Biology

kirza4 [7]4 years ago

The effect would be that, an individual would always be at the grade level you were on when you caught the virus. An individual might be able to use very limited short term memory to cram for quizzes or tests but lasting learning would not be there. The hippocampus is a small organ located within the brain's medial temporal lobe and forms an important part of the limbic system, the region that regulates emotions.  A group of aggressive viruses, including those responsible for common colds, polio and diarrhoea, may harm a crucial memory-processing region in the brain known as the hippocampus.

The circulatory system includes which of the following? a. the heart only c. the heart and the brain b. the heart and blood vess
Arisa [49]
The answer should be C, the heart and the blood vessels.

The heart acts as a pump in the circulatory system. It pumps blood to organs and tissues all around the body. Meanwhile, the blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries) help transport the blood to tissue and cells and back to the heart. Each type of blood vessel has their own function.

The brain is not involved in this system, as the whole circulation process does not require any us to make any decision.

In addition, there's also one structure that is in the blood vessels, but technically not another item for the circulatory system. That's valves, they are like flaps that ensure blood flowing in one wag direction and to prevent the back flow of blood.

So, the answer is C.
