Critical thinking is considered important in psychological science because it enables one to analyze, evaluate, explain, and restructure thinking, thereby decreasing the risk of adopting, acting on, or thinking with a false premise. Within the framework of the scientific method and scientific skepticism, the process of critical thinking involves acquiring information and evaluating it to reach a well-justified conclusion or answer.
Answer: A
Mitochondrion contains a Cristaes which are folds within the mitochondria to
Answer:
1. B, D and J.
2. A and C.
3. E, F, G, H, AND I.
Explanation:
A cell can be defined as the fundamental or basic functional, structural and smallest unit of life for all living organisms. Some living organisms are unicellular while others are multicellular in nature. A unicellular organism refers to a living organism that possess a single-cell while a multicellular organism has many (multiple) cells.
A membrane is a thin layer which forms the wall of the cell and typically controls what leaves and enters the cell.
Some of the effects of various biological conditions on membrane physiology are;
1. Makes RMP (Resting Membrane Potential) Less Negative: this simply means that it decreases RMP;
- Decreased concentration of leaky potassium channels in the membrane.
- ATP stores are declining through mitochondrial poison (arsenic).
- Increased concentration of leaky sodium channels in the membrane.
2. Influences the Ability of the Cell to Repolarize;
- Voltage regulated potassium channels are blocked.
- Acetylcholine esterase concentration is decreased.
3. Influences the Ability of the Cell to Depolarize;
- The size of the synaptic cleft is increased.
- Hyperhydration (high water concentration in ECF).
- Release of excitatory neurotransmitter by a presynaptic input is blocked.
- Hyponatremia (low ECF sodium).
- Neurotransmitter synthesis is compromised due to Golgi dysfunction in the presynaptic neuron.
Answer:
B) Styrofoam is a good insulator.
Explanation:
When talking about thermal energy, or a heat, insulator is a material that doesn't allow heat to pass through easily. On the other hand, a conductor is completely the opposite, it allows, quite successfully, transfer of the heat.
So, regarding ice cream, from these definitions above, we can conclude that insulators will prolong melting time, while, in the conductors, ice cream will melt rather fast.
Looking at the table, we see that Styrofoam had the longest melting time, which makes it quite successful insulator.
