Function of the rod cellsResponsible for vision at low light levels

Biology

Darina [25.2K]2 years ago

Answer:

Rods are responsible for vision at low light levels (scotopic vision). They do not mediate color vision, and have a low spatial acuity. Cones are active at higher light levels (photopic vision), are capable of color vision and are responsible for high spatial acuity. The central fovea is populated exclusively by cones.

Answer:

There are 3 types of cones which we will refer to as the short-wavelength sensitive cones, the middle-wavelength sensitive cones and the long-wavelength sensitive cones or S-cone, M-cones, and L-cones for short.

The light levels where both are operational are called mesopic.

Lateral gene transfer between individuals of a species is called
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Horizontal gene transfer.

Explanation:

Horizontal gene transfer happens when an organism acquires a gene that benefits its development. This individual then can transfer this information to another cell without it being its breed or duplicate. Normal gene transfer happens "vertically" from a parent to a daughter cell, but in this case, duplication is not needed for another organism to acquire the gene.

This is an animation of gel electrophoresis. which of these dna molecules is the shortest?
STALIN [3.7K]
In electrophoresis, the molecules travel between the positive electrode and the negative electrode carried by the current that is generated between them.
As seen in the image below, short fragments, due to their smaller size can travel faster than the longer fragments, so the fragments that have traveled the furthermost are the shortest. (marked E in the image)

Ribonucleic acid (rna) and additional deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) surrounds genes. in a process called methylation, they enhance, silence, or alter genetic instructions.

<h3>What is DNA methylation?</h3>
  • Adding methyl groups to the DNA molecule is a biological process known as DNA methylation. Methylation has the ability to change a DNA region's activity without changing the sequence.
  • When DNA methylation takes place at a gene promoter, it frequently decreases gene transcription.
  • DNA methylation plays an important role in a number of critical processes in mammals, including aging, cancer, X-chromosome inactivation, genomic imprinting, and transposable element repression.
  • The majority of eukaryotic genomes contain DNA methylation, a dynamic epigenetic alteration. It is well recognized to cause a high rate of CpG to TpG mutations.
  • However, nothing is known about the connection between the rate of germline mutation and the dynamics of methylation during germline development.
