In a neuron, axon
is to sending as dendrite is to receiving. In addition regarding neurons, they
transmit messages in the form of electrical impulses and the fundamental
building block of the nervous system. The parts of a neuron are the soma, the
axon, the dendrites and the terminal buttons.
But the blank’s name IS BLANK :FLUSH:
D all of the above because it applys to all
Answer:
Regulatory sites e.g enhancers and silencers
Explanation:
Gene expression involves the synthesis of gene products usually proteins and RNA. However, a certain product might not be needed at all or in small quantity. Gene regulation mechanism is the process that makes this happen. Gene regulation is the mechanism that acts to induce or repress the expression of a gene.
Gene regulation involves controlling the rate and manner of gene expression which is achieved through a set of regulatory proteins called transcription factors. Transcription factors bind to specific regulatory nucleotide sequences and help to turn "on or off" specific genes in the DNA.
Transcription factors can either be ACTIVATORS or REPRESSORS depending on whether they boost or inhibit gene expression. The binding sites for these regulatory proteins called TRANSCRIPTION factors are the regulatory nucleotide sequences on the DNA called enhancers and silencers.
