<span>A common mistaken notion about the nervous system that persisted from ancient times up through the work of some renaissance thinkers was that the ventricles play a major role in the transmission of messages in the brain. In actuality the ventricles are filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) which bathe and cushion the brain and spinal cord within their bony confines, thus protecting them, amongst other things.</span>

What is parthenogenesis? give an example
ANEK [815]

Answer:

It's a form of asexual reproduction!

Development of the offspring happens without fertilization in this type of reproduction.

The two main ways in which parthenogenesis happens is by apomixis or automixis. Through apomixis , the egg cells are produced by mitosis. Through In automixis, egg cells are produced by meiosis.

Mitosis = a part of cell cycle: replicated chromosomes are separated into 2 nuclei

Meiosis = type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. So now there is four haploid cells that are  genetically distinct from their parent cell.

Example:

An example of an animal that can use this reproduction is a bonnethead shark! Once a shark had a baby in a tank that only had three females!

Crank

Answer:

Body temperature is monitored and controlled by the thermoregulatory centre in the brain. This centre has receptors sensitive to the temperature of the blood flowing through the brain. If the core body temperature is too high, the thermoregulatory centre causes the blood vessels supplying the skin capillaries to expand so that more blood flows through them. Since the blood flows through the entire body, it can take the excess heat from the core of the body to the skin, where it can be lost. When a blood vessel of any sort increases in diameter, we say that it dilates. Because the dilation is related to the vascular (blood) system, this process is called vasodilation.
