Gwar [14]4 years ago

A stroke is a kind of vascular brain injury ischemic in origin meaning there is decreased blood flow in one or more parts of the brain, most commonly caused by narrowing of arteries. The primary motor area is located in the frontal lobe, specifically the precentral gyrus or Brodmann area 4. Since the patient has lost motor activity on his right side of the body, then the more specific answer is the stroke is located in the left (contralateral because of decussation) frontal lobe, precentral gyrus.

Which statement accurately describes dark matter? It is the same as dark energy. It is well understood by scientists. It does no
kow [346]

Answer:

Dark matter does not emit electromagnetic radiation.

Explanation:

Dark matter comparative to dark energy, has various differences. You could say that dark energy is put into action on a larger scale than dark matter, which is also why dark energy makes up 74 percent of the universe. Thus, dark matter ≠ dark energy.

Scientists have a lot to learn about dark matter, so we can't claim that this subject has been well understood about scientists. In fact, it is one of the least understood parts of the universe!

_______________________________________________________

Now dark matter can be defined as particles that do not absorb, reflect, or emit light. Thus, it can't be observed by electromagnetic radiation - nor shifts in red and blue light. At the same time it does not emit electromagnetic radiation.

Animals lose heat through the surface areas of their skin. A small animal, such as a mouse, uses a much larger proportion of its
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio

Explanation:

Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).

Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.

The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.

Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.
