Which statement regarding Bax and Bak, two members of the Bcl-2 family, is true?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Option D When activated, Bax and Bak form oligomers in the outer membrane of mitochondria, leading to the release of cytochrome c.

Explanation:

The proapoptotic genes are involved in the process of apoptosis. The antiapoptotic gene prevents apoptosis that is cell death. The proapoptotic genes are bax, bak, bad and bid. The bcl family genes are antiapoptotic genes. The process involved activation of apoptosis inside the cell is called intrinsic pathway of apoptosis.

The activation proapoptotic genes, Bax and Bak form oligomers in the mitochondria outer membrane. These pores in the mitochondrial membrane allows the release of cytochrome-c that further attaches with Apaf-1. This leads to activation of caspase 9 that further activates caspase 3, thus inducing apoptosis.

identify the subcellular structure of the neuron that forms the basis for the transmission of nerve impulses. (2 points) describ
melisa1 [442]

The subcellular structures of neuron that forms the basis for transmission of nerve impulses are the synaptic vesicles.

What are the steps in impulse transmission between neurons?

  • The action potential or nerve impulse reaches the <u>axon</u> of neuron and depolarises the membrane.
  • Voltage gated Calcium channels open .
  • Arrival of action potential causes the synaptic vesicle to attach to presynaptic membrane.
  • Calcium influx triggers release of neurotransmitter.
  • This neurotransmitters bind to postsynaptic membrane and new impulses are created.

Synaptic vesicle under resting condition:

  1. The neurotransmitter molecules are stored in synaptic vesicles.
  2. If the neurotransmitter leak from the vesicles, they are destroyed by enzymes.
  3. During resting condition, they are placed randomly.
  4. When an impulse reaches the axon, vesicles are arranged in the presynaptic membrane.

Thus from the above we can conclude that, synaptic vesicles are the subcellular structures in transmission of nerve impulses and , under resting condition they are placed randomly.
