Answer:

Screaming is an emotional response triggered by the brain which receives information about the pain later as compared to pulling away of finger which is a reflex action facilitated by the spinal cord that has a quicker-time to response.

Explanation:

Reflex action happens when part of our body comes to contact with an object which can cause harm and you tend to quickly withdraw that part of the body.Reflex action happens quicker before the brain gets the time to process information about the harm.

When the baby touched the hot pan, at point of contact, skin receptors send nerve impulses to the spinal cord. Interneurons in the spinal cord relay a response to motor neurons to stimulate muscle contraction making the baby to pull his finger away.This happens so fast before the brain receives the message later to trigger emotional response(screaming).

which planet detection method would work best for a massive planet that's close to its host star but doesn't pass between us and
Alona [7]

The Doppler method is most frequently employed to find extrasolar planets, however it works best for finding extremely large planets that are near to their host star.

<h3>Which planet is the hottest?</h3>

Venus is the hottest planet within our solar system, with average global temperatures hot enough even to melt lead due to the runaway greenhouse effect caused by its thick atmosphere, which traps heat. Venus is around 700°F (390°C) hotter that it would be in the absence of the greenhouse effect.

<h3>Is it 8 or 9 planets?</h3>

Our solar system is made up of ten planetary systems, 146 moons, countless comets, meteorites, and other space objects, as well as Pluto and several dwarf planets. In the system, there is just the Sun. The eight planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and finally Neptune.

When a pitcher is throwing a ball, is he applying positive or negative work to the ball?
Romashka [77]
A.Positive as work=force×distance (assuming that distance is always a constant) the work will always be positive as the force is always positive(this is because force=mass×acceleration where the acceleration is always positive unless the mass is being slowed down)
