Advances in the of the brain are linked to children's

Out of the following given choices;

A. parietal lobe; sharper color and peripheral vision

B. occipital lobe; better spatial skills

C. prefrontal cortex; improved attention, reasoning, and cognitive control

D. temporal lobe; eye-hand coordination and pincer grasp.

The answer is C. During maturation in childhood, the prefrontal cortex undergoes major development that is characterized by the growth of dendrites, reduction of synaptic and neuronal density, and an increase in white matter volume. This development is associated with the capacity of the child to perform executive functions (meaning higher-order cognitive control processes).

what statement best describes the difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems?

the sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for intense physical activity and is often referred to as the fight-or-flight response. the parasympathetic nervous system has almost the exact opposite effect and relaxes the body and inhibits or slows many high energy functions.

the dna molecules have a negative charge because of the phosphate groups in their sugar-phosphate backbone, so they start moving through the matrix of the gel towards the positive pole. power is turned on and dna fragments migrate through gel (towards the positive electrode).
