals to the central nervous system through sensory neurons. The central nervous system made a decision and order to the muscles of the hand to remove hand from the hot metal or body. These orders are send to the muscles through motor neurons. In this way, both nervous system and muscular system work together.

What type of cells, sex cells or somatic cells ,are produced by this process
pogonyaev

Answer:

Human sex cells are produced by a two-part cell division process called meiosis.

Explanation:

Through a sequence of steps, the replicated genetic material in a parent cell is distributed among four daughter cells. Meiosis produces gametes with one-half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell

A neuron that carries information away from the central nervous system
Stels [109]

Answer:

Axon also called nerve fiber carries information away from the central nervous system

Explanation:

Neurons have their own structure whose main parts are the nucleus, cell body, and dendrites. There are many connections between neurons thanks to axons or small branches.

Axons help create a network whose function is to transmit messages from neuron to neuron. This process is called a synapse, which is the joining of axons to pulses with a velocity of 0.001 seconds.

A female rabbit heterozygous at two genes (named A and B) is test-crossed with a male rabbit. Their progeny include 442 A/a;B/b,
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The genes are linked and 10 mu apart.

Explanation:

A female AaBb rabbit is test crossed with a male rabbit (aabb). The male can only produce<em> ab</em> gametes (all the progeny will have ab on one of the homologous chromosomes).

If the genes assorted independently, the female would produce 4 types of gametes with the same frequency: 1/4 AB, 1/4 Ab, 1/4 aB and 1/4 ab.

However, the observed AB and ab gametes were much more frequent than Ab and aB, which means that the genes are linked and alleles on the same chromosome do not assort independently during meiosis.

Recombination is a rare event, so the most abundant gametes are the parentals. That is how we know that the mother had the AB/ab genotype. The recombinant gametes therefore are Ab and aB.

Distance (mu) = # Recombinants × 100/ Total progeny

Distance = (54 + 46) × 100/ 1000

Distance =  100 × 100/1000

Distance = 10 mu
