Answer:
c) degree of myelination of the axon
Explanation:
The myelin sheath covers many axons in central nervous system (CNS) ( by oligodendrocytes) and in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) (by Schwann cells). Their function is to insulate axons and to increase the speed at which information travels from one nerve cell to another.
Nerve conduction velocity is specific to each individual and depend on the level to which that axon is myelinated, but also on an axon's diameter.
Answer:
362 nucleosomes
Explanation:
A nucleosome repeat is made up of the DNA (146 bp) wrapped around the core nucleosome particle and the linker DNA (110 bp as in this situation). We can conclude that, every repeat stands for 256 (146 + 110) base pairs of DNA.
We are given the length of the entire region to be 92,672 bp long,
To determine the number of nucleosomes to organize the region into the 10nm fiber structure
Let,
Number of nucleosomes =
the length of the entire region
------------------- -----
base pairs of DNA.
= 92,672
-------
256
= 362 nucleosomes
Therefore, 362 nucleosomes is needed to structure the region into the 10nm fiber structure.
C) hotspot because it is pushing up causing the lava to go up
Answer:
"The roots of the plant do not make the food. Thus, the answer to this question is letter B. The roots hold the plant in place and through them the minerals and water from the soil. The roots is also involved in the vegetative reproduction and competitions with other plants."
Answer:
Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.
Explanation:
- The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
- The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
- A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
- Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
- Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
- The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
- The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
- The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
- The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.
