Answer:

The correct answer is "flux".

Explanation:

The four main carbon reservoirs on Earth are located in the atmosphere, the terrestrial biosphere, the oceans and the sediments. Any movement of carbon between carbon reservoirs is called a flux. It is possible to estimate the net direction and magnitude of the carbon fluxes, however there are several processes that are responsible for these fluxes, including: photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, combustion, among others.

Answer:

1) In eukaryotic flagella, the fibers that slide past one another due to the activity of dynein proteins are microtubules.

2) Many cell organelles, most notably the nucleus, are anchored by intermediate filaments which are assembled from a diverse class of proteins.

3) Centrosomes are sites where protein dimers assemble into microtubules.

4) The extension of pseudopodia in amoeba is due to the regulated assembly and destruction of microfilaments.

5) The only cytoskeletal fibers not associated with intracellular movement or whole cell locomotion are the intermediate filaments.

6) During muscle contractions, myosin motor proteins move across tracks of microfilaments.

Explanation:

The cytoskeleton is a very important element of the cell, and is composed of three different structures: microtubules, intermediate filaments, and microfilaments.

Microtubules are structures in the shape of hollow tubes that give shape to the cell. Microtubules also participate in cell motility by providing a route for the organelles to move through.

Intermediate filaments are the only ones that do not participate in cell motility: their main function is to provide mechanical support for the plasma membrane.

Microfilaments are a key component in cell motility, and also associate with myosin (a protein) to produce muscle contraction. Microfilaments also give the cell the ability to grow pseudopods.

Which area of the brain may be affected when a client with anxiety disorder shows symptoms related to respiratory activation and

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:Medulla and pons.

Explanation: Brain is the part of the body that controls all body activities. Medulla and pins are part of the brain.

Medulla controls respiration. It receives signals from chemoreceptors and send to muscles that allow respiration. It also regulate heart rate and blood pressure to ensure adequate blood supply circulate the body system.

Medulla also help in adjusting respiration when there is need and also generates normal breathing movements by stimulating the nerve that supplies the diaphragm. This pons are located under the medulla and it controls speed of involuntary respiration( respiration

Not under conscious control).

When a patience shows a disorder in respiration, invountary respiration, increase in heart rate its a disorder of Medulla and pons also called Brainstems

BRAINLIESTTTT ASAP!!! please explain your answers. :)

QveST [7]

The two are potassium and rubidium. Why? Na is an alkali metal. As you go down the metals become more reactive.
Calcium has 20 protons. Why? The atomic # is 20 (the one at the top).
It has 20 neutrons. Why? The atomic mass (the number on the bottom) is ~40, ignoring electron mass. 40- 20 protons = 20 neutrons.
It has 20 electrons.
Why? The # of protons and electrons is the same. Ions aren't on the periodic table.
