Nerves that detect deep pressure are called Pacinian corpuscles.

Pacinian corpuscles are microscopic onion-shaped nerve structures that are situated in the dermis and hypodermis. Pacinian corpuscles detect deep pressure and vibration. This nerve has a myelinated nerve ending in the middle of its structure and the external layer contains flattened cells, a lymph-like fluid and collagen fibers. The structure of pacinian corpuscles provides a fast response and rapid recovery by transmitting fast events. This make them sensitive to pressure and vibration.

Arrange the events in the correct order to describe how the magnetic field forms around Earth.
horsena [70]
The correct sequence of events is : C,D,B,A.
Iron rich magma in the earth's core heats up because of radiation and the pressure exerted by the other layers of the earth. This heat in the crust trigger convection currents in the mantle. The magma closest to the core will be hotter and therefore less dense than other layers. Being less dense the layer will rise towards the crust, eventually becoming cooler and sinking back down in a circular motion.
The continued circular motion creates electric currents which then generates the magnetic field.

Imagine that a mutation in DNA produces a protein with a slightly different amino acid sequence. how would this mutation affect
Lynna [10]

Answer:

It would most likely render the protein nonfunctional or mis-functional.

The mutation could result in three outcomes:

  1. Silent mutation, which changes the codon to the same amino acid. (AAA->AAG, both are lysine). But since the problem specified that it has a "slightly different amino acid sequence," we can assume this doesn't happen.
  2. Nonsense mutation, which changes a codon to a stop codon. This would end the chain of amino acids, making the protein potentially nonfunctional.
  3. Missense mutation, which changes a codon to another completely different codon. This can be harmful, as in sickle-cell disease, where just one amino acid, glutamic acid, is changed to valine.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Simple clothing, living in farming communities and using horse- driven vehicles best describes Amish culture.

Explanation:

The simple clothing concept of Amish culture shows their modesty. The women wear long and simple dresses that goes all the way down to their knees and they also cover their hair. They believe wearing simple dress is a way of keeping their hearts pure.

Amish people use buggy or horse driven vehicles and not cars because they believe that the innovation in technology has the potential to bring assimilation into the surrounding society.

They mostly live in farming communities which are located in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Central American and even in Canada.
