Answer:

Spermatogenesis , Spermatogonia

Explanation:

Gonads are the primary sex organs in the male which are the two testes.

Each testis divide into testicular lobules each containing the sparse connective tissue with the endocrine interstitial cells that secrets testosterone, and also contains one to four highly convoluted seminiferous tubules which is responsible for sperm production.

The process is known as <u>spermatogenesis</u>.

This process begins with mitotic division of stem cells which are located close to basement membrane of tubules. The cells are known as <u>spermatogonial stem cell</u>s. The division produces two types of cells.

Type A cells are the cells which replenish stem cells and type B cells are the cells which differentiate into spermatocytes. They have number of chromosomes = 46.

Oxana [17]
<h2>Cholinergic and Adrenergic neurons</h2>

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a dual innervations system which innervates internal organs of the body through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). Depending upon the neurotransmitter and receptor used, the ANS fibers are classified as cholinergic or adrenergic neurons.

The preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic and the preganglionic and postganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACH) and hence are called cholinergic neurons.

The postganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system releases catecholamine like norepinephrine(NE) and hence called as adrenergic neurons.

The cholinergic neurons store ACH in the synaptic terminals. They are myelinated to aid in faster neurotransmission. The ACH neurotransmitter released from preganglionic neurons activates the two receptors – nicotinic ACH and muscarinic receptors on the postganglionic neurons .

The postganglionic neurons releasing NE binds to the adrenergic receptors – Alpha 1 and 2, Beta 1, 2, and 3.

If 100 mg drug is administered and has a half life of 6 hours, the percentage of the drug that will be in the system is 18 hours
atroni [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation as the question seems incomplete but the explanation should help.

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial dosage of drug = 100mg

Halflife of drug = 6hours

After 18 hours, the percentage of drug that will be in the system should be :

Half-life is the time taken for a material to reduce to half of it's initial size.

Since half life = 6 hours

After 6 hours ; amount left = 100/2 = 50 mg

After 12 hours ; amount left = 50/2 = 25mg

After 18 hours ; amount left = 25/2 = 12.5mg

Hence, after 18 hours percentage left in system :

(Amount left / total initial amount) × 100%

(12.5 / 100) × 100%

0.125 × 100%

= 12.5%
