Say you were 100 meters tall. In that case, the nerve impulse would reach your brain in about 1 second, since it goes 100 meters per second. You're a little less than 50 times shorter, so the nerve impulse must take a little less than 1/50th of a second. 

In fact, distance traveled = speed of travel * time it takes. Thus, 
time = distance/speed 
==> time = 1.7m/(100m/s) 
<span>==> time ~ 0.017 seconds, or about 17 milliseconds.


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.</span>

The cytometry analysis provides us with the presence and the abundance of </span><span>clusters of differentiation (CD), for example, the research of CD2, CD3 and CD4 in lymphocytes.
</span>These CDs will be marked (if they are present) with specific antibodies linked with different fluorochromes, and when the <span>cells exit the flow cell intersect, a laser detects these fluorochromes (representing CDs) and count them.
</span><span>The result will be displayed in a graph showing the frequency of the CDs with spots of different colours.

What feature of DNA allows for faithful copies to be made during DNA replication and passed on to the daughter cells? If you can
otez555 [7]

Answer:

complementary base-pairing rules

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of living cells. It is a long chain of double-stranded molecules, in which each strand is complementary to one another i.e. Adenine base is paired with Thymine base while Guanine base pairs with Cytosine base following the complementary base pairing rule as proposed by Chargaff. This pairing is responsible for the double helical structure of the DNA.

The complementary base pairs that a DNA molecule contains make it able to produce identical copies of itself during replication or duplication. Before replication of DNA can occur, the double strands need to unwind to form two separate strands, which serves as a template for the synthesis of new complementary strands.

In this manner, each new strand contains one template strand and one complementary strand, which forms two new double helix that is identical to the original strand. This two identical copies of DNA gets separated into two daughter cells, which is the essence of the DNA replication.
