Answer:
- In terrestrial environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increased photosynthetic rate
- In aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increase in water acidity
- In both terrestrial and aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels lead to an overall increase in the average temperature (global warming)
Explanation:
In terrestrial ecosystems, rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase the rate of photosynthesis (since CO2 is one of the reactants in photosynthesis), thereby also increasing plant growth. Moreover, in aquatic ecosystems, rising CO2 concentrations increase the levels of this gas dissolved on the surface of the oceans. This increases the acidity of the oceans, thereby modifying habitats and food web structures. The increasing acidity of the oceans also reduces the amounts of carbonate, which difficult for aquatic species (e.g., corals) to form their shells/skeletons. Finally, CO2 is a greenhouse gas that contributes to the increase in the average temperature by absorbing solar radiation that would otherwise have been reflected by the Earth's surface, and this increase in the temperature negatively affects life in both terrestrial and aquatic environments.
The correct answer is: A) pontine respiratory centers
The respiratory centre in the pons is responsible for generating and maintaining the rhythm of respiration. Besides this elementary function, it also has the ability to adjust respiration rhythm in c response to physiological changes. Respiratory centre consists of three major respiratory groups of neurons:
• The dorsal respiratory group (DRG)- initiates inspiration (inhalation)
• the ventral respiratory group (VRG)-responsible for exhalation
• Pontine respiratory group- includes the pneumotaxic (controls both the rate and the pattern of breathing) and apneustic centers (promotes inhalation by sending signals to dorsal group).
Answer:
Alzheimer's disease
Explanation:
Neurodegenerative disease is the condition which is caused when the fundamental unit of the nervous system called neurons degenerate. The two main neurodegenerative diseases are Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
The Parkinson's disease is the disease which affects the musculoskeletal system but the Alzheimer's patient is not able to recall the memory and events, therefore, interfere with the deterioration of the cognitive and emotional abilities.
Thus, Alzheimer's is the correct answer.
Answer:
D-Vacuole
Explanation:
The vacuole performs many functions such as storing water, nutrients,and wastes and it also plays a major role in the structure of the plant
