Answer:

The autonomic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system that directs the activity of glands, organs, and smooth muscles.

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a control mechanism that operates primarily unconsciously and controls body workings like respiratory rate, heart rate, pupil response, digestion, urination and sexual excitement. This method is the primary driving force for regulating the reply to fight or flight.

To regulate physiological functions, it controls involuntary responses. There are also two divisions to the ANS while these two splits have oppositional effects on their internal organs:

the sympathetic division and
the parasympathetic division.

How do the temperaments of cows and bulls compare?

alexdok [17]

The Answer Is D: Bulls Are More Sensitive To Noise And Color, While Cows Are Less Sensitive. In A Rodeo, The Bull Riders Make Noises And Fling Around Red Capes, Making The Bull Angry. The Ironic Thing Is, Bulls Are Colorblind, So The Cape Gets Them Mad Because of The Movement. With Cows, They Don't Really Care About Noise. If You Were To Drive A Really Noise Tractor Around In The Pasture With Them, Which Farmers Do, They Don't Tend To Care.

The diploid number of chromosomes in the mustard plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, is 10. Knowing this, answer the following question

lukranit [14]

Answer:

10 chromosomes/sister chromatids

Explanation:

Prophase is the first stage of cell division (mitosis). Prior to the cell entering the actual division stage, it undergoes a phase where it prepares its content and most importantly undergo the duplication of its genetic material (DNA). This DNA are found as chromosomes. It undergoes replication of its DNA in the S-phase of interphase stage.

Since Arabidopsis thaliana has 10 chromosomes, and each chromosome holds one DNA molecule, 10 molecules of DNA will be present in the mustard plant's genome. These 10 molecules of DNA will be replicated on another copy of chromosome which is identical to the template. This chromosomes are called SISTER chromatids i.e. replicated chromosome. Each sister chromatids are held together at the centromere and are considered one individual chromosome until they separate during anaphase stage.

Hence, at the Prophase stage, before separation, each sister chromatid (replicated chromosome) is considered as one chromosome. Thus, in the mustard plant with 10 chromosomes, it will possess 10 sister chromatids or chromosomes at the Prophase stage.

N.B: When sister chromatids separate during anaphase stage, they will be regarded as individual chromosomes.
