Answer: Glial cells called ASTROCYTES help maintain the blood-brain barrier, whereas SCHWANN CELLS create the myelin that envelopes axons
Explanation: Glial cells are specialized cell that are found in both central and peripheral nervous systems, that surrounds the neurones, providing them with support and insulation. There are different types of Glial cells these includes:
- Astrocytes: they maintain the blood brain barrier.
- Schwann cells: create the myelin that envelopes axons of the peripheral nervous system neurones.
- satellite cells: These cells help regulate the external chemical environment of neurones.
- Microglia: they clean up cellular debris through phagocytosis.
- Oligodendrocytes: create the myelin that envelopes axons of the central nervous system
Answer:
Option C, coracoid process of the scapula
Explanation:
Coracobrachialis muscle is one of the essential muscles that is responsible for the movement of elbow along with biceps brachii and triceps muscles.
The coracobrachialis arises from the coracoid process of the scapula. It assists the elbow in flexion and internal rotation. Musculocutaneous nerve passes through the Coracobrachialis muscle and terminates at the lateral end of the cutaneous nerve of the forearm. However, the Coracobrachialis terminates at the humerus and its medial surface
Hence, option C is correct
<span>A drug used to treat CML, imatinib, binds to the active site of Abl kinase. Why does this drug work to treat this type of cancer?
</span><span>B) By binding to the active site, the drug prevents the ability of Abl kinase to bind to its substrate.
</span>
Imatinib works against CML by binding close to the ATP binding site of bcr-abl. The binding results to the<span> locking in of the bcr-abl to a closed or self-inhibited conformation and inhibiting the enzyme activity of the protein </span><span>semi-competitively.</span>
