Answer:
D. Gross primary productivity is the total amount of solar energy captured by producers through photosynthesis over time.
Explanation:
The gross primary productivity of an ecosystem represents the rate at which the producers of the system capture the solar energy so that they can perform the process of photosynthesis. Therefore, GPP is the total amount of photosynthetic energy captured per unit area over a given time period. Producers consume the part of the GPP for their own respiration and maintenance. Therefore, gross primary productivity is the sum total of the growth of producers per unit area per unit time and the energy used by them for respiration.
Answer:
I think C
Explanation:
New neurons are born not from mature nerve cells but rather develop from neural stem cells that remain in our brains throughout life. Indeed, in some brain areas, there is continual turnover of neurons - old ones die and new ones are born - and these new neurons can participate in circuits that underlie learning.
The term you are referring to is called diffusion.
Answer:
The correct answer is ''G-protein coupled receptors on the surface of cardiac muscle cells.''
Explanation:
Adrenaline is a catecholamine whose pharmacological effects occur at alpha and beta adrenergic receptors. The mechanism of action of all beta adrenergic receptors is the activation of a G protein that activates adenylyl cyclase and increases cyclic AMP production. Adrenaline by b-adrenergic stimulus increases the contractile force of the myocardium (positive inotropic action) and increases the frequency in which the myocardium contracts (positive chronotropic action), consequently there is an increase in cardiac work, with a greater demand for oxygen due to the myocardium to be able to contract. Therefore, the blood flow to the heart is indirectly increased, bringing with it a greater supply of oxygen.
