What are the two main divisions of the nervous system

Biology

Answer:

From a structural or anatomical point of view, the nervous system is divided into two: the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System (SNP).

Explanation:

The human nervous system develops in the dorsal area (the back) of the embryo as a hollow nerve tube, the neural or ependymal canal. The anterior part thickens to form the brain while the rest constitutes a single nerve cord: the spinal cord, together with the brain, forms the Central Nervous System (CNS). As the embryo develops, axons grow on both sides of the midline and join with connective tissue to give rise to pairs of spinal nerves (leaving the spinal cord) and cranial nerves (leaving the brain). These nerves and their ramifications form the Peripheral Nervous System, which consists of somatic nerves, which innervate the striated (skeletal) muscles, and the autonomic nervous system, which innervates the internal organs (viscera) .

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Provides both the RNA and the polymerase needed for synthesis

Explanation:

Telomerase is an enzyme which extends the telomere sequences present at the end of the chromosomes. The telomerase enzyme acts as DNA polymerase as well as provides the RNA which serves as a template strand rather than the primer.

The polymerase acts as a reverse transcriptase enzyme and synthesizes the DNA strand from the  RNA template. Since the telomerase provides RNA and acts as DNA polymerase, therefore, it is known as the ribonucleoprotein molecule.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

Which of the following is maintained across the terminals of a battery?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Option D, both A and B

Explanation:

The potential difference is created across a battery (between its two terminal –one positive and the other one negative) when work is done to move a charge from one point to another. This potential difference is measured in volts. 1 volt is the potential difference between two points when one joule of potential energy is spent to move a charge of one coulomb from one point to the other.  

Voltage drop across a circuit is the amount of electric current lost due to resistance/ impedance with in the cables of the circuit.  

Hence, both potential difference and voltage drop occurs across the circuit,  

Option D is correct.
