What are the roles of the parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic nervous system in maintaining everyday homeostasis?

Biology

7 0

Answer: The parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic nervous system play opposite roles

Explanation:

To ensure a stable internal environment (homeostasis) is achieved, the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) and sympathetic nervous system (SNS) play OPPOSITE roles.

The PNS dominate during relaxed periods and stimulates the

- liver to break down glycogen

- constriction of bladder to pass out urine

- increases heartbeat

- dilate pupils etc

The SNS, in contrast dominate in times of emergency or stressful periods and do the EXACT opposite of the processes mentioned above.

Thus homeostasis is maintained

Where do DAG and IP3 originate?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Option (4).

Explanation:

Phosphatidylinositol4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is the phospholipid present in plasma membrane. This lipid is important for the cell communication and cell signalling process.

The PIP2 can cleave and give two main products are DAG (diacylglycerol) and IP3 ( inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate). These two molecules are important for the cell signalling.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).

Generally speaking, which of the following mutations would most severely affect the protein coded for by a gene?a) a base substi
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Answer is C.

Explanation:

For A and B, a base substitution affects one of the three bases that comprise a codon, the DNA/RNA unit that corresponds to a particular amino acid. If one base is substituted, one codon and therefore one amino acid will be affected. Codons have built-in redundancy, so even by changing one base, the new codon sometimes still corresponds to the same amino acid. Therefore, a base substitution at most affects one amino acid, and sometimes doesn't affect it all.

Frameshift mutations cause a lot more trouble. These occur when you have a deletion or insertion that changes the number of bases in your gene. As a result, the "frame" of the codons changes (everything shifts one way or the other by the number of bases added/removed). This affects EVERY codon downstream of the mutation, so you can imagine that such a mutation would have a bigger effect the closer to the start of the gene it occurs. This is why C is correct.
