Answer:

1.Structural Divisions of the Nervous System. The nervous system can be divided into two major regions: the central and peripheral nervous systems. The central nervous system (CNS) is the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is everything else.

2.Like the nervous system as a whole, the peripheral nervous system also has two divisions: the sensory division and the motor division. The sensory division of the PNS carries sensory information from the body to the central nervous system.

3.Sensory receptors with corresponding stimuli to which they respond.

Receptor Stimulus

Apmullae of Lorenzini (primarily function as electroreceptors) Electric fields, salinity, and temperature

Baroreceptors Pressure in blood vessels

Chemo receptors Chemical stimuli

Electromagnetic radiation receptors Electromagnetic radiation

Electroreceptors Electrofields

Hydroreceptors Humidity

Infrared receptors Infrared radiation

Magnetoreceptors Magnetic fields

Mechanoreceptors Mechanical stress or strain

Nociceptors Damage or threat of damage to body tissues (leads to pain perception)

Osmoreceptors Osmolarity of fluids

Photoreceptors Visible light

Proprioceptors Sense of position

Thermoreceptors Temperature

Ultraviolet receptors Ultraviolet radiation

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

a. the RNA polymerase undergoes abortive initiation prior to promoter clearance

Explanation:

In eukaryotes the 3' end of the mRNA is polyadenylated to protect the mRNA from degradation.

In eukaryotes, a modified guanine cap is added to the 5' end of the mRNAd to protects the transcript from being broken down.

Most bacterial RNA transcripts do not undergo splicing.

The nucleosome is the basic unit of chromatin repeat in eukaryotes.

Enzymes in your gastrointestinal tract digest your lunch. these chemical reactions are categorized as:________
BigorU [14]

Enzymes in your gastrointestinal tract digest your lunch. these chemical reactions are categorized as catabolism.

<h3>What is catabolism?</h3>

The series of metabolic processes known as catabolism reduces molecules into smaller pieces that are then either oxidized to produce energy or utilised in other anabolic processes. Large compounds are divided into smaller components through catabolism.

<h3>What is a prime illustration of catabolism?</h3>

Catabolism happens as you are breaking down food. For instance, a piece of bread is broken down into simple components your body may absorb, such glucose, through this process (blood sugar).

<h3>What is difference between catabolism and anabolism?</h3>

The series of metabolic processes known as catabolism reduces molecules into smaller pieces that are then either oxidized to produce energy or utilised in other anabolic processes. The process of anabolism produces the molecules the body needs to function. Energy is released during the catabolism process. Energy is needed for anabolic processes.
