Answer:
The correct answer is - As a person ages, scoliosis may develop resulting in an abnormal spinal curvature and shorter stature.
Explanation:
Scoliosis is a condition in which spine curvature towards the sides takes place before the puberty during growth period or spurt normally. The cause of this condition could be muscle dystrophy or palsy and similar condition.
This affects the stature of an individual but not affected by age as it remains constant normally after development or growth till puberty. All other conditions are associated with the short stature and influenced by the age.
Answer: A Fixed Action Pattern
Explanation:
A fixed action pattern is an ethological term and off course a natural activity pattern that causes animals to act in a specific behavior pattern distinctive to their species. It is a pattern that is relatively unchangeable within the species and usually ends even when it is interrupted. You can say that, it is innate releasing mechanism or network where sign stimulus exists, once released from neural network; fixed action pattern leads to completion as well.
Answer:
Explanation:
Although protons resemble other positive ions such as Na+ and K+ in their movement across membranes, in some respects they are unique. Hydrogen atoms are by far the most abundant type of atom in living organisms; they are plentiful not only in all carbon-containing biological molecules, but also in the water molecules that surround them. The protons in water are highly mobile, flickering through the hydrogen-bonded network of water molecules by rapidly dissociating from one water molecule to associate with its neighbor, Protons are thought to move across a protein pump embedded in a lipid bilayer in a similar way: they transfer from one amino acid side chain to another, following a special channel through the protein.
Answer:
Classification is a systematic ordering of the object of research, in this case, ecosystems at the earth's surface or, in other words: landscape units as 'holons'. As for general principles of classification, we can learn a lot from the best-known classification, the taxonomical classification of species.

Answer:
Answer : Depolarized
Explanation:
Sodium and Potassium ions tend to move inside of the axin when the membrane is depolarized.
A change in polarity occurs in the axon membrane when a nerve impulse travels across it. At the beginning of an action potential or nerve impulse , the ions of sodium tend to move inside of axon causing depolarization. As a result potassium ions tend to move outside of the axon causing re polarization. Hence, this effect causes the nerve impulse to travel in one direction only inside the axon.
