Answer:
The given statement is false.
A neuron is the basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system. It helps in transmitting information from one neuron to another neuron, gland, or muscle cell.
The conduction of nerve impulse is electrochemical in nature. It transmits the impulse electrically through the axon the nerve cells and chemically through synapses (gap between two nerves cells).
The axon terminals of pre-synaptic nerve cell release chemical messengers (also called neurotransmitters) in the synaptic cleft. These messengers then bind to the receptors present on the post-synaptic nerve cell and regenerate the nerve impulse.
Smaller cube (1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm)
<span>The surface area of one side = 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>There are 6 sides, total SA = 6 X 1 <span>cm2</span> = 6 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>Volume = 1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 cubic cm (1 <span>cm3</span>)</span>
<span>Surface to Volume Ratio = 6 <span>cm2</span>/1 <span>cm3</span> = 6 <span>cm2/cm3</span></span>
Larger cube (6 cm X 6 cm X 6 cm)
<span>The surface area of one side = 6 cm X 6 cm = 36 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>There are 6 sides, the total SA = 6 X 36 <span>cm2</span> = 216 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>Volume = 6 cm X 6 cm X 6 cm = 216 <span>cm3</span></span>
<span>Surface to Volume Ratio = 216 <span>cm2</span>/216 <span>cm3</span> = 1 <span>cm2/cm3</span></span>

Answer:
The circulatory system consists of the heart, the arteries, veins, and capillaries.
Explanation:
The correct answer is: a. A site in DNA that recruits the RNA Polymerase
Promoters are regions of DNA molecule located near the transcription start codons of genes, usually upstream on the DNA with the function to initiate DNA transcription. Promoters contain specific DNA sequences (e.g. TATA boxes) that are binding sites for the enzyme RNA polymerase and transcription factors that recruit RNA polymerase. Transcription factors can regulate gene expression and act as activators or repressors depending on sequences that attach to specific promoters.
