OK, well, I'm sorry I love using commas, I'm weird, well, because there is low pressure at high altitudes it tends to be colder on top of a mountain than at sea level....

Ya that's it.

Is it something to do with the pressure of the air, higher up it has more air pressure making it cooler? I don’t really know but it’s an educated guess

The barrier between the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments in an animal or plant is the:________
adoni [48]

The barrier between the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments in an animal or plant is the <u>plasma membrane</u><u>.</u>

The plasma membrane or cell membrane is a double membraned cell organelle that surrounds and protects the cell and other cell organelles. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have a cell membrane.

The plasma membrane is about 5 - 8 nm in thickness and is composed of proteins, lipids and carbohydrates that come together to form a flexible bilayer. This lipid bilayer gives the cell membrane its ability to separate intracellular and extracellular fluids.

The plasma membrane also plays a role in signalling and communication between cells and anchors the cytoskeleton to provide cell shape and maintain cell potential.

Describe the function and main structures of the nervous system. Describe the state of a resting neuron, including the charges i
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The function of the central nervous system is to control all function of the body and mind and to integrate all sensory information received and and respond accordingly.

The central nervous system is made up of the brain and the spinal cord and its neurons.

The resting state of a neuron is  -70 mV (mV=millivolt) - which means that the inside of the neuron is 70 mV less than the outside of the neuron, therefore, at rest, there are relatively more sodium ions outside the neuron (which are negatively charged) and more potassium ions inside that neuron (Positive charge)
