Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

On piercing his foot, the pain receptors called nociceptors, found in the skin, are activated. Nociceptors exist at the nerve endings of the primary afferent neurons. Signals travel along the first order neurons which have cell bodies within the dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord. In the dorsal root ganglia, the signals are taken up at the synapse with the second order neurons which have cell bodies in the nuclei of the cranial nerves within the brainstem. These neurons ascend cranially in the spinothalamic tract to the thalamus. The third order neurons lie within the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the thalamus. They terminate at the somatosensory cortex where the signals are being processed and returned as a sensation of pain.

Rudiy27

Answer:

The terms old world and the new world are used in the context of history and for the prime objective of differentiating the major ecozones found on the planet. This also helps in categorizing various species of plants and animals that originated in different places and times.

The New World monkeys possess prehensile tails, while the Old World monkeys don't. This suggests that the prehensile tail originated in the monkeys found in the New World, primarily after the separation of the Americas from Asia and Africa.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

You tell her that this is incorrect.

Explanation:

The given information is incorrect as both small and large ribosomal subunits are required for protein synthesis. The eukaryotic ribosomes have E, P, and A sites. The A and P sites bind to the aminoacyl tRNA that carry the amino acid encoded by the codon of the mRNA.

The formation of peptide bond occurs between the amino group of amino acid in A site and the carboxyl group of amino acid present on P site. Both 40S and 60S subunit of ribosome contribute the A and P sites.
