A 2016 experiment by researchers at UC Irvine established a link between autonomic nervous system activity during sleep and memo

ry consolidation. Participants in the study were given Remote Associates Test (a creative word association test) which was followed by the treatment: either a nap or quiet wake time. Following the treatment, a second Remote Associates Test. Individuals who napped showed improved performance on the second test compared to those who did not. The researchers found that heart rate variability and time spent in each sleep stage accounted for 73% of the improvement observed.
Regarding the experiment, which of the following is essential for consolidating the creative word test memories?
A. Brainstem
B. Cervical spinal cord segments
C. Thoracic spinal cord segments
D. Lumbar spinal cord segments

Answer:

A. Brainstem

Explanation:

Looking at the options, the correct one is Brainstem because it is the only one that deals with breathing, heart rate and blood pressure which definitely is linked to autonomic nervous system activity during sleep and the memory consolidation.

In a sample population of people, 36% have the recessive trait of "free" earlobes (q2). What is the frequency of the dominant al
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Explanation

Given that 36% are recessive in traits

100-36 = 64% for dominant traits considering a whole population to be 100%

P=dominant allele

q= recessive allele

P2= dominant genotype

q2= recessive genotype

according to hardyweinberg principle, p+q=1

64/100= 0.64 frequency for dominant traits or genotype, therefore

p2=0.64

then

P=√0.64

p= 0.8

Therefore, dominant allele frequency (p) for the population is 0.8

Electricity is added to recharge a battery. What is added to ADP to form ATP?
White raven [17]

Electricity is added to recharge a battery. A third phosphate group  is added to ADP to form ATP.

ATP or Adenosine triphosphate contains adenine, ribose and 3 phosphate groups.

ADP is converted to ATP by the following reaction:

ADP+Pi+energy⇄ATP

The analogy between battery and ATP can be explained as ATP is higher energy form and ADP is lower energy form like charged and uncharged form of the battery. When the terminal or third phosphate is removed from the ATP it becomes ADP and releases energy like a battery. The additional phosphate group when added to ADP forms the ATP molecule like the energy spent by the batteries are recharged by putting in additional energy. Here the additional energy is provided by the third phosphate group.
