Answer: The structure of the spinal cord can be described as consisting of all the above named.

Explanation:The spinal cord is the main pathway for information connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system. Much shorter than its protecting spinal column, the human spinal cord originates in the brainstem, passes through the foramen magnum, and continues through to the conus medullaris near the second lumbar vertebra before terminating in a fibrous extension known as the filum terminale.

It is about 45 cm (18 in) long in men and around 43 cm (17 in) in women, ovoid-shaped, and is enlarged in the cervical and lumbar regions.

In hemoglobin, the transition from t state to r state (low to high affinity) is triggered by:_________
Elena L [17]

In hemoglobin, the transition from t state to r state (low to high affinity) is triggered by Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG)

  • Bisphosphoglycerate (BPG), also known as 2,3-Disphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG), aids in the transition of hemoglobin from a high-oxygen-affinity to a low-oxygen-affinity state.
  • 2,3-BPG binds to hemoglobin, causing oxygen to be unloaded. Furthermore, 2,3-BPG reduces hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen. As hemoglobin is unloaded in our tissues, 2,3-BPG binds to it, promoting oxygen unloading.
  • When we increase the concentration of 2,3-BPG in our blood, the oxygen binding curve shifts to the right. This means hemoglobin will have a lower affinity for oxygen and will be able to deliver more oxygen to our body's tissues and cells.

How did creating a greenbelt affect sprawl? Why do you think this happened?
scZoUnD [109]
The OECD found that the responsiveness of housing supply to demand in the UK was the weakest among developed countries, due in large part to green belt policies. The green belt concept was first introduced for London in 1938 before the 1947 Town and Country Planning Act enabled local authorities to designate the status themselves. The policy was introduced to contain urban sprawl following huge post-war housing developments, and expanded greatly between 1951 and 1964. Since 1979, the green belt has doubled to cover 13 per cent of land in England (while only 2.3 per cent is covered by buildings).

Compare a bituminous roof membrane to a single ply roof membrane.
Digiron [165]

<span>Single-ply membranes are a assorted and promptly increasing group of sheet materials that are functional to the roof in a single layer. As equated to built-up membranes, they need less on-site labor, and they are usually more flexible and therefore less liable to to cracking and ripping. They are attached to the roof surface by any of several means.</span>
