The time it takes in milliseconds for the brain to transmit a signal to your skeletal muscles can be determined given the speed and distance. It was given that the signal travels at approximately 25 m/s while the distance between the brain and one' hand can be set to approximately 1 m. To obtain the time, we divide the distance by the speed and convert it to milliseconds.

The equation would be: (1 m/ 25 m/s)*(1000 ms/1 s) = 40 ms.

Thus, it will take 40 ms for the brain's signal to travel before it can command your skeletal muscles to react accordingly.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The statement that is not true for antibody staining is it can provide information about gene expression.

Explanation:

Antibody staining is important aspect of applied immunology. Antibody staining is done to determine a specific protein in a given sample.Antibody staining is done by using fluorescent dyes and also by using specific enzyme such as horse reddish peroxidase,alkaline phosphatase.

         Antibody staining can be visualized with either fluorescent or radioactive labels. Antibody staining can be performed by western blotting method.Multiple antibodies can be used to stain different proteins.Antibody staining requires the hybridization of the complementary base sequence of the antibody and also the target protein to which it binds.
