<span>The two strands of DNA are complementary. That is, there are four bases and each base in one strand interacts with only one base in the other strand. If you know all the bases in one strand you will be able to figure out all the bases in the other strand. I</span><span>f you are given a strand with the sequence ATTCAG, you know the strand it interacts with has to be TAAGTC. F</span><span>or example, A interacts only with T and C interacts only with G.</span>

Describe the structure of a neuron. Include the cell body, dendrites, and axon in your description. How does the structure of a
igomit [66]

Answer: A neuron has three main parts: dendrites, an axon, and a cell body or soma , which can be represented as the branches, roots and trunk of a tree, respectively. A dendrite (tree branch) is where a neuron receives input from other cells. Dendrites branch as they move towards their tips, just like tree branches do, and they even have leaf-like structures on them called spines.

The axon (tree roots) is the output structure of the neuron; when a neuron wants to talk to another neuron, it sends an electrical message called an action potential throughout the entire axon.

The features of neurons help them to carry out their function efficiently:

they have a long fibre (axon) so they can carry messages up and down the body over long distances

in a stimulated neuron, an electrical nerve impulse passes along the axon

the axon is insulated by a fatty (myelin) sheath - the fatty sheath increases the speed of the nerve impulses along the neuron

at each end of the neuron are tiny branches (dendrons), which branch even further into dendrites - the dendrites receive incoming nerve impulses from other neurons

Explanation:

Hope this is helpful!!

Which organelle serves as temporary storage of melanin or glycogen?
OLga [1]

Answer: Inclusions or inclusion structures serve as temporary storage of molecules like glycogen and melanin.

Inclusion structures are the aggregates formed of specific molecule types.

The inclusion bodies serve the purpose of temporary storage for molecules such as proteins, lipids, glycogen and melanin. One of the major differences between cell organelle and cell inclusion is that organelles are the living components or subcomponents which have particular functions but cell inclusions are non-living compounds or by products of metabolism process present in the cytoplasm.
