What is the difference between translocation and addition?

Biology
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
4 0
The answer is

Recombination is an exchange between homologous chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 from mom x chr 1 from dad). Since it usually happens during meiosis, these strands are later separated. Recombination can be unequal or equal, but it's usually equal, and unequal crossovers are generally quite small (but a common source of addition/deletion).

Reciprocal translocation refers to an exchange between different chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 x chr 2). It is considered a large scale mutation (resulting in a large addition to one chromosome, and a large deletion in another).

How does myelination of axons in the brain regulate the timing of postsynaptic activations?
almond37 [142]
The myelination of axons or the presence of the myelin sheath regulates the conduction velocity of the nerve impulses by acting as an insulator to the nerve fibers. The spaces or gaps between each myelin sheath are called the nodes of Ranvier and the impulse go from one node to another. This phenomenon is called saltatory conduction. 

Nice to know: The myelin sheath in the central nervous system is provided by cells called oligodendrocytes. On the other hand, the myelin sheath in the peripheral nervous system is provided by cells called the Schwann cells.

Explain why a person with nerve damage could lose the ability to control some skeletal muscles
grin007 [14]
The nervous system is responsible for the many actions and movement of the body. It is an organ system that sends and receives, even also influences many cellular and organismic phenomenon.
A nerve damage at a specific area for example a nerve damage was incurred for your right hand, since the nerves in that area were destroyed or were paralyzed the dendrites are unable to receive and the terminal buds are unable to send a specific neurotransmitter called the acetycholine for the muscle cells to initiate and process the enzyme which enables the muscle to interact and react.
