Her nerves send signals of pain to her nervous system and back to her finger and then she feels the pain.

When piper cuts her finger, sensory neurons in her fingers detect the stimuli (knife to cut the vegetables) and, through a nerve impulse, send this information through connector neurons in the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system - and eventually to the brain. The information is then processed and then another nerve impulse is sent from her brain to her body so that she can react and respond to cutting her finger (which likely is to move away from the knife). Hope this helps a little.

the correct answer is b, since increasing the porosity of the contact lens allows it to work as a good method of gas exchange, simulating the lung membranes that present fenestrated capillaries that promote gas exchange. For this to happen, the permeability must always be high and therefore this is directly related to the porosity of the element with which the contact lens is made.

zysi [14]

Because though there is a lot of available water, an ever shrinking 3% is freshwater, which comes from groundwater and streams. The ocean is salinated and in order for it to be fit to be used by humans for domestic needs or for drinking, it needs to undergo a huge desalination process which costs lots of money and time.
