Shallow groove on the surface of the cortex is called sulcus.

Cortex means the outer layer of an inner organ. The outer layer of the cerebrum is called cerebral cortex, where cerebrum occupies the biggest part of the brain. A human being has four lobes of the cerebral cortex which include temporal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and frontal lobe.

Cortex has six layers of different types of neurons which are responsible for higher information processing and thinking. Cerebral cortex controls general movement, behavioural reactions, perception and visceral functions. We term the grooved layer as the brain itself.Cerebral cortex consists of large amounts of sulci and gyri(sulcus and gyri in singular). The number of gyri correlates to the processing ability of the animal.A man has big gyri compared to a rat.

We think of termites as insects that “eat” wood. In fact, however, termites rely on a variety of eukaryotic and prokaryotic gut
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Symbiosis

Explanation:

Termites are the important insects due to its role in in nutrient recycling in the terrestrial ecosystems. Termites eat wood. The wood contain cellulose, a complex carbohydrate which is cannot be digested by most insects such as termites. For the breakdown and digestion of wood is carried out by the microorganisms present in the hindgut of the termites. The microbes live in the gut as a symbiont. The microbes break down cellulose into simple sugars and fatty acids which are easily absorbed into the cells of the termites.

We are reacting two molecules of nitrogen gas with six molecules of hydrogen gas to form ammonia, nh3
pentagon [3]

To form ammonia, we can react 2 molecules of N₂ with 6 molecules of H₂. Once the reaction has completed, the total molecules of each gas will be: 1 molecule of nitrogen, 3 molecules of hydrogen, and 4 molecules of ammonia.

<h3>How to predict the total molecules of reactants and products?</h3>

The formation reaction of ammonia needs one molecule of nitrogen and 3 molecules of hydrogen. The reaction is as shown in the equation below:

N2(g) + 3H2(g) --> 2NH3(g)

2N2(g) + 6H2(g) --> 4NH3(g)

They will form a new product as four molecules of NH₃. Speaking in the present time after the reaction has completed, half of the reactants (N₂ and 3H₂) are gone to form the ammonia. Hence, the correct answer is: 1 N₂, 3 H₂, and 4 NH₃.


This question seems incomplete. The complete query is as follows:

"We are reacting two molecules of nitrogen gas with six molecules of hydrogen gas to form ammonia, NH₃. How many molecules of each type of gas will be present once the reaction has completed?"
