In case of some vertebrates, nasal epithelium synapse directly with the brain neurons that activate behavioral responses to odors. Reviewing the reason for this type of development in animals favored by natural selection. Introduction: Animal brains are filled with neurons in which analysis of stimulus, that comes from all over the body takes place. Sensory neurons are associated with sensory organs such as skin, or other sensory organs. They carry impulse to the CNS (central nervous system), that is, the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neuron carries impulse or messages from the brain to the muscles hence, known as a motor neuron. Interneurons are present between these two neurons and they relay and carry electric impulses in between the central nervous system.

Alleles at the P locus control seed color. Plants which are pp have white seeds, white flowers and no pigment in vegetative parts. Plants which are P_ have black seeds, purple flowers and may have varying degrees of pigment on stems and leaves. Seed color can be assessed, visually, based on if the seed is white or not white A gene for mold resistance has been reported and we want to determine its inheritance and whether it is linked to P. For the purposes of this exercise, we will assume that resistance is controlled by a single locus M, and M_ plants are resistant and mm plants are susceptible. Resistance can be measured, under greenhouse conditions, 2 weeks after planting, by injecting each seedling with a spore suspension. After two weeks, the seedlings can be rated as resistant or susceptible, based on whether or not tissue is actively sporulating. For this exercise we will use seed and data from the F10 generation of a recombinant inbred population produced using single seed…
