Answer:
B. locus ceruleus.
Explanation:
A nucleus present in the pons of brainstem responsible or involved in physiological responses to panic and stress is known as locus ceruleus.
Basically, locus ceruleus is responsible for the primary production of norepinephrine in the brain. The nucleus transfers the norepinephrine to whole cerebral cortex along with various other structures like amygdala, cerebellum, hippocampus, and spinal cord.
So, when there is a panic disorder due to norepinephrine dysregulation at the brainstem area which will be definitely locus ceruleus.
B. usually contains a large amount of matrix
Answer: The correct answer is-
an agent that causes a mutation in DNA.
Mutagen is an agent or a substance that causes permanent change in the genetic material of living organisms ( DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid). This process is called mutation.
A mutagen can be a chemical, physical or biological agent that causes mutation in the DNA.
Example- Physical agents such as -
- Ionizing radiations like alpha particles, gamma rays, X-rays that brings break in the DNA and cause other damages.
- Ultraviolet radiations that creates pyrimidine dimers ( T=T) and causes replication errors if damage is not repaired.
Answer:
1. Part A: No
2. Part B: Yes
3: Part C : Yes
4: Part D : No
Explanation:
1) Part A: Facilitated diffusion of glucose into a muscle cell:
No; sodium ion co - transport is required for active transport of glucose but not for facilitated diffusion of glucose
2) Part B: Active transport of dietary phenylalanine across the intestinal mucosa:
Yes; co - transport of sodium ions drives the inward movement of amino acids and can only occur if sodium ions are actively pumped back out again.
3) Part C: Uptake of potassium ions by red blood cells:
Yes; uptake of potassium ions can occur only via a pump that couples the inward pumping of potassium ions to the outward pumping of sodium ions.
4) Part D: Active uptake of lactose by the bacteria in your intestine
No; active uptake of sugars and amino acids in bacteria is driven by a proton gradient.
