Answer: The correct answer is -

motor neurons.

Explanation:

Nervous system ( that includes two branches that are central nervous system and peripheral nervous system) helps in the transfer of nerve impulses to and from the various parts of body.

Sensory neurons receive information from sensory receptors (which are stimulated through outside environment). They take this information to the CNS (central nervous system that includes brain and spinal cord), where it gets processed and interpreted (particularly in the brain).

Ultimately, Motor neurons transfers this interpreted information (from the CNS to the muscles) to the glands, muscles or various other body organs for proper action to take place.

Therefore, motor neurons carry information from the CNS to dog muscles, which alarm him to run away.

Thus, motor neurons are at work.

A new species of chordate is discovered. It produces a free-swimming larva that has a notochord and a nerve cord. The larva atta
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Urochordata

Explanation:

Chordata is an animal phylum characterized by four features at some point in their lifetime. These four features are:

  • notochord
  • pharyngeal slits
  • dorsal hollow nerve cord
  • post-anall tail

Chordata is further divided into urochordata, cephalochordata and vertebrates.

Urochordates display all the four features of chordates in their larval form but their adult form has none of them except pharyngeal slits. They also change from their free swimming larval form to sessile adult form which means that they attach to a surface unlike the larval form. They also display filter feeding i.e. their food is filtered via the pharyngeal slits. Since all these characteristics are being displayed by the newly discovered species, it belongs to urochordata group.

Do sperm cells contain more mitochondria than any other cell?<br>​
NARA [144]

Answer:

<em>Sperm</em><em> do not contain more </em><em>mitochondria</em><em> than other cells</em>.

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for energy production within the cell. These organelles perform their function thanks to the oxidative phosphorylation process that occurs inside and produces ATP.

Cells such as skeletal muscle fiber have many mitochondria, due to the energy demand it has.

In comparison, the sperm has a limited amount of mitochondria that help mobilize its flagella, and that they lose when they enter the ovule, a cell that has even more mitochondria than the sperm.

BigorU [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option e. ​"pancreas".

Explanation:

One of the main function of the pancreas, is to produce insulin, a hormone that allows glucose to enter the cells in order to be used to produce energy. When the blood glucose level rises after a meal, the first organ to respond is the pancreas by secreting insulin and allowing the body to use the ingested glucose. Type 1 diabetes occurs when pancreas does not produce enough insulin and high levels of glucose remain in the blood.
