Answer: The correct answer is - 3) olfactory receptors neurons that detect smell. 4) photoreceptors neurons that detect light .

1) and 2) statements are correctly matched in the question..

Olfactory receptors are also called odorant receptors. The olfactory receptor neurons detect smell and thus give a sense of smell to the organism. They are present in the nasal cavity.

Photoreceptor neurons are those that detect light and they are present in the retina of eye.

Why is it so important to properly don and remove personal protective equipment?
artcher [175]
<span>Personal protective equipment is only helpful if regulations for using it are followed carefully. If it is not worn and used properly, then it will not function properly and it might not provide the protection that is needed in the situation. For example, a helmet is only effective if it is fitted properly and snugly on the head. Otherwise it could fall off in an accident and be rendered useless.</span>

Is the current rate of species loss 10 times the typical rate of extinction?
Anika [276]
The natural rate of extinction as assumed by science is about 5 species per year. Currently scientists estimate we are losing species at 1000-10000 times that rate, with multiple species disappearing every day. A note on this idea is that the average extinction rate gives an unrealistic depiction of nature when we consider the catastrophic extinction events that ended the dinosaurs and shaped the ice age.

In which ways can the individual steps of this process be regulated to lead to higher or lower expression of a particular protei
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

There are many points at which eukaryotic gene expression can be controlled, through pretranscriptional control, transcriptional control, and posttranscriptional control

Explanation:

The pretranscriptional control determines the accessibility of chromatin to the transcription machinery. It is affected by supercoiling and methylation. It is also known as epigenetic regulation, and it does not depend on the sequence but on the conformation of the DNA.

While transcriptional control determines the frequency and / or speed of transcription initiation through the accessibility of the start sites, the availability of transcription factors and the effectiveness of promoters.

The post-transcriptional control is the one that is exercised once the transcript has finished synthesizing. It can be of several types:

• Maturation control: As the RNA adjustment can be made.

• Transport control: Most RNA has to go out to the cytoplasm to perform its function. For this they have to cross the pores of the nuclear membrane, where you can select the RNAs that will be transported and those that will not.

• Stability control: The half-life of RNA can be regulated by the expression of RNAs or mRNA stabilizing proteins in the cytoplasm.

• Translational control: It is exercised on the frequency with which the mRNAs begin to be translated. It can also affect the frequency with which proteins mature and the availability of enzymatic effectors.

What biological process accounts for the oxygen algae produce
Ivan

Answer:

The ocean produces oxygen through the plants (phytoplankton, kelp, and algal plankton) that live in it. These plants produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, a process which converts carbon dioxide and sunlight into sugars the organism can use for energy.
