Answer:

Nervous system:

The nervous system is comprised of two main systems, which are the Central nervous system,CNS(Brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system,(PNS).

Basic Unit:

The basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system is the neuron.

Explanation:

Frequency of the stimulus and number of receptors in the area:

As the reaction shown by the nervous system towards the change will be all based upon the number of receptors which receives the stimulus and also depends upon the frequency of the change occurred.

Cutaneous receptors:

Inside the human body there are number of pain receptors, along with which a limited number of neurons are there to receive the stimulus relating pressure,cold and warmth. As there are sensory neurons found inside the epidermis layer of the skin which are refereed to as the cutaneous receptors. They receive different stimuli, which are basically the change occurred inside or outside the organisms body.

Now, these receptors will detect any change and will direct the muscle spindle fiber either to contract or relax according to the frequency of the stimulus.

Which process must occur before the gametophyte generation?

Ber [7]

The process must occur before the gametophyte generation is Sporophyte. A sporophyte is the diploid generation of a plant or alga that has a double set of chromosomes. [ All land plants, and some algae, have life cycles in which a multicellular haploid gametophyte generation alternates with a multicellular diploid generation. In the Gymnosperms and flowering plants (Angiosperms), the sporophyte generation is the most prominent phase, comprising the familiar green plant with its roots, stem, leaves and cones or flowers. In the flowering plants, the gametophytes are very reduced in size, and are represented by the pollen and the embryo sac.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

Do to the fact that Earth's axis is tilted 23.5 degrees to the plane of the "ecliptic", which is the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Each planet's orbital plane is a little different from Earth's, and each planet has a different axial tilt. The fact that we are talking about 5 dgrees we are talking about Jupiter which there would be little to no change

Atelectasis is caused by occupational exposure to coal dust. a. true b. false

Irina18 [472]

The statement is true. Atelectasis is the collapse or closure of a lung resulting in reduced or absent gas exchange. It may effect part or all of a lung. An airway blockage also can cause Atelectasis. A blockage may be due to a foreign object, a mucus plug, lung cancer, or a poorly placed breathing tube from a ventilator. When a blockage occurs, the air that's already in the air sacs is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Unattached microbes are moved from the lungs to the epiglottis by the _______ effect.

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The unattached microbes are moved from lungs to epiglottis by the mucociliary escalator effect.

Explanation:

Mucociliary escalator, also known as mucociliary clearance, is one of the major defense mechanisms that protects the lungs. It describes the self-cleaning mechanism of the bronchi which are present in the lungs. The effectiveness of this mechanism depends on the properties of the produced mucus and on the quality and number of the cilia present in the lining of the airway.

Therefore, the unattached microbes are moved from lungs to epiglottis by the mucociliary escalator effect.
