The author implies that visual synesthesia can occur because certain neurons respond to the co-occurrence of a particular color and shape . A plausible hypothesis is that such cells evolved because they increased processing speed in the identification of_______.

A) dangerous predators on the basis of incomplete visual information

B) group member by either appearance or vocalisation

C) appropriate foods by any combination of characteristics.

D) environmental forms and patterns associated with the home territory.

Answer:

A) dangerous predators on the basis of incomplete visual information

Explanation:

Synaesthesia in (neurology) is a neurological or psychological phenomenon whereby a particular sensory stimulus triggers a second kind of sensation.

An hypothesis is used loosely, a tentative conjecture explaining an observation, phenomenon or scientific problem that can be tested by further observation, investigation and/or experimentation.

In this question we examine the neural reflex to the co-occurrence of a particular color and shape for survival in a species.

The cognitive response to the pair of colour and shape is key for a species is important for their survival.

There is and an absence of a positive identification cognition of what dangerous predator is to an animal, it logically anticipate and lock some features up in its mind for to identify a predator through association.

One of such association requires the species to be able to associate a certain color with a certain shape then respond with synaesthesia phenomenon as a flee warning or fight in the presence of probable threats or predator.

If this ability is missing a individual in a population is vulnetable and would not likely respond to only a part of the pair (colour and shape) as a incomplete information only for it to turn out to be a positive identification of a predator, could be too late.

Answer:

The author implies that visual synesthesia can occur because certain neurons respond to the co-occurrence of a particular color and shape. A plausible hypothesis is that such cells evolved because they increased processing speed in the identification of <u>colors.</u>

During, the process or we can say the mechanism inside the living being boy there are very high chances that the color distinguishing factor increases by a very high rate inside the human body system. As the whole system is based upon the distinguishing factors of the multiple factors and terms.

katovenus [111]

Answer and Explanation: The figure below shows the doses of BPA administered to the female mice over time.

An experiment is used to determine cause and effect among variables. When the research is for the impact of a treatment, researchers randomly separate individuals in two groups:

  • <em><u>Control</u></em> <em><u>Group</u></em> doesn't receive any treament or a placebo or a treatment whose outcome is already known;
  • <em><u>Treatment</u></em> <em><u>Group</u></em> receives the treatment;

For the female mice on the image below, in the First Group is not injected any dosage of BPA, so they are the control group, while the <u>others</u> are <u>treatment group</u>.

The variables in a experiment are classified as independents or dependents:

  • <em><u>Independent</u></em> <em><u>Variable</u></em> is the cause;
  • <em><u>Dependent</u></em> <em><u>Variable</u></em> is the effect;

For the BPA research, since it is the effect of BPA over time on the mice's cells it is being investigated, <u>dosage</u> of BPA is the <u>independent</u> variable and <em>time</em> is the <em>dependent</em> variable.

A geneticist isolates a gene for a specific trait under study She also isolates the corresponding mRNA Upon comparison, the mRNA
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

C) no, the final mRNA contains only exons, the introns were removed

Explanation:

Exons are the coding areas while the introns are non-coding areas. Both of these are the sequences of nucleotide within a gene.

RNA splicing is a process which usually occurs as the RNA matures, causing the removal of introns ( non coding areas of the RNA ) i-e they will not be expressed in the final messenger RNA, while exons continue to form covalent bonds with one another to form a  mature mRNA.

So in the given scenario, Upon comparison, the mRNA is found to contain 1,000 fewer bases than the DNA sequence because the introns were removed by RNA splicing.

Hence option C) no, the final mRNA contains only exons, the introns were removed is correct.

Why is feedback inhibition important in metabolic pathways?
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

To balance the production of certain products.

Explanation:

Feedback inhibition is when byproduct from metabolic reactions in cells accumulates and is in excess. The product goes and inhibits the enzyme that is responsible for speeding its chemical reaction, balancing the amount of product needed, with the amount already produced.

Therefore feedback inhibition is important in metabolic pathways because it balances the production of amino acids and nucleotides. It is there to ensure that the exact amount needed is produced.
