Astrocytes are a group  of cells with functional characteristics and distinctive morphological that vary within specific areas of the brain.

For healthy brain function, astrocytes are essential. those become reactive in the case of Alzheimer's disease, which impacts the signaling properties. while experimenting, there was the measurement for instinctive calcium transients ex vivo in hippocampal astrocytes in brain slices containing the dentate gyrus of  9-month-old  and 6-month-old APPswe/PSEN1dE9 mice. when they investigated the duration of calcium transients and frequency concerning amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology, the proximity of the astrocyte to Aβ plaques, and aging. there was no change in spontaneous calcium-transient properties of 6M APP/PS1 astrocytes compared to wild-type astrocytes, whereas there was hyperactivity in 9M APP/PS1 astrocytes compared to wild -type,  which were longer in duration, also there was an effect of aging too, there was an increase in calcium in the 9-month astrocytes than to the 6-month astrocytes, also there was an increase in the calcium waves in the 9-month astrocytes because of the increase network activity. The findings were that the change in calcium signaling in individual astrocytes of APP/PS1 mice is because of both pathology and aging but these don't have any impact on changes in the astrocyte network activity, which leads to helping to understand changes in neuronal physiology.

Antlions can experience competition when
fredd [130]
<span>Antlion pits are often spatially aggregated even though there are potential negative effects associated with the aggregation (e.g., heightened competition and predation risk). This study investigated the possibility that a strategy leading to aggregation can be an evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS). In particular, the strategy considered was ‘decreasing relocation tendency when there are neighbors’. An individual based model showed that the strategy can be the unique ESS when the spatial distribution of prey is not completely random and antlions can learn it from their past foraging experiences. A laboratory experiment was conducted to examine the effects of the presence of neighbors and foraging success on the relocation behavior of antlion larvae. Antlions reduced their relocation tendency with respect to these factors, consistent with the predicted ESS. The results suggest that pit aggregations are formed because antlions reduce their relocation tendency when neighbors exist, and this strategy is an ESS.</span>

A) What is the aim of this experiment?
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

A) The aim of the experiment is to test the plant for photosynthesis.

B) Sodium hydrogen carbonate is known to increase the amount of carbon dioxide supply to the plants. Hence, it the availability of sodium hydrogen carbonate ensures that carbon dioxide is not the limiting factor for the experiment.

C) Submerged water plants are used because using these plants makes it easier to measure the rate of photosynthesis. Water and carbon dioxide become readily available to the plant which are the reactants for photosynthesis.

Name two types of pathways that help a body maintain homeostasis, and an example of each.
amm1812

Answer:

Explanation:

The cardiovascular and lymphatic systems transport fluids throughout the body and help sense both solute and water levels and regulate pressure. If the water level gets too high, the urinary system produces more dilute urine (urine with a higher water content) to help eliminate the excess water.
