Answer: Autonomic nervous system is made up of 3 divisions; Sympathetic nervous system, parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic division. All these divisions are involuntary actions where parasympathetic is ultimately responsible for the "rest and digest" part of it. When the body is at rest the parasympathetic nervous system inhibits or lowers high energy requiring bodily functions.
This nervous system will lower any fight or flight response actions such as the release of epinephrine into the blood and enable digestion, urination and defeacation. When engaged in digestion you feel relaxed and at rest, this is solely due to the parasympathetic nevous system.
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>a. How many chromosomes does a child receive from its father?</u>
Every person receives half of their chromosomes from their father and half from their mother. For that reason, if humans have 46 chromosomes in each somatic cell, 23 of them come from the father.
<u> b. How many autosomes and how many sex chromosomes are present in each somatic cell? </u>
Each somatic cell has 46 chromosomes in total; of which 22 pairs are autosomes and 1 pair are sex chromosomes. Therefore, 44 chromosomes are autosomes and 2 chromosomes are sex chromosomes (the X and/or Y chromosomes).
<u>c. How many chromosomes are present in a human ovum? </u>
The human gametes (ovum in women and sperm cell in men) have half of a somatic cell's genetic material, so that when they combine in a zygote to create their child, they form an initial cell with 46 chromosomes in total. The ovum therefore has 23 chromosomes: 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome.
<u>d. How many sex chromosomes are present in a human ovum?</u>
As I mentioned in the previous question, a human ovum has 1 sex chromosome. That way, when it combines with a sperm cell, which also has 1 sex chromosome, they form a zygote with <u>a pair</u> of sex chromosomes (one that comes from the mother and one from the father).
Answer:
An invasive species thrives in its new ecosystem and out-competes native species. So, some factors are dominance, environment, predators, and resource availability.
