Answer:

FRONTAL LOBE

Explanation:

The frontal lobe can be located at the anterior part of the brain, extending back to a fissure known as the central sulcus. The frontal lobe functions and helps in coordination of reasoning, motor control, emotion, and language. It contains the motor cortex, which is involved in planning and coordinating movement; the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for higher-level cognitive functioning; and Broca’s area, which is essential for language production.

Let say for example Kyle is my friend who was a victim of an accident.

Before the accident, he was industrious and well liked BUT after the accident, he is profane, impetuous, and incapable of working toward a goal.

Such changes in personality would be consistent with loss of impulse control which is a significant frontal lobe function. With connections between the planning functions of the frontal lobe and the emotional processes of the limbic system severed, Kyle had difficulty controlling his emotional impulses, attitudes and abiiity of working towards his goals.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

initially, collects in the structure indicated by the letter B

Explanation:

Filtrate is formed as fluid is forced through the walls of the glomerulus and, initially, collects in the structure indicated by the letter B.

Urine formed by a kidney collects in the renal pelvis before being drained from the kidney by the urethra and transported to the urinary bladder.

The process by which glomerulus filtration occurs is called renal ultrafiltration. The force of hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus (the force of pressure exerted from the pressure of the blood vessel itself) is the driving force that pushes filtrate out of the capillaries and into the slits in the nephron.

Hello. You forgot to enter the necessary data for this question to be answered. The data are shown in the figure attached below:

Answer:

Red-capped Robin is the group of Robins that share a more recent common ancestor with the Norfolk Island robins.

Explanation:

Red-capped Robin is the group of Robins that share a more recent common ancestor with the Norfolk Island robins, this can be seen by the degree of genetic similarity between these two species, since the Red-capped Robin has 98.2% of genetic similarity .

When two species have the same common ancestor, these species have great genetic similarity and the more recent this ancestry is, the greater the genetic similarity between the species.
