Whatts the mechanism behind emotions? why do we have emotions?
Alexeev081 [22]
In biopsychology, there is a system in the brain which is called the limbic system. The limbic system is responsible for one's memory, emotions and instincts -drives.
Many researchers suggest that the existence of emotions helped the animal kingdom to respond to sociality and survive better, emotion can also be translated into care and love. These traits also aid why infants, babies and other offsprings of animals are cared for which has a great influence on the survival of the species.

Amygdala, responsible for pain, aggression and grief which is anterior to the hippocampus factors why our memories have incorporated and is strengthened with emotions at that specific circumstance.

Identify three types of natural selection for a polygenic trait.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

A polygenic trait can be described as a physical trait which is influenced by more than one gene.

The three types of selection for a polygenic trait are:

1) Directional Selection: In a directional selection, one of the phenotype is favored in an ecosystem. As a result of this favoring, the allelic frequency changes and shifts in favor of this particular trait.

2) Stabilizing selection: It is a type of natural selection in which the intermediate trait is favored. The population carries a middle trait in abundance.

3) Disruptive Selection: Disruptive trait is a type of natural selection in which the traits on the extreme sides are favored. The intermediate traits are less favored.

azamat

Answer:

Answer is option D.

Flowers contain parts for making seeds.

Explanation:

The part of the plant that is responsible for the sexual reproduction in plants is known as flowers. A flower is said to be complete if contains sepals, petals, stamens and pistil. If the flower lacks one or more structures, it is an incomplete flower.

A complete flower consists of a vegetative part and a reproductive part. The vegetative part contains petals (a bright coloured structure that attracts insects and birds) and sepals (a green coloured structure that protects rising buds and is usually found beneath the petals). The reproductive parts include stamen or androecium (male reproductive organ) and pistil (female reproductive organ). A flower may consists of only female parts or only male parts, or both.

Stamen contains two parts - anther, which produce and store the pollens (male gametes) and filament, which support the anther. Pistil contains three parts - stigma, which receives the pollen grains and style that connects stigma and the ovary, and ovary which contains a lot of ovules (female gametes) which forms the seed.  

Flowers reproduce by pollination, a process in which the pollen are transferred to the stigma of another flower. A pollen tube emerges from the pollen grain and grows through the style and reaches an ovule inside the ovary. Then the nucleus of the pollen grain passes through the pollen tube and fuses with the nucleus of the ovule and this process is known as fertilisation. The fertilised ovules become seeds and the ovary transforms into the fruit. The seeds are dispersed through various methods and the embryo inside them will grow into adult plants.

What are some effects of prostaglandins in the body?
Amanda [17]

A class of lipids called prostaglandins is typically produced at the sites of injury or infection and is used to treat both disease and injury. They regulate functions like blood flow, blood clot formation, inflammation, as well as labor induction.

Arachidonic acid, from whom prostaglandins are generated, is what causes inflammation:

  1. In synthetic form, prostaglandins are used to induce labor and give birth.
  2. They trigger uterine contractions and have a ring structure with at least two or three and perhaps more carbons.

Effects of prostaglandins in the body are

  • The hormone that circulates and regulates the kidney's reabsorption of sodium. Prostaglandins, which seem to be present in high concentrations, directly affect nerve terminals to induce pain.
  • The production of the inflammatory response is significantly influenced by prostaglandins. Their production is markedly increased in inflamed tissue, therefore they help to produce the essential symptoms of acute inflammation.
  • NSAIDs (which inhibit cyclooxygenase) as well as COX-2 selective inhibitors, sometimes known as coxibs, were examples of prostaglandin antagonists. Cyclopentenone prostaglandins as well as corticosteroids, which block the formation of phospholipase A2, might help to reduce inflammation.
