Neuroscientists conducted research with taxicab drivers in London and found that taxicab drivers, who are required to have a tremendous amount of spatial and geographic knowledge, had a larger <u>hippocampus</u> than other drivers.

Option D.hippocampus

Explanation:

Hippocampus is concerned with following important functions:

  • Storage of new information in the memory (converting short memories into long memories)
  • Comparing sensory information with what the brain expects about the world

prisoha [69]

Answer:

B. Oncogene

Explanation:

A gene that makes the body cells to divide in an uncontrolled manner is called an oncogene. An oncogene is responsible for the development of tumors due to disturbed regulation of cell division. The gene src makes the cells to enter the process of cell division in response to the growth factors.

However, the mutant src gene does not require the presence of growth factors and signals the cells to enter the process of cell division even in the absence of the growth factors. Since the mutant src gene causes uncontrolled cell division, it represents an oncogene.
