When arrector pili muscles contract (during cold or fright), the slanted hair follicle is pulled upright, dimpling the skin surface with goosebumps.

The arrector pili muscles attaches to the base of the hair and also to the dermal tissue from both the ends. When goosebumps appear, this action takes place due to the contract of these muscles. These muscles are triggered by the norepinephrine.

Hair follicle is a tube-like pore surrounding the root of the hair. These follicles are responsible for the hair growth. Various hormones, neuropeptides and immune cells are involved in this process of hair growth.

The muscles that contract (during cold or fright), the slanted hair follicle is pulled upright, dimpling the skin surface with goosebumps are called arrector pili muscle.

The arrector pili muscle are tiny muscle that attaches to the base of the hair follicle at one end  and to the dermal tissue on the other end. When the body feels cold or fright the body generate heat and the arrector pili muscle contract all at once, that causes goosebumps on the skin.

The arrector pili muscle acts as the thermoregulator. Straight stand hair increases air trapping, so that the heat loss from the body decreases. The arrector pili muscle are mediated by the sympathetic nervous system.

9. What is always true of a binary compound? It has a double bond. It has two elements. It has covalent bonds. It has two atoms.
juin [17]

Answer

Correct answer is :It has two elements

Explanation

A binary compound is a compound that is made up of two of the elements in the periodic table. Some examples of binary compounds are NaCl and N_2O. This means that a binary compound can have more than 2 atoms as in the case of hydrogen oxide. Some binary compounds are ionic as in the case of sodium chloride.This shows that they do not necessarily have to have covalent bonds. This also rules out the possibility that they may always have double bonds as ionic compounds are bound together by ionic bonds. The only thing that will always be true of binary compounds is that they will always have 2 elements.

The method by which lymph is pushed through the lymph vessels is via
34kurt
Contraction of skeletal muscles against the lymph vessel

The lymph usually move in the body in its own vessel and travels from the interstitial spaces to the subclavian veins at the neck area. The lymphatic system does not have a heart to pump and move the fluid. The movement of lymph depends on the movements of the muscles and joints in the body. In this mechanism upward movement is possible. It will move towards the neck where it will be filtered and will go again into the subclavian veins.
