Answer:
Reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
Explanation:
The spinal cord is part of the central nervous system and is made up of neurons that go along it (from the end of the brain stem almost to the bottom of the spine).
The spinal cord receives incoming messages from the peripheral nervous system (including the sensory neurons) and pass on messages from the brain to efferent neurons (motor neurons at muscles).
The spinal cord contributes to learning as it passes on the info received from sensory neurons (that there is an obstacle in the path) to the brain and passes on the response from the brain to the muscles (to lift the foot up higher).
The spinal cord is essential for integration as it passes on sensory information to the brain to determine motor output.
Reflexes are when sensory information is quickly sent straight to motor neurons to move. It does not need to go to the brain (hence does not need to go to the spinal cord) for the reaction as it would be too slow. This is seen when someone who is paraplegic (paralysed at lower torso) can still move their leg in response to the doctor tapping their knee even when they cannot forcibly move their legs.
Therefore reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
Answer:
An intermediate is a species which appears in the mechanism of a reaction, but not in the overall balanced equation. Examples: Amphibian/land vertebrate (Pederpes)- Intermediate form between primary aquatic Upper Devonian amphibians and early tetrapods. Lizard/snake (Pachyrhachis)—Intermediate form of snakes and an extinct lizard-like reptile. It was a primitive snake with limbs.
Explanation:
The mutation was most likely the result of a change in the ability of the DNA replication.
<h3>How mutation occur?</h3>
Mutations result either from errors that occurs in DNA replication or caused by the mutagens, such as chemicals and radiation, which react with DNA and change the structures of individual nucleotides so we can conclude that the mutation was most likely the result of a change in the ability of the DNA replication.
