in your nucleus

Explanation:

DNA is where your genetic information is stored. Genetic information is essentially the "blue print" for you! Your DNA makes up who you are.

DNA is located in the nucleus of your cells. Each of your cells has a nucleus, therefore each cell of your body has DNA.

Hope this helped!

How is the amount of urine produced regulated
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

The amount of urine produced depends on the amount of excess water and dissolved wastes that are present in the body. Other factors such as habitat and hormone such as Anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) also regulates the amount of urine produced. When excess water is more in the body, diluted urine is excreted whereas when the excess water is less, the urine is concentrated.

Botulism and myasthenia gravis are conditions that cause muscle weakness. Which of these statements is NOT true? Botulism and my
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Both conditions are caused by an inability of the body to produce adequate acetylcholine.

Explanation:

Botulism is a potentially fatal condition caused by the toxin of bacteria <em>Clostridium botulinum</em>. Early symptoms are weakness, slurred speech, blurred vision etc. It may lead to vomiting, abdominal swelling and respiratory failure if not treated. The toxin hinders the release of neurotransmitter acetylcholine due to which motor neurons are not able to send signals to muscle cells. Muscles are not able to function properly due to which paralysis occurs.

Myasthenia gravis is also a neuromuscular condition like botulism. But unlike botulism release of acetylcholine is not hindered here. The receptors for acetylcholine are destroyed or altered by body's own immune system. Acetylcholine despite being present is not able to relay the signal which leads to muscle weakness. Symptoms are almost similar to those of botulism.

ValentinkaMS [17]
 1.The nucleus is often considered to be the cell's control center.
(because it contains the DNA)

2.The cytoplasm consists of everything inside the plasma membrane of the cell.
(actually it excludes the nucleus)

 3.The plasma membrane forms a boundary between the inside and outside of the cell. - it controls what can enter and what can't!


4.The cytoskeleton is essentially a "skeleton" inside the cell..
it maintains the form of the cell

5.The rough endoplasmic reticulum is covered with
Ribosomes -they make the proteins!


6.Lysosomes use enzymes to break down foreign matter and dead cells.

 7.plant cells cells specifically have a cell wall, a large central vacuole, and chloroplasts.-choloplasts are only found in plants!

Describe how advances in DNA technolgy are assisting the work of those in medical fields
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Advances in DNA technology have allowed for treatments such as gene therapy in the medical field. Nowadays, there are tools like the CRIPSR-Cas9 - harnessed from bacteria's immune system- that can nip a ‘bad’ region of DNA, which is responsible for disease, and replace it with a proper functioning bit. This is how genetic disorders are going to be addressed in the near future in mainstream medical facilities.

Recombinant DNA technology is being used to create clones of transgenic organisms that produce products of significance in the medical fields. An example is incorporating the insulin gene in bacteria genome. These clones of modified bacteria colonies secrete insulin protein that is purified and injected in diabetic persons to lower their sugar level to normal.
