Sometimes the reflex response is diminished or absent- a phenomenon termed hyporeflexia. Do you think hyporeflexia would be caus

ed by disorders of the central nervous system or the peripheral nervous system? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

The functions of the skeletal muscles are affected by the CNS via the two sets of neurons, that is, lower motor neuron and upper motor neurons. The PNS comprises sensory neurons and motor neurons. The lower motor neuron is monitored by the upper motor neuron.  

Hyporeflexia occurs because of the dysfunction of the lower motor neuron or its lesion. The lower motor neurons refer to the neurons, which innervate the skeletal muscles directly. Destruction to the central nervous system leads to hyper reflexes and destruction to the peripheral nervous system results in hyporeflexia.

When fertilizers run off farmland into streams and ponds, the nitrogen content of the water increases. This can lead to rapid gr
Agata [3.3K]
The correct answer is '<span>Oxygen is used up as algae is decomposed, reducing the amount available to other organisms.</span>' The additional nutrients in the water will result in an algal bloom. These algae will result in drastic oxygen fluctuation, from oxygen rich conditions during the day as algae photosynthesize, to anoxic conditions during the night when the algae respire. However, the algal bloom will eventually deplete the available nutrients, resulting in a vast algal die off. The decomposing algae result in anoxic conditions, and the effects are sometimes very obvious, with fish gasping for breath and dying.

How many years would it take the Atlantic Ocean to grow 500 centimeters? Show your work.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

250 years

Explanation:

The Atlantic Ocean is not static, but instead it is very active, and it is actually spreading from its central part. In its central part, this ocean has a mid-ocean ridge. This basically means that there is constant formation of new crust from the magma that comes out, and the old crust is pushed sideways as the new one is formed. On an annual level, the mid-ocean ridge is spreading out by an estimated 0.02 meters, thus that is how much the Atlantic Ocean is spreading out each year. In order to get to the result as to how many years are needed for the Atlantic Ocean to spread 500 cm, we just need to multiply the annual spreading with the number of cm in question:

0.02 x 500 =250

Thus we get a result of 250, meaning that in 250 years the Atlantic Ocean will spread out 500 cm in total.

DerKrebs [107]

True, plants undergo cellular respiration because they need ATP.

Plants are known as primary producers in the ecosystem because they are able to directly harness the energy from the sun and convert it into complex energy molecules. This process requires ATP.

On the other hand, plants also undergo cellular respiration which is the process by which ATP is produced because the plant also needs ATP to perform the functions of cells.
