Elderly people are most at risk
from minor trauma that results in serious spinal cord injury because of
preexisting degenerative vertebral disorders. Males are more prone to spinal
cord injuries than females but not as a result of preexisting disorder. This
may be related to an increased involvement in contact sports or a propensity to
participate in high risk activities. Neither females nor infants are at any
particular risk for spinal cord injuries.
Answer:
Gas exchange during respiration occurs primarily through diffusion. Gas molecules move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration. Blood that is low in oxygen concentration and high in carbon dioxide concentration undergoes gas exchange with air in the lungs.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
Neurons transmit signals to the central nervous system. The brain processes this information to initiate a response. Two neurons communicate with each other through the ( axon , dendrite, synapse) . The ( cerebrospinal cord, glial cell, neurotransmitter) is released at the site to initiate action potential and carry the signal through the body.
Answer:
synapse
neurotransmitter
Explanation:
Neurons are the basic units for the transmission of signals to the central nervous system. The two neurons are connected through the syanpse. Synapse is the space or junction between two nerve cells, or neurons.
The neuron receives signals through dendrites and two neurons communicate with each other through a chemical called neurotransmitter, which is released at the end of a nerve fibre and carry the signal through the body.
Hence, the correct answers are synapse and neurotransmitter.
Only one of the original DNA strands acts as a templates during replication.
