Before classifying insects into different orders, review the larger classifications for insects:
sukhopar [10]

For an organism to be classified in the animal kingdom it is necessary for that organism to be eukaryotic and multicellular. In addition, he must not be able to produce his own food (he must be heterotrophic), and must eat by eating food taken from the environment.

To be classified in the dilo arthropoda, the organism must have an external skeleton, a segmented body and articulated legs.

To be classified in the insect class, the organism must have a separate body in the head, chest and abdomen, have two antennae, two pairs of wings and three pairs of legs.

Which synapse(s) are specifically responsible for the sensitization of the withdrawal response?
qaws [65]

The correct option is (e) sensory neuron to motor neuron, responsible for the sensitization of the withdrawal response.

The central nervous system receives the excitation from a sensory neuron that has been stimulated by its nociceptors. Notably, these fibres deliver excitement to the sensory neuron's cell body, which is located in the spinal cord's dorsal root ganglia. The sensory neuron in the dorsal root ganglion transmits excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) to motor neurons and interneurons after receiving the action potential from these fibres.

By releasing neurotransmitters into the central nervous system, the sensory neuron does this. Excited somatic motor neurons contract and depolarize the targeted muscles to complete the withdrawal reflex. The motor neuron, which leaves the spinal cord and enters the peripheral nervous system, is where this depolarization travels.

Therefore, sensory neuron to motor neuron is responsible for the sensitization of the withdrawal response.

Which modification is crucial in preparing an mRNA strand for proper translation? removal of introns and the splicing together o
yarga [219]
Removal of introns and the splicing together of exons.

Introns are regions of the DNA code that do not code for amino acids; therefore, they need to be removed before the mRNA strand is translated. Exons are the parts of the strand that do code for proteins, so they need to be pieced together once the introns are removed.
