Answer: Injury to spinal cord

Spinal cord performs two functions, one is that it connects the peripheral nervous system to the brain. It transfers the information through sensory neurons to the brain.

So, any damage to the spinal cord can result in complete loss of sensation and muscle function. It can break the information transfer link between the brain and the body as a result of that the body will lose the ability to perform simple reflexes.

A transcriptional repressor that controls the transcription of gene A is not normally active unless bound by an effector molecul
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Increase in transcription

Explanation:

Transcription is the process of forming RNA from DNA. It can be controlled by many factors like a repressor. Repressor can bind to the operator region of the promoter and hinder the movement of RNA Polymerase enzyme, halting the process.

Here, it is given that the repressor needs to first bind to an effector molecule X. Once it binds to X, it is activated and then it can bind to operator of gene A to inhibit its transcription. If the X binding domain on repressor is mutated it wont be able to bind to X. Thus it wont get activated and wont be able to attach to operator region to inhibit transcription. Hence, transcription process will keep going on uncontrolled.

Energy enters a food chain as heat energy and leaves it as light energy.
hjlf

Answer:

The statement that says "Energy enters a food chain as heat energy and leaves it as light energy" is false.

Explanation:

The energy that enters the food chains, first of all, is light energy from the sun. This energy is assimilated by plants to convert it into chemical energy, through  photosynthesis.

When energy flows from producers, plants, to consumers and decomposers, a great amount of <u>energy is lost, in the form of </u><u>heat energy</u>, due to the metabolism of living beings. Additionally, the second law of thermodynamics states that when energy passes from one form to another it leads to disorder in the system, which would also explain the loss of energy.

The true statement is "Energy enters a food chain as <u>light energy</u> and leaves it as <u>heath energy"</u>.
