<h2>1. unconditioned stimulus, </h2><h2>2. loud noise</h2>

Explanation:

Such type of stimulus that is trigger by the neutral in nature is called a conditioned stimulus such as the sound of the bell and some other.

How long does it take for a person's cells to all die after clinical death?
Blababa [14]
Clinical death is the medical term for cessation of blood circulation and breathing, the two necessary criteria to sustain human and many other organisms' lives.

It occurs when the heart stops beating in a regular rhythm, a condition called cardiac arrest.


Brain injuries start to accumulate almost immediately after Clinical Death.

Full recovery of the brain after more than 3 minutes of clinical death at normal body temperature is rare.

Usually brain damage or later brain death results after longer intervals of clinical death even if the heart is restarted and blood circulation is successfully restored.
Although loss of function is almost immediate, there is no specific duration of clinical death at which the non-functioning brain clearly dies.






The most vulnerable cells in the brain, CA1 neurons of the hippocampus, are fatally injured by as little as 10 minutes without oxygen.

However, the injured cells do not actually die until hours after resuscitation.

Brain failure after clinical death is now known to be due to a complex series of processes called Reperfusion Iinjury that occur after blood circulation has been restored, especially processes that interfere with blood circulation during the recovery period.

Hope this helps!!!

You are sorting cards with pictures of organisms and their descriptions into groups. You would place the card with an osprey and
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The osprey card and its description should be placed in the heterotrophs group.

Explanation:

Organisms that can synthesize inorganic substances, such as light, and turn it into food according to their own needs are <u>producers</u>, and they are called a<u>utotrophic organisms</u>. These organisms are by excellence all <u>plants</u>, that <u>photosynthesize</u>.  Organisms that are incapable of producing their food are called <u>heterotrophic organisms</u>. They <em>depend on other organisms</em> from the trophic chain such as plants or other animals to feed on, so they can get proteins and energy.

In the trophic chain, heterotrophic organisms occupy the <u>first, second or third consumer level</u>, after producers.

There are different types of heterotrophic animals: carnivorous, herbivorous, omnivorous, hematophagous, ichthyophagous, and etcetera. All of them depend on autotrophic organisms.
