Explain how your brain and sensory organs get information from the outside world

Your brain has about 100 billion neurons, all of which are interneurons. Each of these neurons may receive up to 10,000 messages from other neurons and may send messages to about 1,000 more. Every day, billions of nerve impulses travel through your nervous system from neuron to other neurons or body structures. The place where a neuron transfers an impulse to another structure is called a synapse. At the axon tips, electrical signals carried through the neuron change into a chemical form. This change allows the message to cross the gap. The message then continues in electrical from through the next neuron.

Some plants can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Explain one benefit of this dual reproduction capability.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

An additional advantage of asexual reproduction is that colonization of new habitats may be easier when an individual does not need to find a mate to reproduce. During sexual reproduction the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring that differ from their parents.

Explanation:

An organism has many benefits for having the ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually. The first of these benefits is that it doesn't have to find a mate in order to reproduce, so it can create offspring by itself, and enable the continuation of its' species.

Antimony has two naturally occuring isotopes, 121 Sb and 123 Sb . 121 Sb has an atomic mass of 120.9038 u , and 123 Sb has an at

valina [46]

Answer:

Percentage abundance of 121 Sb is = 57.2 %

Percentage abundance of 123 Sb is = 42.8 %

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

$Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})$

Given that:

Since the element has only 2 isotopes, so the let the percentage of first be x and the second is 100 -x.

For first isotope, 121 Sb :

% = x %

Mass = 120.9038 u

For second isotope, 123 Sb:

% = 100 - x

Mass = 122.9042 u

Given, Average Mass = 121.7601 u

Thus,

$121.7601=\frac{x}{100}\times 120.9038+\frac{100-x}{100}\times 122.9042$

$120.9038x+122.9042\left(100-x\right)=12176.01$

Solving for x, we get that:

x = 57.2 %

Thus, percentage abundance of 121 Sb is = 57.2 %

percentage abundance of 123 Sb is = 100 - 57.2 % = 42.8 %
