Neon is a member of the noble gas family. Other elements in this family includes <span>helium, argon, krypton, xenon, </span>and <span>radon. </span>These gases are in Group 18 (VIIIA) of the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to each other. The noble gases are sometimes called the inert gases. This name comes from the fact that these elements do not react very readily. In fact, compounds exist for only three noble gases—krypton, radon, and xenon. Chemists have yet to prepare compounds of helium, neon, or argon.
Neon was discovered in 1898 by British chemists William Ramsay (1852-1916) and Morris Travers (1872-1961). It occurs naturally in the atmosphere, but only in very small amounts.

The organelle that maintains pressure against the cell wall, so that the plant cell keeps it shape, is
the (a) central vacuole.
Substances that are made up of only one type of atom.
Answer:
3, 5, 1, 4, 2.
Explanation:
Neurons are the structural and the functional unit of the nervous system. Two main types of neurons on the basis of their function are sensory neurons and motor neurons.
The motor control in order body occurs in a sequential step. The motor program is selected by the pre motor cortex. This neuron is further stimulated by basal nuclei of the thalamus. This further stimulate the lower motor neuron. This causes the contraction in the skeletal muscle. This information is further move to cerebellum if movement is required.
Thus, the correct order is 3, 5, 1, 4, 2.
