<span>Ian Waterman was able to sense pain and temperature because his
spinothalamic pathway was intact, but could not feel touch and limb position because of damage to his
lemniscus pathway. </span>
The lateral spinothalamic tract is a sensory pathway which carries sensory information like pain and temperature to the brain, across the thalamus. Free nerve endings which are located in the peripheral tissues are sensitive to cell damage. Those are primary neurons and they pass the sensory signal. Primary neurons synapse with secondary which are located in the spinal cord (white matter). These secondary neurons will ascend through the brainstem, medulla oblongata, pons and midbrain, until synapsing in the ventroposteriorlateral (VPL) nucleus of the thalamus. From the thalamus, the information is sent to cortex (somatosensory cortex).
Posterior column-medial lemniscus pathway is ascending spinal tract, carrying sensory information to the brain (sensory pathway). It conducts localized sensations of fine touch, vibration and proprioception (position sense) from the skin and extremities (muscles) to the central nervous system (cerebral cortex).
I believe the answer you're looking for is cellular respiration.
Answer: Mosses retain soil humidity and prevents its degradation, besides are habitat for little invertebrates.
Explanation: Mosses are non-vascular plants (they don't have conductive vessels as xylem and phloem) that live places as tree trunks, rocks, walls and soils. This habitats must be humids because mosses need water for nutrient transport, because they don't have cuticle (prevents water lost) and for fertilization. Mosses are important for the ecosistems where they live because retain water in the soils thus prevent erosion and harbor invertebrates as Tardigrades (water bears).
Answer:
Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat, or light. (I'm sorry this is about Pollution, it should be about Pollination, I misread it sorry,)
Pollination:
Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma. The goal of every living organism, including plants, is to create offspring for the next generation. One of the ways that plants can produce offspring is by making seeds.
