Answer:

2 Major Subdivisions:

Central Nervous System

Peripheral Nervous System

Explanation:

The central nervous system (CNS) regulates the majority of bodily and mental activities. It is divided into two parts: the brain and the spinal cord. The brain is the core of our ideas, the translator of our surroundings, and the source of control over physical action.

The PNS is the nerve that links the CNS to the rest of the body. The peripheral nervous system's principal job is to link the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body and the outside world. The peripheral nervous system sends and receives information to and from the central nervous system. This is done by neurons that convey information from sensory receptors in the eyes, ears, skin, nose, and tongue, as well as stretch receptors and nociceptors in muscles, glands, and other internal organs.

Answer:

Niacin (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is known as important cofactor which help in carrying electrons from one reaction to another reaction in the cellular respiration process.

Cells are able to restore performed compounds which are containing a pyrimidine base precursor vitamin for the synthesis of NAD: nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, and nicotinamide riboside.

These elements are taken up from the diet whos containing vitamin B3. Nicotinamide, and nicotinamide riboside both can be absorbed from the gut. Niacin or vitamin B3 also produced within cells with the help of cellular digestion of NAD+.

Which technique cannot be used to analyze gene expression?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

So the mnemonic that I know is SNOW DROP. Southern=DNA, Northern=RNA, O=O, and Western=Protein. The question asks, "Which technique CANNOT be used to analyze gene expression?" and the answer is Southern because it is a "techniue used to detect a particular sequence in a sample of DNA."

Beriberi is caused by a deficiency of thiamine in the diet.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Thiamine pyrophosphate  (derived from vitamin B1) is a coenzyme required for the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex.

Explanation:

Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis. During aerobic cellular respiration, pyruvate is oxidatively decarboxylated into acetyl CoA which in turn enters the Kreb's cycle. Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate is carried out by enzyme complex pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH). The first step is simple decarboxylation and is catalyzed by pyruvate decarboxylase of the PDH complex.

The enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase and has a tightly bound coenzyme, thiamine pyrophosphate. Thiamine pyrophosphate is derived from vitamin B1. Lack of vitamin B1 in the human diet leads to beriberi that is characterized by an increased concentration of pyruvate in blood urine since oxidative decarboxylation cannot occur due to lack of the coenzyme thiamine pyrophosphate.
