Answer:

Explanation

The cerebellum is the part of the hindbrain of all vertebrates. In humans the cerebellum plays an important role to control and co-ordinate the body.

There are following functions of the cerebellum:

1. Maintaining balance: It exhibit specialized sensors which detects the shift in the balance and movements.

2. Coordinating movements: The cerebellum coordinates the movement of the muscles so that body can perform functions such as walking, running and others.

3. Vision: The cerebellum coordinates the movement of the eyes.

4. Motor learning: The cerebellum plays an important role in learning movements. For example it helps in learning to ride bicycle.

5. Maintenance of posture: The cerebellum coordinate the body to maintain the right posture while standing, walking and during other functions.

The cerebellum receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements. The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity.

At what point do the pulmonary and systemic circulation systems meet up?

Hitman42 [59]

Answer: The Heart

Explanation:

The blood circulatory system (cardiovascular system) delivers nutrients and oxygen to all cells in the body. It consists of the heart and the blood vessels running through the entire body. The arteries carry blood away from the heart; the veins carry it back to the heart. The system of blood vessels resembles a tree: The “trunk” – the main artery (aorta) – branches into large arteries, which lead to smaller and smaller vessels. The smallest arteries end in a network of tiny vessels known as the capillary network.

There are two types of blood circulatory system in the human body, which are connected: The systemic circulation provides organs, tissues and cells with blood so that they get oxygen and other vital substances. The pulmonary circulation is where the fresh oxygen we breathe in enters the blood. At the same time, carbon dioxide is released from the blood.

Blood circulation starts when the heart relaxes between two heartbeats: The blood flows from both atria (the upper two chambers of the heart) into the ventricles (the lower two chambers), which then expand. The following phase is called the ejection period, which is when both ventricles pump the blood into the large arteries.

In the systemic circulation, the left ventricle pumps oxygen-rich blood into the main artery (aorta). The blood travels from the main artery to larger and smaller arteries and into the capillary network. There the blood drops off oxygen, nutrients and other important substances and picks up carbon dioxide and waste products. The blood, which is now low in oxygen, is collected in veins and travels to the right atrium and into the right ventricle.

This is where pulmonary circulation begins: The right ventricle pumps low-oxygen blood into the pulmonary artery, which branches off into smaller and smaller arteries and capillaries. The capillaries form a fine network around the pulmonary vesicles (grape-like air sacs at the end of the airways). This is where carbon dioxide is released from the blood into the air inside the pulmonary vesicles, and fresh oxygen enters the bloodstream. When we breathe out, carbon dioxide leaves our body. Oxygen-rich blood travels through the pulmonary veins and the left atrium into the left ventricle. The next heartbeat starts a new cycle of systemic circulation. Below is an attachment of a diagram that explains the connection between pulmonary and systemic circulation from google.

10) List the one way plants can remove carbon from the atmosphere,

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Forests. Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide naturally — and trees are especially good at storing carbon removed from the atmosphere by photosynthesis

Explanation:

Plants are involved in the Carbon Cycle by absorbing Carbon out of the atmosphere in order to photosynthesize. The Carbon is used during the photosynthesis. It gets back in the environment by a plant's breathing process.
