"The Coriolis effect" is the one that prevents wind from blowing in a straight line from the north pole to the equator. The main reason for this effect is the spinning of our earth on its own axis. The earth spins faster near the equator than the poles. The reason is that the earth is wider near the equator. this causes the wind to deviate with the spin.
First pass metabolism of a drug is said to occur when the concentration of a drug that is administered orally is significantly reduced before it reaches the systemic circulation.
First pass metabolism usually occur in the liver.
The routes of drug administration that avoid complete first pass metabolism are: sublingual, transdermal, rectal and inhalation.
Answer:
proprioceptor
Explanation:
Proprioceptors are the receptor located in a joint, muscle, or tendon. These receptors are concerned with locomotion, posture, and muscle tone. These receptors respond to internal stimuli only and are present in a specific location in the body. For example, the tendon organ is a proprioceptor present in the tendon. The function of the tendon organ is to monitor the muscle tension and to prevent its tearing. These receptors also help smooth start and termination of muscle contraction.
Proprioceptors are the mechanoreceptors that regulate the body’s equilibrium and posture by their role in reflex actions that maintain muscle tone. They sense the position of limbs by detecting the degree of muscle relaxation, the stretch of tendons, and ligament movements.
