Answer:

D. The nerves exit the central nervous system in the head and from the lumbar spine.

Explanation:

The preganglionic neurons transmit the nerve impulses through the cranial or spinal nerves that arise from the brain, to the postganglionic neurons from where the nerve fibers that relay these nerve signals to the different viscera and effector organs, located along the spinal cord

Which of the inner transition metals is critical to the nuclear power industry.
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

<u>Uranium</u> is the  inner transition metals is critical to the nuclear power industry.

Explanation:

Uranium is a common transition metal found in rocks and is used for nuclear fission reactions. In a nuclear fission reaction, a neutron atom is hit on a uranium atom. As a result, the uranium atoms breaks down releasing huge amounts of energy. Also, more neutrons are released by the breakdown and hence the this neutron hits other uranium atoms and the cycle continues. The most active radioisotope of uranium being used in nuclear fission reactions is U-235.

The process of translation in prokaryotes can occur faster than in eukaryotes because
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Transcription and translation occur simultaneously in prokaryotes.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles and therefore, do not have a nucleus. Transcription and translation occur in the cytoplasm. As soon as the required length of mRNA is being formed, ribosomes join it and start the process of translation. Prokaryotic genes lack introns. The primary transcript formed by transcription in prokaryotes does not undergo splicing.

On the other hand, the process of transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotes while translation occurs in the cytoplasm. The primary transcript formed by transcription in eukaryotes undergoes modifications to remove introns and to add a poly-A tail and 5' cap. Post-transcriptional modifications and spatial separation of two processes in eukaryotes result in slower translation than prokaryotes.
