Afferent fibers from the periphery that carry nociceptive information input their pain signals into the of the spinal cord. A. medulla. B. central brainstem. C. dorsal horn cells of the spinal cord. D. ventral horn cells of the spinal cord.

C. dorsal horn cells of the spinal cord

Explanation:

Afferent fibers from the periphery that carry nociceptive information input their pain signals into the dorsal horn cells of spinal cord and then this information is transferred to thalamus via spinothalamic tract and finally to the cortex by thalamo cortical projections.

hydroxyl -oh

alcohols, always polar, can form hydrogen bonds with h2o molecules

carboxyl -cooh  

cargoxylic acids, has acidic properties which is a source of hydrogen ions, found in cells in ionized for with a charge of oh-1

carbonyl > co

ketone if within skeleton, aldehyde if group is at the end of skeleton, k & a may be structural isomers, it determines 2 sugars (ketose & aldose)

amino -nh2

amines, acts as a base, it can pick up h+ ions from surrounding solution, ionized with charge of 1+

methyl ch2

addition to rna/dna affects and gene expression

phosphate -opo3 ²⁻

organic phosphates, contributes to negative charge to, molecule that it is a part of, and potential to react with h20

sulfhydryl -sh

thiols, cross-linking stabilize the protein, and it is structure
