Many of the phenotypes of DiGeorge syndrome have been traced back to one of the genes that is in the deleted region, TBX1. Some

of the evidence for the important role of TBX1 in DiGeorge syndrome came from individuals who have some of the symptoms of DiGeorge syndrome without having the typical deletion. Closer examination showed that some of these individuals had SNV in the TBX1 gene. Which of the following SNVS would be most likely to create a similar phenotype to the deletion?
A. A variant in the promoter region of TBX1 that increases its expression
B. A variant in the intronic region of TBX1 that does not affect splicing. X
C. A nonsense variant near the 5' end of the TBX1 gene.
D. A silent variant near the 5' end of the TBX1 gene.

1. Which cells of the pancreas are the endocrine cells? How were you able to differentiate these cells when viewing the slide? D
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Endocrine cells in the pancreas are referred to as Islets of Langerhan. There are two major types; Beta cell that produce insulin and alpha cells that produce glucagon.

They are identified when viewed under slides based on their colour reactions with histological dyes. Tinctorial techniques that can be used to identify them under microscope includes; Mallory-Heidenhain azan trichrome, chromium hematoxylin and phloxine, aldehyde fuchsin, and silver impregnation methods.

Islets of Langerhan cells make up minority of the cell. Majority of them are for exocrine functions.

What type of conduction takes place in unmyelinated axons? What type of conduction takes place in unmyelinated axons? Continuous
Volgvan

Continuous conduction takes place in unmyelinated axon.

Explanation:

Based on the presence and absence of myelin sheath, the neurons had been classified as myelinated and non-myelinated neurons respectively.

In myelinated neurons the transmission of impulse takes place only at the non myelinated region called nodes of Ranvier. Due to this, the conduction in Myelinated neuron is saltatory.

The conduction in non-myelinated neuron takes place throughout the length of axon and it is continuous.

Saltatory conduction is faster than continuous conduction.
