Answer:

Replication proceeds in both directions from a single origin of replication.

Explanation:

The origin of replication is the DNA sequence where the process of DNA replication begins. Prokaryotes such as <em>E. coli</em>, mostly have smaller genome sizes as compared to the eukaryotes and have a single origin of replication. The DNA helicases serve to unwind the DNA at the origin of replication and create replication forks.

The origin of replication is an AT-rich sequence where DNA is easily denatured to produce single strand bubbles or the replication loops. Both the separated DNA strands are replicated simultaneously. The replication is bidirectional which means that both ends of the separated DNA loop have active replication forks. The process of DNA replication continues until both the replication forks meet to replicate the complete DNA.

Which of the following are NOT functions of the spinal cord?
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.

Explanation:

The spinal cord is part of the central nervous system and is made up of neurons that go along it (from the end of the brain stem almost to the bottom of the spine).

The spinal cord receives incoming messages from the peripheral nervous system (including the sensory neurons) and pass on messages from the brain to efferent neurons (motor neurons at muscles).

The spinal cord contributes to learning as it passes on the info received from sensory neurons (that there is an obstacle in the path) to the brain and passes on the response from the brain to the muscles (to lift the foot up higher).

The spinal cord is essential for integration as it passes on sensory information  to the brain to determine motor output.

Reflexes are when sensory information is quickly sent straight to motor neurons to move. It does not need to go to the brain (hence does not need to go to the spinal cord) for the reaction as it would be too slow. This is seen when someone who is paraplegic (paralysed at lower torso) can still move their leg in response to the doctor tapping their knee even when they cannot forcibly move their legs.

Therefore reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
