Neurons are the main cell of the nervous system which is responsible for communication of organs and control of many bodily functions. Neurons transmit electrochemical signals which are known as neurotransmitters and neuromodulators that act as messengers for sensory input and motor output.
Also, the nervous system is composed of two main branches which are the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord whereas the peripheral nervous system is composed of the nerves around the body.

In a diploid individual, one chromosome carries A and B genes, and the homologous chromosome carries different forms (alleles) o

Helen [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

This involves a dihybrid inheritance I.e. two genes are being passed on. During meiosis, specifically, the Prophase stage, homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) line side by side. According to the question, one chromosome contains A and B alleles and its homologue, received by the other parent carries a and b alleles. This means that the diploid individual has a genotype AaBb for that gene.

According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the alleles separate independently of one another into gametes. I.e. allele A and a separates into the gametes without affecting alleles B and b of the other gene.

Crossing-over, which is the exchange of chromosomal segment occurs between the two homologues. Hence, the exchange of chromosomal segments containing alleles in the individual will possibly produce four gametes with the genotypes: AB, Ab, aB, ab.
