Mixed cranial nerves containing both motor and sensory fibers include all except which of the following?
Fed [463]

Answer:

Answer is option D.

Olfactory nerve is a sensory cranial nerve.

Explanation:

Nerves are the part of peripheral nervous system, which transmit signals from brain or spinal cord (central nervous system) to the different parts of the body and vice versa.

Based on the direction of signal transmission, they are classified into three groups;  sensory nerves (afferent nerves) pass signals from sensory receptors (pain, pressure, temperature etc) in various parts of the body to the central nervous system, motor nerves (efferent nerves) transmit signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands all throughout the body, mixed nerves contain both sensory and motor fibers which conduct both sensory information and muscle commands throughout the body.

Based on where they are connected to the central nervous system, they are classified into two groups; spinal nerves connected to the spinal cord and cranial nerves attached to the brain.  All the 31 spinal nerves are combined sensory and motor axons.

Of the 12 cranial nerves, three are sensory nerves, four are motor nerves and five are mixed nerves. The sensory cranial nerves are olfactory (smell), optic (vision) and acoustovestibular (hearing and balance) nerves.  The motor cranial nerves are trochlear (controls the superior oblique muscle of the eyeball), abducens (controls the lateral rectus muscle of the eyeball), accessory (controls the trapezius muscle in the back and shoulders), hypoglossal (controls the muscles of the throat and helps in swallowing) nerves.  The five mixed cranial nerves are occulomotor, trigeminal, facial, glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves.

In a population of 200, 86 individuals express the recessive phenotype. What percent of the population would you predict would b
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. 45%

Explanation:

From the Hardy- Weinberg law, we have;

p² + 2·p·q + q² = 1

p + q = 1

Where:

p = Dom inant allele frequency in the population

q = Recessive allele frequency in the population

p² = The percentage of individuals in the population that are hom ozygous dominant

q² = The percentage of individuals in the population that are homo zygous recessive

2×p×q = The percentage of hete rozyous individuals in the population

The number of individuals that express the recessive phenotype = 86

The number of individuals in the population = 200

The percentage of  individuals that express the recessive phenotype, q² = 86/200 = 0.43

Therefore;

q = √0.43 = 0.656

p + q = 1

p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.656= 0.344

∴ The frequency of  individuals that express the do minant phe notype, p = 0.344

The percentage of heterozyous individuals in the population = 2×p×q × 100 = 2 × 0.656 × 0.344 × 100 = 45.15% ≈ 45%
