sdas [7]3 years ago

Answer;

Transport of substances


Explanation;

-Veins have vascular tissues, that is the xylem and the phloem. Xylem tissue transports water and mineral salts to the leaf, while phloem transports manufactured food from the leaf to other parts of the plant.

-Leaves need water for photosynthesis and the water is transported from roots to leaves through xylem.

-Veins are spread all over the leaves ,so they can easily transport water to all the cells of leaves.

-After the completion of photosynthesis in a chloroplasts, glucose is formed which may be used for cellular respiration or stored in form of starch. Phloem transports the glucose to other parts of the plant for cellular respiration;

Neurons in the parasympathetic pathway use which neurotransmitters?
Kay [80]
<h2>Acetylcholine</h2>

Explanation:

  • Acetylcholine is a chemical that is found between the nerve synapses, or gaps, between nerve cells. When activated, it causes the contraction of skeletal muscles and activates glandular functions in the endocrine system. Think of acetylcholine as a mailperson; residents cannot receive their mail until he or she comes and delivers it to the mailbox. Like mailpersons who deliver the mail and move on to the next house, acetylcholine acts quickly and does not hang around. As a result, acetylcholine is rapidly broken down by another chemical substance called cholinesterase.
  • Acetylcholine was the first neurotransmitter scientists discovered, as well as the most abundant neurotransmitter in the body. A neurotransmitter is a chemical that is released by a neuron, or nerve cell, that sends a signal to another neuron across a synapse. The neurotransmitter binds to receptors to affect how the signal is received. The purpose of the neurotransmitter is to either amplify or inhibit the signals sent between the neurons.
  • Acetylcholine plays an important role in the signal of muscle movement, sensation of pain, learning and memory formation, the regulation of the endocrine system and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep cycles.

What is the boundary between the earths lower mantle and the upper mantle called ?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

i have trusted my best to answer

Explanation:

Edit

The upper mantle of Earth is a very thick layer of rock inside the planet, which begins just beneath the crust (at about 10 km (6.2 mi) under the oceans and about 35 km (22 mi) under the continents) and ends at the top of the lower mantle at 670 km (420 mi). Temperatures range from approximately 200 °C (392 °F) at the upper boundary with the crust to approximately 900 °C (1,650 °F) at the boundary with the lower mantle. Upper mantle material which has come up onto the surface is made up of about 55% olivine, 35% pyroxene and 5 to 10% of calcium oxide and aluminum oxide minerals such as plagioclase, spinel, or garnet, depending upon depth.
