Answer:

Sensory adaptation.

Explanation:

  • An exposure to constant or prolonged stimulus will slowly decrease our response.
  • For example, when we rested our arm or hand on the table then the surface of the table will abruptly feel against our hand.
  • Sensory adaptation helps us in daily life work by decreasing our response to constant stimulus that's why we give our attention to other environmental aspects. If our response will remain constant to prolonged stimulus then we can't detect new or important environmental aspects.

When is the lac operon most active?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: The correct answer to the question is option WHEN GLUCOSE LEVELS ARE LOW AND LACTOSE IS PRESENT.

Explanation: To start with,Lac operon can be simply defined as a part of the DNA that is under the part of the DNA is manipulated and controlled by the same promoter,they can be found in some prokaryotic cells giving room for regulation over excess synthesis of protein.so simply put,these specific segment of the DNA binds with the segment of the polymerase of RNA so that transcription of the mRNA from the operon genes will be achieved.

Lac operon is also known as lactose operon, it is seen in some enteric bacteria like e.coli where they play a crucial role in coding of genes for those proteins that function in moving lactose into the cystocel and digesting it to form glucose that is used for energy generation. These lac operon are are most active when glucose levels are low and lactose is present,with the low level of glucose, the lac operon can be transcribed to a high level,this is to ascertain that the bacteria only gets to activate the lac operon and can only make use of it,that is using lactose when all the preferred energy source from glucose has been exhausted.

Match the enzymes to their role in the DNA replication process.
Feliz [49]

The correct matching of enzymes and their role in the process of DNA replication is A- 3, B- 5, C-1, D-2 and E-4.

Replication is the process of synthesis of two indentical copies of DNA from a single DNA molecule. It is catalyzed by a set of enzymes with the following function-

A. RNA primase synthesizes an RNA primer (short sequence of RNA) on the lagging strand complementary to the single stranded DNA which acts as template during DNA replication.

B. Ligase is involved in joining the okazaki fragments on the lagging strand together and sealing the nicks of the DNA strand.

C. Helicase separates the two DNA strands at the replication fork.

D. Polymerase synthesizes the complementary daughter strand by adding nucleotides to DNA.

E. Topoisomerase relaxes the highly coiled DNA by creating nick ahead of the replication fork in the phosphate backbone of DNA strands.

Hunger researchers initially assumed that the _____________ was a brain region responsible for initiating hunger and eating beca
qaws [65]

Answer:

Lateral Hypothalamus

Explanation:

According to the hunger researchers' initial assumption lateral hypothalamus is that part of the brain which regulates intake of food and metabolical activities like metabolical regulation of peptides like  the orexins melanin-concentrating hormone. It is that part of the brain that plays a key role in the ingestive behavior regulation.

The lateral hypothalamus system initiates physical and cognitive processes like it promotes arousal and feeding behavior, metabolism, regulates body temperature, BP, etc. and when stimulated it results in the feeding behaviour in animals as they begin to eat.
