Answer:

A reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls a reflex. In vertebrates, most sensory neurons do not pass directly into the brain, but synapse in the spinal cord. This allows for faster reflex actions to occur by activating spinal motor neurons without the delay of routing signals through the brain.

It uses a reflex arc because a reflex controls the brain and makes you think quick to do a fast movement that is known as a reflex, a example is something falling and your instinct is to catch it.

Taq DNA polymerase is an enzyme which can withstand the high temperature as it is resistance to heat therefore is heat stable. This enzyme plays an important role in Polymerase chain reaction as a procedure requires high temperature.

The enzyme was originally isolated from a thermophilic bacterium named <em>Thermus aquaticus</em> near the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. The Taq word was adapted from the name of the bacteria as<em> T</em><em>hermus </em><em>aq</em><em>uaticus </em>= Taq and polymerase as it poylmerizes the DNA.

In humans, what is the results when a valve is leaking blood backward in the heart
Sav [38]

This causes a phenomenon referred to as valve regurgitation. This reduces the flow of blood in the blood vessels and causes a reduction in the oxygenation of tissues of the body. This causes homeostatic signaling by the body resulting in the exertion of the heart pumping and increased breathing (heavy breathing). This is why some of the symptoms include shortness of breath,   fatigue, and light-headedness.
