What type of receptors embedded in the urinary bladder wall initiate the micturition reflex?

1 answer:

6 0

Answer is stretch receptors.

Stretch receptors respond to the distention of muscle wall of the bladder and are neurologically linked to the medulla. Stretch receptors in the bladder signal the parasympathetic nervous system to stimulate muscarine receptors, present in the detrusor muscle, to make him contract. This leads to the expulsion of urine.

What is the first thing that can cause a change in allele frequency?

kogti [31]

N 9 Viruses use the host's machinery to make copies of themselves. However, some human viruses require a type of replication tha

Amanda [17]

Answer:

This is because the Viron has in its genome a specialized code for synthesising any missed enzyme for replication that is lacking in the host cell.

An example is the replication of the human DNA cells by the Immunodeficiency virus(HIV) . Human cells only have enzymes for copying DNA templates, and lacks the enzyme to convert the HIV RNA genome to human DNA.However these viruses have in its genome; code for synthesising its own RNA polymerase enzymes that copies or transcribed the human DNA to HIV RNA.

This ability of the viral cell to code for the host's enzyme has a therapeutic effect. Drugs can be targeted at the viral polymerase enzymes to reduce the replication and therefore toxicity in the host cells.
