Which lobe of the cortex is the executive center processing thought, consciousness, and voluntary movement?

1 answer:

5 0

The lobe of the cerebral cortex of the brain responsible for most higher cortical functions such as thought processing, consciousness, and voluntary movement is the frontal lobe. The frontal lobe is also involved in other cortical functions such as judgement, calculation, and impulse.

<em>The specific area for thought processing is the Brodmann area 45 in the inferior frontal gyrus. The specific area for voluntary movement is Brodmann area 6 in the premotor cortex. There is no specific area for consciousness in the frontal lobe.</em>

Answer: Option a) the frequency of the homozygous dominants will go down, the frequency of the heterozygous genotype will go down, and the frequency of the homozygous recessives will go up

Explanation: Another name for gene frequency is the allele frequency. It is the percentage of any chromosomes in the population that contains that particular gene or allele. It also shows the genetic diversity that can present in a species.

Water molecules in lakes and the atmosphere and many miles

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Evaporation is the process which allow water molecules to move between lakes and the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Evaporation is a process in which water which is present in liquid form in lakes and ocean evaporated in the form of water vapours. These vapours goes upward and form clouds which moves toward hilly areas with the help of wind. The water present in the clouds come back to the land in the form of rainfall and snowfall. This water flows through the streams and collected in the rivers again and repeat this process.

When a cell containing an endospore (such as Bacillus subtilis) is stained with the Gram's method, the cell is stained but the e

Liula [17]

Answer:

Endospores Staining

Endospores are substances that are formed inside of specific bacterial cells which boost their survival rate in times of harsh conditions.

Gram staining alone is not sufficient to observe the endospores, which seems apparently clear when Gram-stained cells are observed.

Endospore staining employs two stains to identify endospores from other cell components.

•The Schaeffer-Fulton method employs heat to promote the primary stain (malachite green) into the endospore. Rinsing with water will well wash away the colour from the cell, as the endospore still appears to be green stained. Counterstaining pink with safranin will show the shape and location of endospores, if they are a part of the cell. The green endospores will be seen inside the pink vegetative cells or it will appear distinct from the pink cells in total. If no endospores are seen, only the pink vegetative cells will be observable.

The attached image shows a stained preparation of Bacillus subtilis revealing the endospores as green and its vegetative cells in pink coloration.

Endospore-staining procedures are essential for observing Bacillus and Clostridium, two genera of endospore-forming bacteria, production of bioterrorism agent from B. anthracis (which causes anthrax.
