A 52-year-old woman has difficulty initiating voluntary movements. She can clearly state what she intends to do, describe exactl

y how she would do it, and picture herself doing it easily. When she is able to begin the motion, she can complete it smoothly and accurately, but she has difficulty beginning the motion. If the difficulty arises from a defect in one particular area of the nervous system, which area is most likely to be involved

Answer:

Basal Ganglia

Explanation:

The Basal ganglia function is to regulate the voluntary movements or autonomic movement. This is done by receiving and transmission of impulses. Impulses are received for upcoming movement from the cerebral cortex and then process and adjust from where it is convey to the thalamus which then relays this information back to the cortex. The well defined movement instruction is finally sent to the skeletal muscles through the tracts of the pyramidal motor system. It also function in planning and modulation of movement, memory and eye movement.

There are five types of basal ganglia corpus striatum, claustrum, amygdala, substantia nigra and subthalamic sails which all function together.

What are the two types of cholesterol and what do they do?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Bad and good cholesterol.

The bad cholesterol generates low density liproprotein which is dangerous to the body system , hence the name "bad cholesterol". Most heart related diseases are linked to excess of the this cholesterol in the body. while the good cholesterol generates high density liproprotein that helps in discharging bad cholesterol from accumulating in the arteries .

What can be inferred from the fact that there is little diversity in the form of mc1r gene?
Dominik [7]

The fact that there is little diversity in the form of mc1r gene we can inferred that it is an that it is an advantageous trait to protect from extreme sun and lack of diversity is due to the negative selection.

  • The MC1R gene  give order for formation a protein called the melanocortin 1 receptor. This receptor plays very important role in normal pigmentation. The receptor is  found on the surface of melanocytes, these cells secrete a pigment called melanin. Melanin is that the pigment that gives skin, hair, and eyes their colour.
  • Negative selection works to get rid of deleterious alleles from a population in another term that describes this is often “purifying selection.”
  • Positive selection leads to directional selection. Positive selection for a beneficial allele can increase the frequency of neutral variants neighbouring the beneficial allele; such genetic hitchhiking may end in a large area of homozygosity (i.e., loss of diversity during a large area of a chromosome) due to a highly advantageous mutation and is referred to as a selective sweep.
