Grace [21]

Answer;

-Association areas

The association areas of the cerebral cortex are not involved in primary motor or sensory functions; rather, they are involved in learning, remembering, thinking, and speaking.

Explanation;

-The cerebral cortex is divided into sensory, motor and association areas. Sensory areas receive and interpret impulses from sensory receptors , motor areas control movement of muscles (initiate impulses to skeletal muscles). Association areas are involved with more complex functions such as learning, decision making and complex movements such as writing.

-Association cortex is the cerebral cortex outside the primary areas, The majority of the cortex is composed of this area. It is essential for mental functions that are more complex than detecting basic dimensions of sensory stimulation.

What happens to water molecules during the boiling process

katrin [286]

As a liquid is heated, its molecules absorb heat and move faster. When the liquid starts to boil, bubbles of vapor form within the liquid and rise to the surface. The temperature that causes this to happen is known as the boiling point of a liquid. Which answer choice BEST summarizes the paragraph?

Which process is used to transport molecules into the cell that are too large to move through the membrane?

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Other molecules such as proteins, starch and sugar are simply too large to diffuse across the membrane. Sometimes, some of these large molecules are transported across the cell membranes by carrier proteins; this does not require energy and as a result is a form of passive transpor

A segment of a DNA molecule has the base sequence ATGAAC. Write a shorthand structure for this segment and for its complementary

Zanzabum

Answer: See attached picture.

Explanation:

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the name for the molecule that contains the genetic information in all living things. This molecule consists of two strands that wind around each other to form a double helix structure.

The basic unit of nucleic acids are called nucleotides, which are organic molecules formed by the covalent bonding of a nucleoside (a pentose which is a type of sugar and a nitrogenous base) and a phosphate group. So each nucleotide is made up of a pentose sugar called deoxyribose, a nitrogenous base which can be adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) or guanine (G) and a phosphate group.

<u>What distinguishes one polynucleotide from another is the nitrogenous base</u>, and thus the sequence of DNA is specified by naming only the sequence of its bases. The sequential arrangement of these four bases along the chain is what encodes the genetic information, following the following criterion of complementarity: A-T and G-C. So the sequence of these bases along the chain is what encodes the instructions for forming proteins and RNA molecules. In living organisms, DNA occurs as a double strand of nucleotides, in which the two strands are linked together by connections called hydrogen bridges.

The chemical convention of naming the carbon atoms in the pentose nucleotide pentose numerically confers the names 5' end and 3' end ("five prime end" and "three prime end" respectively). The 5'-end designates the end of a DNA strand that coincides with the phosphate group of the fifth carbon of the respective terminal deoxyribose. A phosphate group attached to the 5'-end allows the ligation of two nucleotides; for example, the covalent bonding of the 5'-phosphate group to the 3'-hydroxyl group of another nucleotide, to form a phosphodiester bond.
