Answer:

B. olfactory information is not integrated in the thalamus prior to processing in the cortex, and the two systems are primarily processed in opposite hemispheres.

Explanation:

The thalamus is the main source of sensory information to the primary sensory cortex except for the sense of smell. The olfactory information from the sensory neurons needs to pass through the thalamus in order to reach the primary sensory cortex. Moreover, different thalamic nuclei, i.e., different groups of packed neuronal cell bodies that form the thalamus, have been involved in language. A bilateral thalamic activation (with left greater than right thalamic activation), as well as the activation of cortical regions associated with the language, is observed during tasks related to language processing. Language information is processed within the left hemisphere, while the olfactory information is processed in the olfactory bulb which is located on the inferior (bottom) side of the cerebral hemispheres.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a serious condition caused by a recessive allele of a gene on the human x chromosome. the patient
dedylja [7]
Duchenne muyscular dystrophy is caused by a mutation on the X chromosome, so a male gets it from his mother's X, if she is a carrier. The male child gets a Y and no X from his father, so the disease is always transmitted through the X from the mother. If a female gets Duchenne muscular dystrophy she has to have two X chromosomes, one from a carrier mother and another from from an affected father. This is virtually impossible because most males die before childbearing age and there is no way a female child can get an X from a man who does not live long enough to procreate. About eight percent of carrier women do show some muscle weakness, but they do not have the disease.
