Describe the interactions of the nervous and muscular system
Svet_ta [14]

The human body comprises of more than 600 muscles differentiated in three classifications, and all are under the control of the nervous system. The activities like picking up a dropped pen or leaning over incorporate the combined effort of various muscle groups.  

The alert mind relays this instruction to the central nervous system that conducts it in the form of electrical impulses. These are then mediated via the somatic segment of the peripheral nervous system to the nerves accountable for monitoring the essential muscles.  

When the signals arrive, a chemical known as acetylcholine gets discharged from the nerve terminals, activating the membranes of muscle fibers and making them to contract. The receptors present in the muscles provide the brain with the instruction regarding the movement and position of the body, the brain monitors the contraction of skeletal muscles.

What is the most important abiotic factor that<br> limits distribution of the tundra biome?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Temperature is the most harsh abiotic factor that limits distribution of the tundra biome.

Explanation:

The tundra biome can be described as a biome that is one of the most abundant biome of the earth but allows little growth of trees due to its very cold temperatures. Often, in a tundra biome, no trees would be seen. The ground soil of this biome remains frozen most of the year and is termed as permafrost. The tundra biome shows very little biodiversity due to the extreme cold conditions. Very few animals and plants are adapted to live in these conditions.
