True, Methane is a greenhouse gas
Answer:
Option E, C tactile (CT) afferent
Explanation:
Whenever a slow moving gentle touch experienced, the response is due to the nerve fibers called C-Tactile afferents (CTs).
C-Tactile afferents (CTs) are unmyelinated mechanoreceptors of low threshold and low conduction velocities.
In humans, CT neurons are found in hairy skin.
The pleasant feeling observed during a slow gentle touch is due to the interaction of
CT neurons project to the insular cortex in the brain
Hence, option E is correct
The answer is C.
A virus is made up of or consists of a nucleic acid in varying quantity which may either be RNA or DNA.
The nucleic acid is surrounded by a protein shell called a capsid. The word capsid comes from the Latin word capsa which means box.The capsid and the nucleic acid within it are together referred to as nucleoprotein.The capsid is made up of small sub units called capsomeres.
In many viruses, the nucleoprotein makes up the whole virus. More complex viruses have one or more further enclosing structures also made mostly of protein. These structures are referred to as envelopes and each envelop is specific to a particular virus.
Answer: Carbon dioxide
Explanation:
The forests and phytoplankton are carbon sinks, which absorbs the green house gas carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for photosynthesis. The carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water are used as reactant in photosynthesis to yield carbohydrates and oxygen as products. Thus the carbon dioxide level in atmosphere decreases. This is necessary for controlling pollution in the environment and reducing the environmental temperature as carbon dioxide can make the environment warm.
Answer:
A. Galaxies
Explanation:
Galaxy cluster is known to contains 50 to 1000 galaxies, having a total mass between 100 trillion and 1 quadrillion solar masses, crossing across a distance of 30 million light years.
The word galaxy is derived from the Greek galaxias which means milky, a reference to the Milky Way. Galaxies range in size from the smallest of it with just a few hundred million stars to giants with one hundred trillion stars, with each rotating/orbiting its galaxy's center of mass.
