Answer:

B. axon hillock

Explanation:

The axon hillock is the junction where the cyton connects with the axon. There is only one axon hillock in the neuron and it is a triangular depression of cell boy to the axon. The axons receives impulse from cyton carry to the different parts of the body. The axon hillock is also called initial segment. Because action potential starts here.

Myelin sheath is the cover or layer around the axon and helps in saltatory movement of impulse. The propagation of impulse is fast in myelinated neurons than the non-myelinated neurons.

The neurolemma is the neural membrane of the neurons. It is like the plasma membrane of the cell. The outer covering of neurons is called neurilemma.

Axon collateral is the end of the axon where axon terminals arise. They carry impulse and transmit to the synapse.

How are the lytic and lysogenic cycles similar and different in terms of process and infection?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

<h2>Lytic cycle: involve that there is rupture( lysis) of the host cell and release many copies of virus. </h2><h2>Lysogenic cycle:  involve the insertion of the nucleic acid of a bacteriophage into host genome, known as prophage. </h2>

Explanation:

There are many  similarities and differences between lysogenic and lytic cycles that;

1. Lysogenic cycle of bacteriophage :

i)  in lysogenic cycle:  bacteriophage insert its DNA with that of a host, known as prophage and it replicates with host.

2. Lytic cycle of bacteriophage:

i) lytic cycle is that it results in many copies of the virus very quickly and the cell is ruptured and many copies of virus are released.

4. Similarity is that in both cycles bacteriophase inter into the host and use their machinery.
