Answer:

option D

Explanation:

In the process of surgically removing one person,s brain, there is a very high chance that a completely clean cut is not made during this procedure generating scarred nerve tissue which is the inability of nerve tissue to heal properly; scarred nerve tissue also do not transmit signals well. And these neurons do not renew themselves. They do not divide at all. Due to the fact that loss of neurons is usually permanent and the nervous system can permanently lose some of its abilities.

  • Hydrogen bond falls in the category of weak forces. 
  • In size-exclusion chromatography, the type of interaction that takes place between the proteins and dextran is hydrogen bonding. 
  • The hydrogen bonding is possible because dextran, being a polysaccharide of glucose has several hydroxyl groups and thus, they get involved in the hydrogen bonding.
