Functional regeneration of axons occurs more frequently in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) than in the CNS because of two main reasons which are-

  • The environment in the central nervous system is not suitable for the regeneration or repair of axons.
  • The axons of the neurons in the CNS cannot upregulate genes for the growth or regeneration of the axons. Whereas the axons in the PNS can upregulate these genes to a much greater extent than the CNS.

<u />

The central nervous system(CNS) and the peripheral nervous system(PNS), are the two branches of the nervous system in the body. The central nervous system consists of the spinal cord and the brain. While the peripheral nervous system consists of the nerves and neurons that arise from the spinal cord and the brain. It is difficult for axons to repair themselves in the central nervous system because these axons are present in and around the main structures that control the entire nervous system.

Darya [45]

Answer:

Because each subject in an experiment has to have equal conditions to ensure the most accurate results. And water temperature is known to impact plant growth. An experiment using different water temperatures is a terribly inaccurate experiment.

qwelly [4]

<span>1.       </span>Cones perceive light in color while rods perceive light in black and white.

<span>2.       </span>Rods can perceive dim light, unlike cones. The rods are located at the edges of the eyes. This is why it easier to perceive an image in the dark through the corner of the eyes.

<span>3.       </span>The discs that compose the cones are usually partially open to the surrounding vitreous fluid while those of the rods are closed.
