Part of the brain oversees the postural muscles and control balance and equilibrium?

Brrunno [24]1 year ago

In brain, cerebellum controls the postural muscles and balance the equilibrium. By operating on the cerebral cortex via the thalamocortical projection and on the brainstem, the cerebellum regulates the cognitive and automatic processes of posture-gait regulation.

Both real-time sensory feedback via the spinocerebellar tract to the cerebellum and feedforward information from the cerebral cortex via the cortico-ponto-cerebellar pathway may play significant roles in these processes.

The cerebellum's ability to govern posture is mostly dependent on sensory afferents. Along with the vestibular nuclei, the floccules and vermis of the cerebellum also receive signals from the labyrinth via the vestibular nerve. Spinocerebellar pathways convey peripheral sensory data and a copy of the spinal cord's output to the fastigial nuclei (FN).

Why might introduction of exotic species disrupt and ecosystem?
Tanya [424]
Exotic species do not have a niche in the ecosystem that they are in. Therefore they take up resources that native species rely on to survive. Exotic species also have no natural predators in that environment causing them to flourish and multiply quickly.

Describe one way that freshwater animals can compensate for ions lost during excretion of excess water
Anon25 [30]

They replace the lost ions by active uptake through active transport of ions from the surrounding waters.  This is exhibited in freshwater fishes that actively take in these ions through the gills.  Most of the ions involved in osmoregulation in freshwater are those of Na+ and Cl-.

This is a volume of space that is empty of matter. Example: Sound cannot travel here.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Vacuum

Explanation:

A vacuum is usually defined as a space in which there is an absence of matter. It can also be said that there is an extremely low amount of pressure due to which the particles present in it are not affected by any type of process that occurs in space. The value of pressure is lower than the value of normal atmospheric pressure.

For example, sound cannot travel in space because there is no medium such as water and air through which the sound waves can propagate.
