Answer:

Thioredoxin

Explanation:

Ribonucleotides serve as precursors for synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides and the reaction is catalyzed by enzyme ribonucleotide reductase. The reduction of a ribonucleotide into deoxyribonucleotide requires a pair of hydrogen atoms.

These hydrogen atoms are supplied from NADPH via ubiquitous protein thioredoxin. The oxidized form of thioredoxin is reduced back in a reaction catalyzed by thioredoxin reductase.

timama [110]

Answer:

The suprachiasmatic nuclei enable the nervous system to respond to daily light/dark alterations through their stimulation of melatonin.

Explanation:

Melatonin is a hormone produced naturally by the body. Its function is to regulate the body's circadian cycle. This hormone is stimulated and begins to act by changing between a light environment and a dark environment. This stimulation interacts with the suprachiasmatic nuclei making the nervous system understand this change and luminosity of the environment and respond to the action of melatonin.
