There are two systems in the human body that are responsible for the coordination between the functions of different systems to achieve the unity of the living organism's body. These two systems are the nervous system and the endocrine system. The action of the nervous system is fast and takes a short time, while the action of the endocrine system is slow and takes a long time.
The functional unit of the nervous system is the nerve cell or the neuron. The neuron consists of a cell body and the axon. The cell body starts with the dendrites that receive the messages or the impulses from other neurons or from different sense organs or receptors. These impulses are then transmitted through the cell body. The cell body contains a nucleus and different organelles which help the nerve cell to perform its functions. The nerve impulse is then transmitted to the axon.
The axon is an extension from the cell body. There are some cells called Schwan cells that secrete a myelin sheath to insulate the axon from the surrounding medium. The insulated axons have more ability to conduct the impulses than non-insulated axons. The axon ends with the terminal arborizations. The terminal arborizations of a nerve cell connect to the dendrites of the next cell or to the afferent organ. The gaps between the dendrites and the terminal arborizations are called the synapses.
The nerve impulse is an electrochemical phenomenon i.e. an electrical phenomenon with a chemical nature. The membrane of the axon acts as a barrier between an outside positively charged medium and an inside negatively charged medium. This makes a potential difference of -70mV. This state is called the resting potential. When the membrane is subjected to a stimulus, the positive charges enter to inside and the negative charges exit to the outside. The potential difference now becomes +40mV. This state is called the depolarization state. The point of stimulation acts as a new stimulus for the next point and so on. The membrane sooner gains its permeability again and the positive charges return to the outside and the negative charges to inside. This state is called repolarization.
The nerve impulse reaches the synapse. There are some neurotransmitters that are excited by the nerve impulse coming and carry the message across the membrane. Some receptors receive theses neurotransmitters on the dendrites of the next neuron. These receptors act as a stimulus for the new cell.

I only
II only
III only
I, II, and III
The correct answer is "I, II, and III".
Antibiotics are of different spectrums of activity depending on the number of pathogens they can kill. They are different reasons for this differences in antibiotic specificity:
I. Antibiotics interrupt processes found in some but not all pathogen cells. For instance, some antibiotics are directed to cell walls that not all bacteria posses.
II. Some pathogens have no metabolic processes to interrupt. The antibiotics that are directed to metabolic reactions of bacteria are not effective in treating viruses because they do not perform this metabolic reactions.
III. Some pathogens have developed genetic resistance to specific antibiotics. Bacteria have a remarkable genetic plasticity having plasmids that can be easily transmitted among them, which give them antibiotic resistance.
Answer:
The process is called reabsorption.
The substances that are returned are glucose, amino acids, water and salt. Hope this helped
