C, you have genes/allels that you got from your parents, but the combination of all your genes together is unique.
Answer:
Myelin sheath
Explanation:
Myelin sheath cover the axon of neurons and act as insulator for the faster transmission of signals.
Each axon is covered by multiple myelin sheaths and the gap between myelin sheath are known as Nodes of Ranvier.
In CNS myelin sheath is composed of glial cell called as oligodendrocytes and in PNS the myelin sheath is composed of Sachwann cells (glial cells).
Answer:
Orthocenter of a Triangle
The orthocenter of a triangle is the point where the perpendicular drawn from the vertices to the opposite sides of the triangle intersect each other.
• For an acute angle triangle, the orthocenter lies inside the triangle.
• For the obtuse angle triangle, the orthocenter lies outside the triangle.
• For a right triangle, the orthocenter lies on the vertex of the right angle.
Answer:
The polarity of membrane phospholipids
Explanation:
The inner core of membranes is made of nonpolar tails of phospholipids which in turn makes the membranes impermeable for polar, large and charged substances since these substances cannot cross the non-polar inner core. The saturated hydrocarbon tails pack tightly and make membrane less permeable while cholesterol affects the membrane permeability by interacting with non-polar tails.
Higher temperatures make the membrane more fluid and more permeable while at lower temperatures, membranes are more rigid due to tight packing of hydrocarbon tails and less permeable. The polar heads of phospholipids make the inner and outer surface of the membrane. Therefore, the polarity of phospholipids does not affect the membrane permeability.
Answer:
Plague is caused by Yersinia pestis. It is unicellular and placed in the bacteria domain.
Explanation:
Plague is caused by bacteria Yersinia pestis , a zoonotic bacteria usually found in the small mammals and their fleas. It is a gram-negative, nonmotile, rod-shaped, coccobacillus bacteria, with no spores. It is a facultative anaerobic organism that can infect humans via the Oriental rat flea.Y. pestis was discovered in 1894 by Alexandre Yersin, a Swiss/French physician and bacteriologist from the Pasteur Institute, during an epidemic of the plague in Hong Kong. Yersin was a member of the Pasteur school of thought. Kitasato Shibasaburō, a German-trained Japanese bacteriologist who practised Koch's methodology, was also engaged at the time in finding the causative agent of the plague. However, Yersin actually linked plague with Y. pestis. named Pasteurella pestis in the past, the organism was renamed Yersinia pestis in 1944.
