Answer:

it depends on what cilia you're referring for

Explanation:

Cilia can be motile or non motile. Motile cilia can be found in the lungs, respiratory tract and middle ear. These cilia have a rhythmic waving or beating motion. They work, for instance, to keep the airways clear of mucus and dirt, allowing us to breathe easily and without irritation. They also help propel sperm.

Cilia can also be found in some peotozoans like ciliates. they used it for locomotion.

The Lac Operon is a set of genes that controls the production of lactase the enzyme that digests
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The lactose present prevents the production of lactase

Explanation:

This question is describing a set of genes in bacteria called LAC OPERON. Lac operon controls the production of lactase, which is the enzyme that digests lactose. However, this gene can be regulated at the transcription level i.e caused to be transcribed or not depending on certain factors.

According to the question, lac operon, which regulates the production of enzymes will be transcribed and subsequently translated i.e. turned on when there is a substrate (lactose) that the produced enzyme will work on. However, when there is no need of the lactase enzyme or there is absence of lactose (substrate), the lac operon gene is turned off.

Note that, the statement that "The presence of lactose prevents the production of lactase" is not correct.

enkephalin-induced depression of single neurons in brain areas with opiate receptors—antagonism by naloxone
kicyunya [14]

Induced depression of single neurons in brain areas with opiate receptors

  • Enkephalin, applied microiontophoretically, depressed spontaneous and glutamate-induced firing of  one neuron in frontal cortex, caudate nucleus, and periaqueductal gray matter, where enkephalin and high concentrations of opiate receptors are met.
  • More than one depressions were blocked by the specific narcotic antagonist naloxone. The results  are durable with a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role for this new brain pentapeptide.
  • Opium derivatives have been in medical use for the last  2000 years, and may be   longer than any other class of drugs
  • . The brain regions which was  involved in these actions have been identified in some instances by local microinjection of pmole quantities of opioids.
