Kindly refer the attachment for labelling.

Answer:

A- Receives signal from other neurons

B- Contain the nucleus and cell organelles

C- Protects and insulates the axon

D- Conveys electric signal across a long distance

E- Passes electrical signals to other neurons

Explanation:

A. The "A" part in the image refers to "dendrites" which function to receive signal from other neurons.

B. The "B" part refers to "soma" which contain the nucleus and other cell organelles.

C. The "C" part refers to "Myelin sheath" that protects and insulates the axon.

D. The "D" part refers to "Axon" which is responsible for conveying electric signal across a long distance.

E. The "E" part refers to "Axon terminal" which is responsible for passing or transferring the elecrtic signals to other neurons and dendrites of other neurons receive the signals and the process goes on.

Hence, the match of fucntion with the correct part of neuron is as following:

A- Receives signal from other neurons

B- Contain the nucleus and cell organelles

C- Protects and insulates the axon

D- Conveys electric signal across a long distance

E- Passes electrical signals to other neurons

As air warms from global warming, it will also transfer heat from the air into the water until it equalizes. The industrial revolution made us able to power engines with fossil fuels therfore the exaust or c02 or carbon goes up into the atmosphere because it is a gas and is warm which is a insulator gas so it keeps the sun's heat in and doesn't let it out <span />

Andrej [43]

Answer:

a. biomes

Explanation:

Ecology can be defined as the scientific study of the relationship between living organisms such as plants and animals in relation to their physical and biological environment.

An ecosystem can be defined as the natural living habitats of both living and non-living organisms, in which they interact with one another. Essential services such as plant pollination, water purification, nutrient cycling etc that are being provided by the ecosystem are really very vital, important and useful for the sustenance of life, both for humans and enhances social welfare.

Generally, the different continents on Earth are in a constant motion due to the fact that they're sitted on top of gigantic plates floating on Earth’s mantle.

Furthermore, the Earth’s core generate energy which also creates convection currents in the molten layer of the Earth, thereby, moving the plates.

Over an extremely long periods of time, the movement of these plates create new biomes.

In Ecology, a biome can be defined as a relatively distinct terrestrial region which is made up of animals, micrograms and plants, and it is typically characterized by similar environmental factors such as wind, relative humidity, rainfall, temperature, etc., irrespective (regardless) of where it occurs in the world.

There are five (5) main types of biomes and these are;

I. Forest.

II. Aquatic.

III. Desert.

IV. Grassland.

V. Tundra.

Vadim26 [7]

Let's complete the question by adding the missing piece of information

The mutation results in the breed's distinctive point markings (ears, mask, tail and legs) and lighter body color. Use this information to explain the pattern of the cat's fur pigmentation.

Answer:

The mutation of the TYR gene results in the enzyme tyrosinase to be heat susceptible. Tyrosinase takes part in the production of melanin to give darker fur in colder areas. The areas like the tail, legs, ears, and face do lack as much body heat and so will get darker.

Explanation:

A unique protein (enzyme), known as tyrosinase, is the major workhorse in the development of the melanin. A research team from the University of California, USA, led by L. A. Lyons, discovered that Siamese cats have tyrosinase that went through mutation due to the changes in the DNA helix and is temperature-sensitive as it's activity reduces with a rise in temperature. This explains why cat’s warm parts of the body are coated with white, melanin-lacking hair since Tyrosinase is deactivated in these regions and melanin is not developed – hair is white-colored. On the other hand, in cooler boundary the enzyme is active and the melanin is formed – hair has dark color.

Answer:

Disruptive selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection, also known as diversifying selection, describes changes in population genetics where extreme values for a trait are favored over intermediate values. In this case, the variance of the trait increases and the population is divided into two distinct groups. In this more individuals acquire peripheral character value at both ends of the distribution curve.
