Terminal buttons.

Explanation:

Neurons are longest animal cell that serve as the basic unit of their nervous system.

The neuron is divided into two parts-

Cyton: It is the cell body of the neuron. It has projection extending from the cytoplasm that receive signals called dendrites.

Axon: It is a long process extending from the cyton that carries the impulse from cell body to end of neuron. The axon terminate at knob like structures called terminal button . These release neurotransmitter and are rich in mitochondria.

The information from messenger RNA is used to create polypeptide sequences during the process of _____.​
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Translation

Explanation:

The translation is the process during which the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. The nucleotide sequence of mRNA is complementary to the template DNA strand. According to the sequence of the nucleotides in the mRNA, the amino acids are added in a specific order to make the polypeptide chains. The process occurs on ribosomes. The ribosomes move along the mRNA to read its sequence and the tRNA brings are amino acids to be added to the polypeptide chains.

Cells a and b are the same size and shape, but cell a is metabolically quiet and cell b is actively consuming oxygen. Oxygen wil
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The two cells of the similar shape, and size have different levels of the ongoing metabolic activity. On one hand, the cell a is metabolically quiet, which means that no energy consuming chemical reactions are taking place in this cell. On the other hand, the cell b is actively consuming the surrounding oxygen. In this scenario, the oxygen will more quickly diffuse into the cell b because the diffusion gradient for oxygen in this cell is steeper than in the cell a.

Hence, the blanks can be filled with 'b and the diffusion gradient is steeper' respectively.
