Answer:

d. dendrites; axon

Explanation:

The structure of a neuron contains the stem-like structure at one end, the cell body contains the nucleus and the long tube-like structure covered with a myelin sheath called axons.

The axons carry the signal away from the cell body in sensory neurons and the dendrites carry the information towards the cell body.

The signals are transmitted in the form of electrical signals which gets converted into the chemical signal at the synaptic junction through the neurotransmitters released by the synaptic knobs.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

Some individuals have defective genes for LDL receptor receptors rendering them nonfunctional. Individuals with these mutations
deff fn [24]
Individuals with these mutations typically have familial hypercholesterolemia.
These genes provide information for the formation of the low-density lipoprotein receptor, a receptor that binds to low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). LDLs carry the cholesterol in the blood and regulate the amount of cholesterol in the circulation. Mutations to these genes either reduce the number of receptors or cause several disruptions to their function. This results in high blood cholesterol levels and in a higher risk for heart disease.

alina1380 [7]

Answer: the relative differences in arrival times of the S and P seismic waves at several recording stations tell scientists about the different speeds those waves were traveling at, which in turn gives information about the density of the material the layer is made of, and how thick the layer is in several directions.
