Which statement about neural reflex arcs is incorrect? Which statement about neural reflex arcs is incorrect? Their function is

to protect the body from harm caused by homeostatic imbalances or external events. They contain the following elements: receptor, integrating center, and effector. They are slowed down by the hormones involved. An afferent path leads to the integrating center and an efferent path leads away from it.

Answer:

The incorrect statement is that the neural reflex arc becomes slow by the hormones involved.

Explanation:

A neural pathway that controls a reflex is known as a reflex arc. In a reflex arc, the sensory neuron transmits a signal to the interneuron and stimulates it. The interneuron then transmits or passes the signal to the next neuron, that is, a motor neuron. The motor neuron associates with the interneurons in the spinal cord, which transmits messages from the CNS to the body. Thus, a reflex arc comprises the elements, that is, the receptor, integrating center, and the effector. Their main activity is to protect the body from external events.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

d. alcohol inhibits the release of ADH

Explanation:

Alcohol play an opposite role in water reabsorption. ADH is made in supraoptic nuclues of hypothalamus and transfers fby neuron to posterior pituatry where it gets stored and secreted. Alcohol stops the release of ADH from posterior pituatry which decreases the serum level of ADH. As the ADH level lowers it wont be able to reabsorb water from the distal/collecting tubules of kidneys leading to increase in urine volume and urination.

attashe74 [19]
The correct answer is the last option.

The first option (unable to cause climate change) is incorrect because these gases do effect the atmospheric temperatures by increasing them.
The second option is incorrect because while these gases do cause more water vapor to condense, they result in acid rain (not wetter climates).
