The time it takes in milliseconds for the brain to transmit a signal to your skeletal muscles can be determined given the speed and distance. It was given that the signal travels at approximately 25 m/s while the distance between the brain and one' hand can be set to approximately 1 m. To obtain the time, we divide the distance by the speed and convert it to milliseconds.

The equation would be: (1 m/ 25 m/s)*(1000 ms/1 s) = 40 ms.

Thus, it will take 40 ms for the brain's signal to travel before it can command your skeletal muscles to react accordingly.

4. What are the starting materials and products of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Lady bird [3.3K]
The processes are essentially opposite reactions. Photosynthesis forms carbohydrates (glucose, sugar) from carbon dioxide and water, releasing oxygen in the process. Cellular respiration uses the stored energy by oxidizing the carbohydrates and releasing water and carbon dioxide.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Rotating Cloud.

Explanation:

According to the nebular hypothesis presented by the Swedish philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg in 1734 that says that the Sun and all the other planets of our Solar System evolved from a giant cloud of molecular gas and dust. This huge cloud could have been the result of a shock waves from a supernova or any passing star, but the end result was a gravitational collapse at the center of the cloud.

Thus, the correct answer is - our solar system evolved from a huge Rotating cloud.
