Ryan accidentally drops a very heavy object on his foot. In a matter of just a few seconds, he feels a tremendous amount of pain

. He experienced the pain quickly because neurons rapidly carried the impulse to the brain. Which structure of the neuron is responsible for the quick transmission of a nerve impulse?

The right answer is the Schwann's sheath (or the myelin sheath).

The Schwann sheath is a sheath made up of Schwann cells, which surrounds the axons of the peripheral nerves.

Discovered by the German physiologist Theodor Schwann who gave them his name, Schwann cells, or neurolemmocytes, are peripheral glial cells. With oligodendrocytes, they make myelin sheaths around the axons of neurons, protecting them and increasing the speed of nerve impulses.

Ovarian follicles cells produce estrogen, which is a steroid. What organelle will be present in abundance so that the follicles
zloy xaker [14]

The steroids are produced by the Smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

The cells, which are involved in the secretion of the steroid molecules have an abundant number of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, which is abbrevated as SER.

The cells present in the ovary and the testis have a large number of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The abundant number of smoothe endoplasmic reticulum allow them to produce a large amount of steroid molecule to produce the steroid hormones estrogen and testosterone.

Hence, in this case, the ovarian cells would have a large number of SER.

A unicellular organism that produces glucose through photosynthesis would most likely contain which structure
kap26 [50]
<span>Bacteria are tiny. A typical bacterial cell is just a few micrometres across (a few thousandths of a millimetre). The structure of a bacterial cell is different to an animal or plant cell. For example, they do not have a nucleus but they may have a flagellum. This is a tail-like part of the cell that can spin, moving the cell along.A unicellular organism is a living thing that is just one cell. There are different types of unicellular organism, including: bacteria protozoa unicellular fungi You might be tempted to think that these organisms are very simple, but in fact they can be very complex. They have adaptations that make them very well suited for life in their environment.Protozoa are unicellular organisms that live in water or in damp places. The amoeba is an example of one. Although it is just one cell, it has adaptations that let it behave a bit like an animal: it produces pseudopodia (false feet) that let it move about its pseudopodia can surround food and take it inside the cell contractile vacuoles appear inside the cell, then merge with the surface to remove waste

You may be familiar with fungi from seeing mushrooms and toadstools. Yeast are unicellular fungi. They are used by brewers and wine-makers because they convert sugar into alcohol, and by bakers because they can produce carbon dioxide to make bread to rise. Yeast have a cell wall, like plant cells, but no chloroplasts. This means they have to absorb sugars for their nutrition, rather than being able to make their own food by photosynthesis Yeast can reproduce by producing a bud. The bud grows until it is large enough to split from the parent cell as a new yeast cell.</span>

Answer:

Two

Recessive
