Biology Questions

Most bacteria divide by binary fission, a form of cell division in which DNA replication and segregation occur simultaneously. This process involves active partitioning of the single bacterial chromosome and positioning of the site of septation.

Bacteria reproduce by binary fission. In this process the bacterium, which is a single cell, divides into two identical daughter cells.

Binary fission begins when the DNA of the bacterium divides into two replicates. The bacterial cell then elongates and splits into two daughter cells each with identical DNA to the parent cell. Each daughter cell is a clone of the parent cell.

Among the given options, the correct statement about immunodeficiency is "The causative agent in acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a virus that recognizes CD4 proteins".

The basic unit of the nervous system is the Neurons.

The neuron is a single nerve cell, and you have billions of them.

There are three basic types of neurons::

1. Association,

2. Afferent  and

3. Efferent.

The association neurons comprise the central nervous system (CNS) that is the brain and spinal cord.

The afferent neurons are also known as the sensory neurons, they bring the stimuli from the sensors (e.g., skin, eyes, ears) to the CNS.

The efferent neurons are also known as motor neurons, they bring the responses from the brain to the muscles and the glands.

Visceral muscle is another name for Smooth muscle.

Tetrad is a homologous chromosome pair in the given options. A homologous chromosome pair is a pair of chromosomes one from father and one from mother that has same gene sequence after the process of meiosis.
