Dinoflagellate is a type of neurotoxin which is found in the red-tide algae.
The answer is:
d. people can get paralytic shellfish poisoning during dinoflagellate blooms
Dinoflagellate algal blooms, during red-tide, release strong neurotoxins that can be ingested by shellfish and passed on to humans who eat the infected shellfish. The most significant public health problem that has been known to cause this harmful algae poisoning is: Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning (ASP).
Answer:
1. first part Gene expression is the process by which the instructions in our DNA are converted into a functional product, such as a protein. When the information stored in our DNA? is converted into instructions for making proteins or other molecules, it is called gene expression. second part Double-stranded DNA consists of two polynucleotides that are arranged such that the nitrogenous bases within one polynucleotide are attached to the nitrogenous bases within another polynucleotide by way of special chemical bonds called hydrogen bonds.
2. Gene regulation is an important part of normal development. Genes are turned on and off in different patterns during development to make a brain cell look and act different from a liver cell or a muscle cell, for example. Gene regulation also allows cells to react quickly to changes in their environments.
3. Non-coding DNA sequences do not code for amino acids. Most non-coding DNA lies between genes on the chromosome and has no known function. Other non-coding DNA, called introns, is found within genes. Some non-coding DNA plays a role in the regulation of gene expression.
Sensation
detection of physical energy by sense organs, which then send info to the brain
- Detection of stimuli by sense organs
- how info gets to our brain = detecting stimuli
- allows us to pick up the signals in our environment
- ex. vision- going through eye to visual cortex and smell - going through nose.
