Answer:

The correct answers are the first, third, fourth, and the fifth statement.

Explanation:

Synapse refers to the gap between the neurons, it conducts information via chemical or electrical impulses towards the cell body. It is the component of the nervous system. It permits information to travel either in chemical or electrical form and make sure that the information is conducted only in one direction.

It is not the part of the neurons, however, it functions as an association between distinct neurons. Thus, the statements, first, third, fourth, and fifth are accurate.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Recent studies have shown that dark skin colour was developed in the past for protection against cancer. Scientists claim that in the past natural selection favoured humans having dark colour as compared to humans having a fair colour. This is because humans having a darker colour produced more melanin which protected them from ultraviolet radiation. As a result, this skin colour protected more against skin cancer.

Question:All known organisms use genetic information to produce protein molecules via the same genetic code. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that __________.

a) the earliest macromolecules probably arose when lightning struck an oxygen-free atmosphere

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

c) the genetic code readily evolves by natural selection

d) there's only one possible way to encode information in a macromolecule

Answer:

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

Explanation:

Protein synthesis occurs when the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. A specific genetic code specifies the same amino acid in all living beings. For example, the code "UUU" codes for phenylalanine in all the living beings irrespective of their species. This suggests that all the life forms have originated from one or few common ancestors and the genetic code has been preserved during the course of evolution of various species.
