One day, you accidentally touch a hot stove given your knowledge about how information is processed in the body, which of the fo

llowing is the best description of how you might perceive “pain?”
A. Information about “heat” would be collected and processed by the central nervous system.

B. Information about “heat” would be collected and by the peripheral nervous system.

C. Information about “heat” would be collected by the central nervous system and transmitted to the peripheral nervous system. The peripheral nervous system would then interpret that information and send a response back to the central nervous system.

D. Information about “heat” would be collected through your fingertips and transmitted by the peripheral nervous system to the parietal lobe of the central nervous system. The central nervous system would then interpret that information and send a response back to the peripheral nervous system

The correct answer is D. Information about “heat” would be collected through your fingertips and transmitted by the peripheral nervous system to the parietal lobe of the central nervous system. The central nervous system would then interpret that information and send a response back to the peripheral nervous system

Explanation:

The nervous system is divided into two main sub-systems the central system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral system (nerves in all the body). In this way, information is first collected in the peripheral system through the nerves located in a specific part of the body, then this information is transferred to specific parts of the brain where it is processed and finally, a response is sent to the peripheral nervous system.

This implies in the case presented, heat is perceived by the fingerprint, then collected by the nerves in fingers, after this, the information is sent to the brain and more specifically to the parietal lobe that processes sensory information; and finally, a response is sent back which makes you move your finger to avoid heat.

You want to identify dominant /recessive relationship for skin color for a new frog species that you found in the rain forest. A
noname [10]

Answer:

bright blue trait = recessive

yellow trait = dominant

Explanation:

let the letter B represent the gene for skin colour.

This means that the dominant gene is 'B' while the recessive gene is 'b'

A dominant gene is one that is exhibited phenotypically in the presence of both gene variants (heter0zygous state - Bb) while a recessive gene is only expressed phenotypically when it is in a h0m0zygous state (bb)

In order to find out the genotype of the parents, let us consider each cross one after the other.

1. A bright blue female and a bright blue male produce all blue progeny.

2. A yellow female and a yellow male produce a mix of both bright blue and yellow progeny

From statement 2, it can be deduced that the trait for yellow colour is dominant because a cross of the parents exhibiting this trait produces bright blue offsprings too, meaning that the genetic composition of the parents contains the gene that codes for yellow colour. Since these parents show a yellow colour in a heterozygous state, then the trait for yellow colour is dominant.

Therefore, the genotypes of the parents in each case include:

1. A bright blue female and a bright blue male produce all blue progeny. (bb × bb)

2. A yellow female and a yellow male produce a mix of both bright blue and yellow progeny (Bb × Bb)
