Elan Coil [88]3 years ago

  <span> In unmyelinated axons, the action potential (nerve impulse) travels continuously along the axons and thus, the conduction of nerve impulse is slower. The loss of myelin sheath is called demyelination and is the hallmark of some neurodegenerative autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis or acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. Demyelination interrupts signals between the brain and other parts of the body and it includes symptoms like loss of vision/hearing,</span> <span>blurriness in the central visual field, double vision, weakness..</span>

Ecosystems include food webs that show predation and prey interactions among organisms. But ecosystems have many more relationsh
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Food webs describe the relationships — links or connections — among species in an ecosystem, but the relationships vary in their importance to energy flow and dynamics of species populations. Some trophic relationships are more important than others in dictating how energy flows through ecosystems. Some connections are more influential on species population change. Based on different ways in which species influence one another, Robert Paine proposed three types of food webs based on the species of a rocky intertidal zone on the coast of Washington (Ricklefs 2008, Figure 2). Connectedness webs (or topological food webs) emphasize feeding relationships among species, portrayed as links in a food web (Paine 1980). Energy flow webs quantify energy flow from one species to another. Thickness of an arrow reflects the strength of the relationship. Functional webs (or interaction food webs) represent the importance of each species in maintaining the integrity of a community and reflect influence on the growth rate of other species' populations. As shown in Figure 2, limpets Acmaea pelta and A. mitra in the community consume considerable food energy (energy flow web), but removal of these consumers has no detectable influence on the abundance of their resources (functional web). The most effective control was exerted by sea urchin Stronglocentrotus and the chiton Katharina (Ricklefs 2008).

Explain the three different types of RNA.
UkoKoshka [18]
There are three types of RNA involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribisomal RNA (rRNA). All three of these nucleic acids work together to produce a protein. The mRNA takes the genetic instructions from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, where the ribosomes are located.

When analyzing data, which does the scientist look for?
sergeinik [125]

When analyzing data scientists look for patterns, that help them form predictions.

Patterns are rules that variations/characteristics follow, either in data or anything else patterns might be used for.

Example:

The fact that worms are found always 10 meters forom eachother (not true, it's an example) is a pattern, that will help you predict the location of the next worm.

Hope it helped,
