Neuron is a cell of the nervous system that is involved in carrying of impulses between the nervous system and the rest of the body. There are three types of neurons namely; relay neuron, motor neuron and the sensory neuron. Neuron is made up of various parts that enhance is activity in transmission of impulses/information which includes, dendrites, cell body, axon, myelin sheath among others. The conduction of information in the neuron starts from the Dendrites, then to the cell body, to axon and then to synapse where a neuron links with another and the process is repeated. Therefore; the correct answer is C

The correct order of the parts of the neuron with respect to the direction of the action potential is "dendrite, cell body, axon, synapse".

The dendrites receive impulses from the synapse of another neuron. Then these impulses are propagated towards the neuron cell body then to the axon. In some nerves, axons are wrapped by myelin sheath and the impulses travel per node of Ranvier (saltatory conduction), which offers faster transmission of signals. Then the impulse or action potential will trigger series of events that will eventually lead to the release of neurotransmitters and transmit impulses to another neuron.

why might it be beneficial to regulate what species of plats and animals people are allowed to own in particular environments

Neko [114]

Hi there!

Regulating species and plants in a certain area is beneficial for a lot of reasons. Below I'll list one of the most important reasons for regulating.

- Invasive species. As a direct result of the danger invasive species pose, regulating animals and plants in an area can help reduce the risk of a non-native species wrecking havoc on the environment. In the past and as of today many pet owners buy plants and animals from across the globe. Once they get too big some release them into the environment without any regards for the potential disaster it could bring. An example of this would be the Burmese Python which completely upset the ecosystem of souther Florida once let loose.

Which of the following is a nonpoint source of water pollution

Leokris [45]

Answer:

"Rainwater pouring from an eroded bank into a river" is a non-point source of water pollution.

Explanation:

Bank erosion is the washing away of stream or river banks. This is distinct from erosion of the watercourse bed, known as scour. These erosion undermines the roots of trees which develop by a lake. As the roots closely connect the soil, they form abutments that jut out above the surface.

Non-point source water contamination is induced by widespread and isolated waste sources such as rain and snowmelt runoff, spills, leaks, and sediment erosions. To release any pollutant, without a permit, from a point source into navigable waters is illegal according to the Clean Water Act.
