Answer:

The correct answer is- activation synthesis theory

Explanation:

The activation-synthesis theory tells us about the role of neuron in dream production during sleep. It was first proposed in 1977 by Allan Hobson and Robert McCarley which was psychiatrists at Harvard University.

This theory says that in REM sleep some neurons in the lower brains for example in the brain stem randomly activates due to change in neural signals and dream occurs when the cerebral cortex tries to interpret the meaning of these neuron signal changes.  

So the correct answer to this question is- activation-synthesis theory.

What is the difference between cytokinesis in plant and animal cells?
jolli1 [7]

What are the differences between plant and animal mitosis? The most observable difference is the way in which cytokinesis occurs. In plants a new cell wall is fashioned between the new daughter cells, while in animal cells the cell membrane constricts to pinch the parent cell into daughter cells.

Complete the following sentences to indicate which gene expression components are found in virus particles. Click on a term and
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

  1. RNA polymerase is always present in the cell, but sometimes present in viruses.
  2. tRNA is always present in the cell but never present in viruses.
  3. Ribosomes are always present in a cell but never present in viruses.
  4. Genes are always present in the cell, but always present in viruses.

Explanation:

  • Viruses are acellular microorganisms that do not have a biochemical or gene expression of their own. They hijack the host's gene expression system.
  • RNA polymerase is the enzymes that forms RNA primers during DNA replication and the mRNA transcript of template DNA during transcription. Therefore, RNA polymerase is always required in cells.
  • Most viruses lack RNA polymerase except some RNA viruses such as polio viruses that contain an RNA dependent RNA polymerase, an enzyme that synthesizes mRNA from an RNA template.
  • Viruses lack tRNA and ribosomes as they are not capable of translation on their own.
  • Unlike the gene expression machinery, all organisms including viruses have a genome. Viruses can have both DNA and RNA genomes.
