The immune system and the nervous system maintain extensive communication, including 'hardwiring' of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves to lymphoid organs. Neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine, norepinephrine, vasoactive intestinal peptide, substance P and histamine modulate immune activity.
Answer:
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows :
Animals that maintain internal body temperature using heat generated by their own metabolism are called:
A)thermoregulators.
B)hibernators.
C)aerophiles.
D)endotherms.
E)dormants.
- An animal that is capable of maintaining a body temperature that is metabolically favorable for the organism is known as an endotherm.
- The body temperature is maintained by an endotherm by using its internal body capacity to generate heat rather than depending on the ambient temperature.
- Some of the mechanisms used by endotherms to maintain a suitable internal body temperature include shivering, uncouple oxidative phosphorylation, sweating, flushing, etc.
- The endotherms include birds and mammals.
- The ability to perform endothermy is owed to the presence of a large number of mitochondria that enables the organism to increase the rate of metabolism to generate heat as and when required.
Answer:
potential energy
Explanation:
Work changes potential and kinetic energy. When you throw a ball, you transfer energy to it and it moves. By doing work on the ball, you can give it which is the energy of motion. Any moving object has some kinetic energy.
Answer and explanation:
The garden pea had many advantages to be used as a model in inheritance studies. These plants grow very fast, so you can rise several generations in little time. This fundamental if you want to do this kind of studies. The study object needs to have a brief generational time, so they can be selected and their descendants can be raised again. Another advantage was that garden peas can be raised easily. They don't need any special care. Besides, they were common in the market. Mendel could find them and bought them any time that he wants. Also, they presented visible characteristics that could vary from one plant to another. Some pea gardens had violet flowers, while others had white flowers. Some were tall, while others were small. These made possible to select plants with specifics features and to study if they could transmit these features to the next generations.
It could be really difficult to do the same experiment in humans. several years would have to pass to observe new generations, so during the lapse time of the researcher, only a few human’s generations could be studied.
Natural selection does not ______
1. Select what a species needs
<u>2. Make favorable traits more common </u>
3. Help populations adapt
4. Cause changes in a population
