A single motor neuron together with all the skeletal muscle fibers it innervates is called a motor unit.

  • Motor neurons are more than just relays for the motor commands sent down the hierarchy from higher levels. They themselves are parts of intricate circuits that carry out extensive information processing.
  • Due to their highly branching, intricate dendritic trees, motor neurons are able to integrate inputs from several other neurons and generate accurate outputs.
  • A single motor neuron, and nothing else, innervates each and every muscle fiber (make sure you understand the difference between a muscle and a muscle fiber). However, several muscle fibers can be innervated by a single motor neuron.
  • A motor unit is the aggregate of a single motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers that it innervates. The innervation ratio refers to how many fibers a motor unit innervates.

Tropism

It is a biological phenomenon, indicating growth or turning movement of a biological organism. This is usually a plant in response to the environmental stimulus. This response is dependent on the direction of the stimulus. The stimulus must be perceived first, followed by movement towards or away to the stimulus. There are various types of tropism which are chemotropism, exotropism, geotropism and electrotropism.

What process is being used to break down macromoleucles? What happenes to the water during that process?
loris [4]
The process which is the breaking down of macromolecules is called Hydrolysis (the breaking of a bond in a molecule using water) This means that polymers are broken down into monomers. This literally means ‘Split water’ and a reaction between an ion and the water molecule is used during used during the breakdown.

Radda [10]
<span>I belive the answer is D. Burbank's process did not involve environmental pressures to shape the outcome. 

Burbank process is similar to natural selection because he will select the potato based on some traits. The trait would be big potato and resistant to disease. The genetic makeup will also favor those with the selected trait. This process should be faster.</span>
