Where do the cells project through the ethmoid bone and synapse with the olfactory bulbs?

1 answer:

8 0

The afferent nerve fibres of the olfactory receptor neurons transmit nerve signal about odours to the CNS. From the olfactory mucosa (inside the nasal cavity), the nerve travels up through the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone where the fascicles enter the olfactory bulb. The olfactory bulb is a structure which contains specialised neurones, called mitral cells and the nerve fibres synapse with those mitral cells, forming collections known as synaptic glomeruli. From the glomeruli, second order nerves then pass into the olfactory tract which runs to the CNS (primary olfactory cortex).

Three-carbon molecules of PGA are converted to G3P small sugar molecules by _____, which come from the light reaction. ADP and N

True [87]

Answer:

ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

The second stage of the Calvin cycle is the reduction in which 3-Phosphoglycerate is reduced into Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate by a series of reactions. These reactions consume ATP as an energy source and NADPH as an electron donor. ATP and NADPH for produced during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis. Transfer of electron through ETC generates proton concentration gradient across the thylakoid membrane which in turn drives ATP synthesis. Electrons released from water splitting finally reach NADP reductase enzyme that reduces NADH into NADPH.
