Answer:

<h2>Gray matter: the gray matter is arranged intohorns: The posterior horn extends towards the dorsal root, the anterior horn extends towards the ventral horn, and the lateral horn lies between the posterior and anterior horns. </h2>

Explanation:

The posterior horn is associated with the sensory nerve cells, the anterior horn is associated with the somatic motor neuron, and the lateral horn associated with the ANS ( autonomic nervous system).

Posterior horn:

Sensory neurons pass through the dorsal root ganglion after that the dorsal root and in the gray matter the neurons synapse to inter neurons in the posterior horn or may continue to the white matter and  then enter the spinal cord.

Anterior horn:

The motor portion of the nervous system has two parts; i) the somatic motor system and the ii) autonomic nervous system. The somatic motor neuron stimulates the skeletal muscle with stimulation. The somatic motor neuron cell bodies (part of verve cell) are in the anterior horn of the gray matter.

Lateral horn:  

The autonomic motor neuron send stimulation to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands etc. The cell bodies( part of nerve cell) of the autonomic motor neuron are in the lateral horn of the gray matter.

A group of six students has taken samples of their own cheek cells, purified the DNA, and used a restriction enzyme known to cut
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

D. The two students who have two fragments have one restriction site in this region.

Explanation:

The DNA samples from the cheek cells were subjected to digestion with a restriction enzyme. This enzyme is an endonuclease and cuts the DNA at a specific sequence only. This sequence is called a restriction site. If the restriction site is not present in the sample DNA, the restriction enzyme cannot cut it. The presence of one restriction site in the sample DNA would cut it into two DNA fragments.

Similarly, the presence of two restriction sites in each DNA molecule would obtain a total of three DNA fragments per DNA molecule.

A dumping site in the small town of Love Canal, New York, was used for the disposal of industrial chemical wastes from 1970-1975
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

There is no control group and variables were not addressed.

Explanation:

In the context, it is given that there is a dumping ground in a small town called Love Canal and harmful chemical waste of industries are dumped there. Lately, it is noticed that there were traces of the toxic substances on the walls of the schools and the hospitals. The hospitals also noticed that during the period of 1970 to 1980, there were increase in the number of the birth defects in the area. The people of the Love Canal has genetic abnormalities and the chemical waste is responsible for it.

Thus it can be concluded that there is a no such any control group in this case. The confounding variables like the comorbidities as well as the family history of the genetic defects were not addressed.
