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.

Que tipo de aislamiento reproductivo exhibe la mula?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

<em>Aislamiento postreproductivo: Esterilidad del híbrido</em>

Explanation:

El concepto biológico de <u>especie</u>, en su definición, destaca que los ejemplares de una especie no pueden entrecruzarse con ejemplares de otra especie distinta, o bien, en caso de hacerlo, no hay éxito reproductivo.

Existen distintos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo, que son barreras que inhiben o interrumpen el flujo génico entre especies distintas. Se trata de caracteres biológicos propios de cada especie que previenen la reproducción con otras especies.

Estos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo pueden ser precigóticos o postcigóticos.  

  1. Pre-copulatorios o pre-cigóticos:
  • Ecológico o por aislamiento de hábitat;
  • Estacional o temporal;
  • Sexual o etológico;
  • Mecánico;
  • Por incompatibilidad de gametas.  

   2. Post-copulatorios o cigóticos:

  • Inviabilidad del híbrido;
  • Esterilidad del híbrido;
  • Híbrido con viabilidad o fertilidad disminuido;
  • Interacciones citoplasmáticas.

La mula es producto de la cruza entre dos especies distintas: una yegua (<em>Equus ferus caballus</em>) y un burro (<em>Equus africanus asinus</em>). Es un ejemplo de la accion de mecanismo poscigótico, en el cual se forma un híbrido viable esteril. Este ejemplar puede nacer crecer y sobrevivir, pero que no pueden producir gametas funcionales, por lo cual no pueden reproducirse.
