The cell body of a neuron: Question 2 options: 1) contains the vesicles. 2) is the long, fluid-filled tube that carries a neuron's message to other body areas. 3) genetically processes the signal because the nucleus contains the DNA. 4) receives information directly from other neurons or from sensory receptor cells.

Darrel conducted an experiment with the following procedure: fill two cups with ice water. place an uninflated balloon snuggly onto your left index finger. blow a little air into an identical balloon, and place it onto your right index finger. place both fingers into the cups of ice water. darrel noticed that his right finger felt warmer in the ice water than did his left finger. which of the following does the experiment show? a. air is a good radiator of heat. b. air is a good insulator of heat. c. air is a good conductor of heat. d. air is a good convector of heat.

What evidence supports the law of conservation of energy? a) mechanical energy is converted to chemical energy during photosynthesis. b) oxygen is made from the breakdown of carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. c)energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and becomes chemical energy during photosynthesis. d)the sun gives off light energy that is absorbed by plants.

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?
