Compared to unmyelinated axons, myelinated axons?

Biology
1 answer:
Furkat [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A. Conduct impulses faster.

Explanation:

Myelinated axons are called that way due to the myelin sheath that surrounds them. Myelin has an insulation property so electrical impulses cannot travel through it, except on certain sites called Nodes of Ranvier. In order for electrical impulses to be conducted on myelinated axons they must "jump" from one Node of Ranvier to the next, and thus conduction is faster. This is called saltatory conduction.

Specialized proteins called cell cycle regulators, such as p53 and p21, regulate the progression of the cell cycle from one phas
fredd [130]

Answer:

The change in the genes p53 and p21 results in deficits in checkpoints that result in cancer of various types. The G2-HM checkpoint deficits can be exploited in the development of targeted treatment.

A mutation in the above normal functioning of p53 can lead to the progression of damaged cells to mitosis which leads to cancer. So therapeutics which target any of these checkpoints can lead to developing a treatment for cancer.

Using what you know about the term mosaic, write a paragraph describing another biological mosaic
alexdok [17]

The fluid-mosaic model describes the plasma membrane of animal cells. The plasma membrane that surrounds these cells has two layers (a bilayer) of phospholipids (fats with phosphorous attached), which at body temperature are like vegetable oil (fluid). And the structure of the plasma membrane supports the old saying, “Oil and water don’t mix.”

Each phospholipid molecule has a head that is attracted to water (hydrophilic: hydro = water; philic = loving) and a tail that repels water (hydrophobic: hydro = water; phobic = fearing). Both layers of the plasma membrane have the hydrophilic heads pointing toward the outside; the hydrophobic tails form the inside of the bilayer.

Because cells reside in a watery solution (extracellular fluid), and they contain a watery solution inside of them (cytoplasm), the plasma membrane forms a circle around each cell so that the water-loving heads are in contact with the fluid, and the water-fearing tails are protected on the inside.
