Trans fat are fats found in thinks like sticks of margarine, snack foods, baked goods, and some fried foods. Trans fats are created when vegetable oils have hydrogen atoms added to them (or hydrogenated). Trans fats can raise cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease.

Answer:

<em>a. Cross-sectional study</em>

Explanation:

A cross-sectional analysis <em>includes at one particular point in time looking at data from a population.</em> Participants are chosen based on specific variables of interest in this type of study.

For developmental psychology, cross-sectional experiments are often used, but this approach is also used in many other fields, including social science and education.

After nervous stimulation stops, calcium ions returning to the sarcoplasmic reticulum prevent ACh in the synaptic cleft from con
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:  

Neurotransmitter release occurs from the nervous terminal or varicosities in the neuronal axon. When an action potential reaches the nervous terminal, the neurotransmitter is released by exocytose. The molecule binds to its receptor in the postsynaptic neuron, triggering an answer. As long as the signal molecule is in the synaptic space, it keeps linking to its receptor and causing a postsynaptic response. To stop this process the neurotransmitter must be taken out from the synaptic space. There are two mechanisms by which the neurotransmitter can be eliminated:

• Enzymatic degradation/deactivation: There are specific enzymes in the synaptic space, which are in charge of inactivating the neurotransmitter by breaking or degrading it. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase prevents ACh from continuing to stimulate contraction.

• Reuptake: Receptors located in the presynaptic membrane can capture de molecule to store it back in new vesicles for posterior use. These transporters are active transport proteins that easily recognize the neurotransmitter.

A series of reciprocal adaptations in predator and prey populations describes _______.
Ahat [919]
<h2>Co-evolution </h2>

Explanation:

A series of reciprocal adaptations in predator and prey populations describes co-dependence or co-evolution

  • In co-evolution, two species which are in association evolve together due to their relationship
  • Both the species have different ancestry
  • Interactions exhibited by co-evolution are: host parasite interaction, prey predator association, evolution of long proboscis in insects for taking nectar from flowers
  • Predation is a very short term behavior in which two different species interact with each other for the demand of energy, one is prey and the other is predator
  • For successful predation, predator wants minimum energy investment and maximum energy
  • Increase in prey population in any given area attracts predator population, hence population of predator also increases in that area
  • Increase in predator population results in decrease in prey population after some time decrease in prey population leads to decrease in predator population also
