Answer:

A neuron receives stimuli consisting of the response of  thousands of neurons. Synapse is the signals entering the neuron  via junctions called. The role of  the synapses are to modulate the signal strength and  determine the input signal is either excitatory,  promoting the neuron to fire, or inhibitory, tending to  prevent the neuron from firing. At the axon hillock the  neuron integrates the inputs and if this total is excitatory  then the neuron fires. Although this brief description  leaves out much of the complexity, it is still remarkable  that out of this web of electrochemical firing units,  emerges our very conscious.

During fetal development, sudoriferous glands develop from the :
lozanna [386]

Answer: The correct answer is A) Stratum basale.

Sudoriferous glands are also called as 'Sweat glands'. They are exocrine glands as they secrete their substances through the duct. They are tiny tubular glands with the secretory unit which is present in the dermis or subcutaneous tissue, and a duct which opens on the surface of the skin. Their primary role is regulation of body temperature as by sweating, body heat is lost.

During fetal development, sudoriferous glands develop from the Stratum basale. It is the deepest layer of the epidermis. It is made up of a single layer of cells which are resting upon the basement membrane, a layer present between dermis and epidermis.

Thus, sudoriferous glands are derived from Stratum basale during fetal development.
