Answer:

B. analyzes sensory information, stores information, makes decisions

Explanation:

The receptors sense the changes or stimuli. The sensory neurons of the nervous system deliver this sensory information to the processing center, that is, to the central nervous system. The central nervous system serves to store the information and analyze it to determine the best suitable response. The ability of the nervous system to the store and process of sensory information to make the effector organs to exhibit the best response represents its integrative function.

If we have a plate that has 2500 colonies on it, can we use this plate to calculate CFU's
AleksAgata [21]

No, the solution with bacteria in it needs to be diluted in order to be in the range of 30 – 300.

A colony-forming unit –CFU is used to estimate the number of viable (ability to divide by binary fission) microbes in a sample.  

A sample of microbes is diluted and spread on a plate. Then, the number of colonies is counted, assuming that each colony have grown from a single colony-forming unit, or CFU.

Plates with more than 300 colonies are difficult to count while those with less than 30 colonies give statistically unreliable numbers of colonies to count.

NeX [460]
Relaxin

<span>Relaxin, secreted by the corpus luteum of the ovary as well as the placenta, is responsible for helping to inhibit uterine activity and to soften the cervix and the collagen in joints. Softening of the cervix allows for dilatation at birth; softening of collagen allows for laxness in the lower spine and so helps enlarge the birth canal. The effect of estrogen is to cause breast and uterine enlargement. Progesterone has a major role in maintaining the endometrium, inhibiting uterine contractility, and aiding in the development of the breasts for lactation. Human placental lactogen (hPL), also known as human chorionic somatomammotropin, serves as an antagonist to insulin, making insulin less effective, thereby allowing more glucose to become available for fetal growth.</span>

Why is it very unlikely for a frameshift mutation to be a silent mutation?
never [62]
When a frameshift mutation occurs, the string of DNA will be glued together. When this DNA is going to be part of a process, such as a transcription, whatever is causing the process is unaware of the mutation actually having happened.
