Answer:

A. The process of reciprocal inhibition.

Explanation:

In our body, not all the muscles contract and relax simultaneously. The muscle supporting certain reflex are contracted while the others need to be relaxed at that time. In the process of reciprocal inhibition, when a message of contraction is sent by the central nervous system to the agonist muscles, the tension in the antagonist muscles is inhibited by the impulses from the spinal interneurons so that the antagonist muscles get relaxed simultaneously and the reflex action can be completed without causing any damage to our muscular system. If both agonist and antagonist muscles will contract and relax simultaneously, there may be tear in the muscles that's why reciprocal inhibition is a important phenomena occurring in our body.

Under which environmental condition would primary succession occur ​
astraxan [27]

Explanation:

Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation- this occurs in barren areas devoid of life like sand dunes, and lava flows. Communities in a primary succession include:

-barren rock

-bacteria and fungi

-mosses and lichen

Further Explanation:

Succession involves small scale changes within a community that occur repeatedly over the life of that community.

Ecological communities are highly dynamic- they gradually evolve. Typically their progression involves:

  • colonizing species exploiting uninhabited areas (Primary succession)
  • becoming a habitable and increasingly complex community
  • there is increased diversity of organisms (Secondary)

The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community. While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation; secondary succession begins after major disruption in the community such as fires, storms and flooding.

However, the process of becoming a climax community can be pretty complicated- it is very dependent on other factors like temperature and rainfall. Communities that experience rapid change, frequent major disruptions and even human intervention, are less likely to attain a stable equilibrium and may never become climax communities.
