<span>In response to harmful stimulus, nociceptors initiate neural impulses leading to sensation of pain. Nociceptors are receptors located at the end of a sensory neuron's axon. They respond to potentially damaging things by sending a signal to the spinal cord and brain that lets it know that there is a possible thread. If the brain believes the threat is real it will create a painful sensation at the body part in danger to alert the body and save itself from the threat.</span>

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Brachydactyly and Huntington are phenotypic diseases that develop when a person has one or two dominant alleles for these traits.

John's father has the Huntington disease, but not brachydactyly so his genotype is Hh/bb.

John's mother is a healthy women with brachydactyly, so her's genotype is probably hh/BB or hh/Bb.

Figure 1 represents a segment of DNA. Radiation can damage the nucleotides in a DNA molecule. To repair some types of damage, a
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. However, what is described in this question is a method of DNA damage repair mechanism. The method described is called base excision repair. Generally, glycosylases play important roles in base excision repair (as they detect and remove these damaged bases).

One thing that can be considered while identifying the bond to be broken is the codon that will be formed after the removal of base. If this codon (a three base sequence) will still produce the same protein as when a normal cytosine was present.

NOTE: During this base excision repair, a glycosylase will detect and remove the damaged cytosine. Once removed, the remaining nucleotide backbone (of the removed cytosine) is also removed and the gap is filled and sealed by other enzymes in this repair mechanism.
