How does neural transmission compare to endocrine signal transmission?

zalisa [80]4 years ago

The best way to compare the nervous system and the endocrine system is to compare the characteristics of speed, specificity and plasticity (abilityto respond and change permanently, particularly with respect to strength and speed.) The nervous system uses rapid electrical signals along nerve axons.Chemical signals are used between nerve cells at synapses. Although this chemical transmission is slower than electrical transmission, synapses are important in transmission between nerve cells. The endocrine system uses hormones, which are secreted into and transported to their target cells via the <span>circulation of blood. Due to the delay of circulation, hormonal responses.</span>

Neural transmission:
1) is transmitted by neurones.
2) quick response
3) involves neurones
4) short lived
5) may be voluntary or involuntary
6) usually localised

Endocrine signal transmission:
1) transmitted by blood
2) usually slow responses
3) involves hormones
4) may be short lived or long lived
5) involuntary
6) may affect more than one target organ

kow [346]

Answer:

Towards the southern of the sound

Explanation:

As the motion of the source of sound is moving,the percieved sound frequency varies .this is known as Doppler effect.the sound waves emited by the sources tends to bunch up in front of the source and spread out behind the source.

Since the falcon is moving towards the sound,the frequency increases and so does the pitch of the sound

Dimas [21]

Answer:

nitrogen fixation.

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixation is the process by which the combination of molecular nitrogen oxygen or hydrogen is given to give oxides or ammonium that can be incorporated into the biosphere. Molecular nitrogen, which is the majority component of the atmosphere, is inert and not directly usable by most living beings.

Can you identify the ploidy of different structures? drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to comple
Leni [432]

Answer:

1. The gametophyte generation is haploid.

2. The embryo is diploid.

3. The megaspore is haploid.

4. The sporophyte generation is diploid.

Explanation:

1. Gametophyte- The gametophytic generation is the structure which produces gametes in the plant. Since the gametes are haploid, therefore, the gametophyte us considered the haploid.

2. Embryo- The embryo is formed after the fusion of fertilization when zygote develops, therefore, is considered diploid.

3. Megaspore- the big size spore which is formed from by the meiotic division of the megasporocyte, therefore, is considered haploid.

4. Sporophyte- the sporophyte generation develops from the embryo which is diploid therefore is considered diploid.
