Answer:

Auditory nerve

Explanation:

Hair cells form synapses with bipolar neurons whose axons form the auditory nerve. Tips of the outer hair cells are attached directly to the tectorial membrane. When the inner hair cells move they make contact with the overhanging tectorial membrane

Fun fact: Hair and nials are made out of the same things!

Three human disorders−−fragile X syndrome, myotonic dystrophy, and Huntington's disease−−are conceptually linked by a common mod
Fed [463]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''All three are caused by disparate genes, but each gene was found to contain repeats of a unique trinucleotide sequence.''

Explanation:

Four groups of trinucleotide repeats related to DNA expansion have been characterized in the human genome. CGGI GCC, CAGIGTC, CTGIGAC and recently GW CTT sequences. The CGGl GCC sequences are usually located in the noncoding regions of different genes and when expanded they associate with fragile sites on the chromosomes. The CAGIGTC repeats are part of the coding region and are related to different neurodegenerative disorders. You can try to make a classification depending on the unit that is repeated, having on one side a group that are caused by repeats of the CAG trinucleotide (cytosine, adenine, guanine). Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive disorder of motor, cognitive and psychic function. The disease is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, and is caused by the expansion of CAG trinucleotide repeats in exon 1 of the gene called huntingtin (HTT or IT-15). Unstable mutations have also been found in which the repeat unit does not is composed of three nucleotides, if not four, such as type 2 myotonic dystrophy, where the tetranucleotide CCTG repeats. Fragile X Syndrome consists of an abnormal expansion of the cytosine-guanine-guanine trinucleotide (CGG) in the FMR1 gene, which prevents intellectual disability and also influences the formation of connective tissue

What is a negative feedback mechanism? Explain an example.
Semmy [17]

Answer: A negative feedback mechanism is a regulatory mechanism in which a stimulus causes an opposite output in order to maintain an ideal level of whatever is being regulated. Example: osmoregulation. A positive feedback mechanism is a process in which the end products of an action cause more of that action to occur in a feedback loop. Example: childbirth.

What is the main reason countries should work together to reduce air pollution
schepotkina [342]

Answer: To reduce respiratory diseases and ocean acidification

Explanation:

The main reason why countries should work together to manage air pollution is due to the harmful effects on human beings and animals.

Air pollution makes the air polluted which is when inhaled by human being and aquatic animals.

There are many harmful effects of air pollution because animals and plants inhale carbon dioxide either present in air or gets dissolved in ocean water.

So, air pollution should be reduced.
