People are often able to live in a coma for several years because parts of the body that are not under conscious control continue to function. This situation best reflects the importance of the
A) central nervous system
B) autonomic nervous system
C) somatic nervous system
D) forebrain
Answer:
B) autonomic nervous system
Explanation:
The autonomic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system. It comes under the motor division of the peripheral nervous system. The function of this division of the nervous system is to deliver the motor information from the central nervous system to the smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands. The responses produced by these muscles and glands are not controlled by the will or conscious of the individuals.
Due to the functioning of the autonomic nervous system, the person under the coma could perform the activities such as breathing, pumping of heart to deliver the oxygen to the body cells, etc. and stay live.
Answer:
The organism will pass on the traits to their offspring. If the offspring also has an increased chance of survival it will have a higher chance of passing on the traits. Over a long period of time the entire population can inherit this trait.
Explanation:
According to the theory of natural selection organisms with beneficial traits are more likely to survive to the reproductive stage and pass on the beneficial gene to their offspring. <em>Natural selection selects beneficial traits.</em>
Remember that a controlled variable is a variable that stays the same thoughout the experiment.
it wouldn't be a. because two different wires were used
the final length of the wax would be your dependent variable, so it wouldn't be c.
the thermal conductivity is the independent variable so it isn't d.
the original length of the wax was the same for both.
So B is your answer.
The data has to be verifiable by the scientific community.
