Answer:

A neuron that has only one axon but several dendrites is classified as:

a. multipolar neuron.

Explanation:

  • The neurons are the fundamental unit of the nervous system.
  • The nervous system consist of only two types of cell; neurons and neuroglia.
  • Neurons are specialized to respond to physical and chemical stimuli, conduct nerve impulse and release neurotransmitter , while the neuroglia supports , nourish and protect the neuron.
  • Most neurons have three parts: a cell body, dendrites and axon.
  • Neurons show a great diversity in size and shape, and are classified on the basis of structure and function.

On the Basis of structure the neurons are classified as: unipolar, bipolar and multipolar. (Multidendritic neurons are studied in <em>Drosophilla </em>and are reported to be a result of misexpressed<em> gene</em>)..

  • Multipolar neurons are the most common type of neurons in the brain and spinal cord and have several dendritic processes and one axon.
  • Bipolar neurons  are found in retina of the eye, in the inner ear and in the olfactory area of the brain and are characterized by one dendrite and one axon.
  • Uni-polar neurons have single processes extending from the cell body which divide into two branches.

On the basis of function neurons are classified as; sensory, motor and association neurons.

Circulatory system pumps blood from the heart to the lungs to get oxygen. The heart then sends oxygenated blood through arteries to the rest of the body. The veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart to start the circulation process over. Your circulatory system is critical to healthy organs, muscles and tissues.

The host range of a virus is determined by A. whether the glycoproteins or capsid proteins on its surface recognize those of the
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

A. whether the glycoproteins or capsid proteins on its surface recognize those of the host cells.

Explanation:

Virus has different surface proteins that are recognized by the receptors present on its host cell. The range of a virus is determined by the recognition of these proteins by the host cell.

The interaction between the receptor on the host cell and surface proteins on the viral capsid is important for viral genome entry in the host cell and to determine the range of the host cells.

If the surface protein of the virus is not able to bind to the receptor on any cell then the virus can not infect the cell. For example, the HIV virus infects only those cell which have CD4 receptors. So the right answer is A.
