ish. Its horse-shaped head gives it its name. This creature lives in the Pacific waters off the west coast of the Americas, from Peru to Southern California. Like many other ocean fish, sea horses face the constant challenge of losing water to their saltier environment.
18) When a Pacific sea horse’s body loses water to its environment, which process is responsible?

A) Exocytosis


B) Facilitated diffusion


C) Osmosis

19) When the sea horse eats a meal, its body breaks down organic molecules in the food. Some of those molecules enter cellular respiration, which ultimately produces the molecule ATP. In which part of the sea horse’s cells is ATP produced?

A) Golgi apparatus


B) Vacuoles


C) Mitochondria

20) When a sea horse sees a predator, its nervous system kicks into high gear. A charge reversal wave will travel the length of the nerve cell. When the impulse reaches the end of one nerve cell it must travel across the synapse to the next cell. Neurotransmitters exit one cell and enter another via a method of active transport called, exocytosis. Which structure is responsible for transmitting signals from one nerve cell to the next via this process?

A) Ribosome


B) Cell Membrane


C) Nucleus

By adopting a sociological imagination, you can look beyond commonly held beliefs to the hidden meanings behind human actions.
makkiz [27]

True,

Social Imagination gives us insight about how the social environment plays a crucial role in shaping us and our thoughts and in a progressive/degenerative way shape our society.  

For instance – a girl who is of dark complexion lives in inferiority complex as she feels she don’t looks pretty. From a distant view, we may feel that it’s the personal problem of that girl, but when we look from a social imagination point of view, we may realize that it is the obsession of the society with fair colour that creates such problems.
