Answer: B. Tendons; ligaments
Explanation: Tendons are white, inelastic and tough connective tissue that attach skeletal muscle to bone. Tendons attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. Fibres in tendons are arranged as compact parallel bundles.
A ligament is a yellow, elastic and strong fibrous connective tissue which attaches bone to bone. Ligaments usually hold bones together and keep them stable. Fibres of the ligament are compactly packed and but they are not arranged in parallel bundles as that of tendons.
Answer: The relationship between blood pressure and heart rate responses to coughing was investigated in 10 healthy subjects in three body positions and compared with the circulatory responses to commonly used autonomic function tests: forced breathing, standing up and the Valsalva manoeuvre. 2. We observed a concomitant intra-cough increase in supine heart rate and blood pressure and a sustained post-cough elevation of heart rate in the absence of arterial hypotension. These findings indicate that the sustained increase in heart rate in response to coughing is not caused by arterial hypotension and that these heart rate changes are not under arterial baroreflex control. 3. The maximal change in heart rate in response to coughing (28 +/- 8 beats/min) was comparable with the response to forced breathing (29 +/- 9 beats/min, P greater than 0.4), with a reasonable correlation (r = 0.67, P less than 0.05), and smaller than the change in response to standing up (41 +/- 9 beats/min, P less than 0.01) and to the Valsalva manoeuvre (39 +/- 13 beats/min, P less than 0.01). 4. Quantifying the initial heart rate response to coughing offers no advantage in measuring cardiac acceleratory capacity; standing up and the Valsalva manoeuvre are superior to coughing in evaluating arterial baroreflex cardiovascular function.
Explanation:
I think most scientists would not respect this researchers claim.
It doesn't seem like the researcher followed the steps of the scientific method.
1.) Making an observation.
2.)Asking questions.
3.)Forming a hypothesis.
4.)Conducting an experiment.
5.)Analyzing Data.
6.)Drawing a conclusion.
7.)Showing work to others.
Publishing his/her work would be the very last step after completing everything else.
Answer:
The inhibitory transmitter activates ligand-gated potassium channels
Explanation:
When a cell is in hyperpolarized state,the potassium gated channels are taken longer time to close up, Therefore, more K+ leaks out of the axoplasm to the exterior.Therefore the cell appears to continue in the resting state, with more negative value of the cell potential of (-120 mV) and this called hyperpolarization.
However, with the addition of inhibitory transmitter,the ligand-gated potassium channels are activated,Theses channels closes up.Then sodium gated channels, which were initially in refractive state reopens, sodium ions diffuses inwards for depolarization, and the neuron returns to depolarized state.
