Answer:

Soap solution functions to dissolve the cell membranes, alcohol is used to precipitate DNA, and Gatorade is a isotonic solution.

Explanation:

In the DNA extraction protocols, the cell membranes that are formed by lipidic bilayers can be dissolved by using detergent solutions that are functionally analog to soap solution, shampoo, etc. On the other hand, alcohol enables to precipitate DNA (because DNA is not soluble in alcohol), while proteins and other cellular components remain in the extraction solution. Finally, Gatorade is a isotonic solution that may be used to prevent the cells from lysing.

alexdok [17]

Answer: a. cervical enlargement.

Explanation:

Cervical enlargement corresponds to the enlargement of the spinal cord. The spinal cord is the origin of the spinal nerves that contribute to an important task of supplying blood to the upper limbs.  

The cervical enlargement results in an increase in the volume of the motor cells in the ventral part inside the grey matter. The motor neurons which are sited posteriorly supply to the upper limbs. Those which supply to the distal muscles are situated further posteriorly.
