During hibernation, animals enter dormancy during winter months. Their body temperature drops, heart rate slows, and metabolism slows. Estivation occurs during hot or dry periods.

Pain signals often have two components: an acute sensation of "first pain" which is felt almost immediately after an injury, and
o-na [289]

Answer:

This suggests that neurons that send the signals that we perceive as first pain Myelinated Tpye A-delta___, and neurons that send the signals that we perceive as second pain Unmyelinated-Type C.___.

Explanation:

Physiologically, primary afferent neurons that innervated the the touch, pain, temperature,and pressure receptors in the effectors  to input sensory signals to the spinal cord and the brain  are categorized based on their diameter, sizes, and nature of  myelination. Based on this;

<u>A-alpha has the largest diameter, myelinated, and sensitive to sensation from the muscle cells</u>

<u>A-beta are next in diameter, myelinated and sensitive to sensation  of touch.</u>

A-delta followed in diameter, and  size. They are mylinated, and sensitive to pain and temperature.

<u>C-fibres are least in diameter, they are unmyelinated, but sensitive to pain, touch and temperature.</u>

<u />

<u>Therefore, if the speed of conduction,of action  potential in a neuron depends on the diameter(thickness) and myelination of the axon(saltatory conduction)</u> :

''then, acute sensation/ first pain should be transmitted by the A-delta fibre. While the the slower/second pain should be transmitted by the slower unmyelinated - C-fibres''.

You have identified a mutation in a gene that seems to decrease transcription of another gene 2000 bp away from the mutation sit
Reil [10]

Answer:

Enhancer sequence.

Explanation:

Enhancers may be defined as the transcription factors that are used to enhance or increase the activity of the gene. Enhancers bind with the transcription factors to regulate and increase its expression.

The mutation in the enhancers decrease the transcription of  of the other gene. These sequences lies far away from the transcription site but still known to increase the rate of transcription. Hence, the mutation has been done in the enhancer sequences.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
