Yes! a region of the body with greater sensory acuity to have cutaneous receptors with large receptive fields, or small receptive fields.

The sensory receptor located in the skin is known as a cutaneous receptor ( the dermis or epidermis). The somatosensory system includes them. Mechanoreceptors (pressure or distortion), nociceptors (pain), and thermoreceptors are cutaneous receptors (temperature). The lowest spatial resolution is found in the thigh and calf area, whereas the fingertips have the highest spatial resolution (and the smallest receptive fields) (and largest receptive fields). Two-point discrimination threshold measurements can be used to assess the spatial resolution in response to light touch stimuli.

What primary determines the carrying capacity of a population?
mamaluj [8]

Explanation:

Carrying capacity is determined by limiting factors.

Carrying capacity is determined by limiting factors which affect the amount of resources available. Limiting factors may include water, space, nutrients, minerals, light, etc.If we're discussing carrying capacity in the context of a species, the number of available mates, predation, disease, or competition with another species could determine the species' carrying capacity. For example, a species of bird may have plenty of space and but if it needs to compete with another species for food, the degree and extent of competition will limit the population.

Or there may be plenty of available habitat, food, and water for tigers in India, but if there are only a few tigers breeding and producing offspring, the carrying capacity of the species will be determined by the number of females producing young.

Many of these same limiting factors apply when we refer to the carrying capacity of an ecosystem. For example, in a desert ecosystem, there may be plenty of available space, but the number of organisms the system can hold may depend on the amount of water.

Another ecosystem may be limited by nutrient-poor soil. If the soil in an area is low in nutrients, fewer photosynthetic plants will be able to grow, which means less food for organisms consuming the plants, which means less food for organisms that eat those organisms, and so forth. The nutrient concentration of the soil affects the carrying capacity of the entire ecosystem.

OverLord2011 [107]
The statement is true. There are two main anabolic stimuli for muscle that is exercise and protein ingestion. Protein not only provides the building blocks for the muscle, but also provides the trigger to stimulate muscle protein synthesis. Muscle protein synthesis is the physiological process of adding new amino acids to muscle  proteins and is the primary mechanism of muscle growth.
