Reflexes will be normal.
A reflex is a defense mechanism of the nervous system. It operates below the level of conscious control and permits quick reaction to potentially painful or damaging situations.

Default network


When the brain is unoccupied, an fMRI indicates that blood continues to flow via a web of brain regions called the default network.

The default network is a web of brain regions that have activity that corresponds greatly with each other and different from other networks within the brain. The default network is active when an individual's attention is not concentrated on the external environment and it is measured with the functional magnetic resonance imaging technique (fMRI).

In a situation where the concentration of solute is low inside the cell, the cell will be referred to as a hypotonic cell. The transport in this type is referred to as active transport.

<h3>What is active transport?</h3>

The movement of dissolved molecules into or out of a cell via the cell membrane, from a low concentration region to a high concentration region is referred to as active transport.

These particles use the energy released during respiration to move against the concentration gradient.

Thus, in a situation where the concentration of solute is low inside the cell, the cell will be referred to as a hypotonic cell. The transport in this type is referred to as active transport.

Which of the following statements about the equilibrium theory of island biogeography is FALSE?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

b) At equilibrium, the species composition of an island will not change.

Explanation:

The Theory of Island Biogeography written by Robert H. MacArthur and Edward O. Wilson (1967) is an essential book for any professional working in biogeography, biodiversity, ecology, conservation and related fields. The theory of island biogeography states that species diversity on islands tends to approach a dynamic equilibrium due to the balance between colonization (inmigration), speciation and extinction. At equilibrium, the species composition of an island will change, precisely at the time that immigration and extinction processes maintain the number of species in a dynamic equilibrium, thereby maintaining species diversity. In this case, the colonization rate represents a function of distance to the continent (or other islands), the extinction rate is a function of the size of the island and habitat heterogeneity, and speciation is a function of time. This book also contains a series of useful considerations: 1-the number of species in an area is directly associated with the size of the area; 2-large islands support more diverse communities than small islands; 3-the viability of populations on island systems can be considered as a function of the island size and its proximity to the mainland (or other islands); and 4- when a habitat is lost the remaining fragmented area may lose some of its important species.

Gross production is the amount of energy left after cellular respiration true or false ?
Arturiano [62]
This is false. Gross production is the total production that occurs before cellular respiration, or any net loss of energy occurs. It is impossible to maintain this initial amount of energy, however.
