The three subcortical nuclei comprise the basal nuclei: the corpus striatum, subthalamic nucleus, and the substantia nigra.

What is the composition of the Basal nuclei?

  • A group of subcortical nuclei located deep within the cerebral hemispheres is known as the basal ganglia.
  • The corpus striatum, which has a volume of roughly 10 cm, is the most significant subcortical brain region in the basal ganglia.
  • It is a diverse structure that receives afferents from a number of cortical and subcortical areas and sends afferents to a number of basal ganglia nuclei.
  • The biggest portion of the subthalamus is made up of a lens-shaped cell cluster called the subthalamic nucleus.
  • Substantia Nigra is a long nucleus in the midbrain that is functionally part of the basal nuclei due to its reciprocal connections.
  • It is made up of two parts: pars compacta and pars reticulata.

Robins typically lay four eggs. Four eggs allow the offspring to be well fed, whereas larger clutches may result in malnourished
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Stabilizing selection

Explanation:

The process of natural selection selects a species in one of the three ways: stabilizing selection, directional selection and disruptive selection.

During the process of stabilizing selection, nature does not favour the extreme phenotypes of the population but the intermediate phenotype with the maximum number of population.

In the given question, the Robin laid four eggs, neither more than four nor less than four which could have more disadvantages than the advantages.  Since the intermediate number of eggs is favoured by nature therefore the stabilizing pattern is observed.

Thus, Stabilizing selection is correct.

8. A scoop of ammonium nitrate is added to a beaker of water. Which is a quantitative observation of the experiment?
BaLLatris [955]

The correct answer is B. The temperature of the water decreased by 5°C

Explanation:

Temperature and the changes in it are part of quantitative observations because these can only be measured and understood through numbers. Indeed, the temperature is globally measured through different numerical scales such as the Celsius or the Kelvin scale. This does not occur in other qualities such as color because this is considered and analyzing using qualities or traits rather than values. According to this, the correct answer is "The temperature of the water decreased by 5°C."

4. Which option identifies the missing element in the following scenario?
Lady_Fox [76]

there are already many japanese plants, so not the iris. I don't see any water features here and I have no idea what a fence will do. Also I don't see a reason for a spirit gate, so the answer should be a water feature.
