<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

A. Hypothalamus

The <em><u>hypothalamus</u></em> is the part of the brain thought to be responsible for a person's hunger drive.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u><em>Hypothalamus is the bridge between the nervous system and the endocrine system, which regulates hormones in the body, the hypothalamus also controls body temperature and is responsible for sensations of hunger and thirst.</em></u>
  • Hypothalamus is the main regulatory organ for appetite. Hypothalamus is a section of the brain which is responsible for hormone production. The hormones produced by this ares controls body temperature, thirst, hunger, sleep and mood.

Describe three clean coal technologies and how they can mitigate the environmental impacts of coal. Explain how they work and pr
Andrej [43]

Clean coal technology refers to a gathering of technologies being created in order to reduce the environmental influence of coal energy production and to mitigate global climate change. There are three distinct technological procedures accessible for the aim of capturing carbon as demanded by the clean coal concept:  

1. Pre-combustion capture: This includes gasification of a feedstock like coal to generate gas that may be shifted to develop a mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas, from which the carbon dioxide can be effectively separated and captured, transported, and eventually sequestered.  

2. Post-combustion capture: This is the capturing of carbon dioxide from the exhaust gases of combustion methods.  

3. Oxy-fuel combustion: The fossil fuels like coal are combusted in a mixture of oxygen and recirculated flue gas, rather than in air that hugely withdraws nitrogen from the flue gas allowing capturing of low-cost and efficient carbon dioxide.  

An initial example of a coal-based plant utilizing carbon capturing technology is a Swedish company Vattenfall's Schwarze Pumpe power station situated in Germany.

Regulatory proteins bind to _____. the operator the lactose-utilization genes the regulatory gene RNA polymerase transcription f
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Regulatory gene

Explanation:

Transcription is one of the major processes that occurs during gene expression. It is the transfer of the genetic instructions in DNA to mRNA. A strand of mRNA is made using complementary base pairs.

However, there is need for gene expression to be regulated.

Gene regulation refers to the mechanism that acts to induce or repress the expression of a gene. These include structural & chemical changes to the genetic material, binding of proteins to specific DNA elements to regulate transcription. These proteins that influences transcription by binding to specific nucleotide sequences (DNA segments/gene) are referred to as REGULATORY PROTEINS and those involved in regulating transcription of genes are called TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS.

Regulatory proteins controls the rate and manner of gene expression by binding to specific genes, thus, making it easy or hard for RNA polymerase (enzyme that attaches to DNA to synthesize mRNA molecule) to bind to the promoter of that gene.

Transcription factors (regulatory proteins) that promote gene transcription are called ACTIVATORS while those that decrease are called REPRESSORS.

What is the function of the subplate neurons? Choose the correct option.
Semmy [17]

Answer: C) The subplate neurons attract the appropriate thalamic axons to the different parts.

Explanation:

Subplate neurons are the first developed neurons can be found in the cortex of mammals. These neurons disappear during the process of postnatal development and due to functional maturation.

These neurons are sensitive to the injury, when the humans experience cognitive and motor defects.

These neurons attract the thalamic axons and receive the synaptic inputs through the thalamic axons thus helps in establishing the link between the thalamic axons and the target layer IV. The signals are distributed from the thalamic axons to different parts of the body.
