Answer;

Retinohypothalamic path


A small branch of the optic nerve, known as the retinohypothalamic path extends directly from the retina to the SCN.


Explanation;

The SCN is an abbreviations for suprachiasmatic nucleus or nuclei; which is a region in the hypothalamus. that is responsible for controlling circadian rhythms.

Retinohypothalamic path is a neural input pathway that extends directly from the retina to the SCN.

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.

What was known before Franklin and Wilkins conducted their studies of DNA? Check all that apply. DNA is found in the nucleus of
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

   1. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell

    2. Organisms store and transmit genetic information

    3. Cells contain protein molecules.

Explanation:

The study of DNA started much before the discoveries of Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins.

Nucleus of cell was discovered by Robert Brown in 1831 but the material present inside the nucleus called "nuclein" (DNA) came from the studies of Johann Friedrich Miescher in 1869.

Proteins as a constituent of cell were discovered by the experimental analysis of Gerhardus Johannes Mulder in 1837.

DNA as a genetic material came from the experimental studies of Frederick Griffith in 1928, Oswald Avery, Maclyn McCarty, and Colin MacLeod in 1944, and Hershey and Chase in 1952.

Franklin and Maurice Wilkins are known for their work on the the structure of DNA as they were able to produce high-resolution X-ray photographs of DNA fibres called Photo 51 in 1952 using X-ray diffraction technique. By 1953 Franklin concluded concluded that DNA shows helical structure with phosphates on outer side.

Thus, 1. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell

         2. Organisms store and transmit genetic information

         3. Cells contain protein molecules.

             are the correct options.
