Correct answer is label B. on the purple shaded area which is inside the ventral horn and dorsal.

Spinal cord is termed as tubular or long thin structure which is made of nervous tissue. It is being extended to the lumbar region which is found in the brainstem from the medulla oblongata.

This is enclosed in the central canal which contains cerebrospinal fluid of the spinal cord. If we combine spinal cord and the brain we come up with Central Nervous System.

Between the second and first lumbar vertebrae is where spinal cord extends and it is where it ends.

<em>The major function of spinal cord is nerve signal transmission from motor cortex to body. </em>

A scientist finds the bones of a dinosaur. what could help the scientist determine the approximate age of the dinosaur bones

diamong [38]

The biggest help for the scientists may be provided by the ground layer in which the bones were found. If the layer of ground is not disturbed, than the scientist can easily see the time periods from the structure and color of the ground, and thus determine the time period from when the fossil originates and the approximate age of it.

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Hydrological cycle: the continuous movement of water between the Earth's surface and the atmosphere.

2. Industry: pollutes water sources by dumping wastes in rivers, streams, and oceans.

3. Sewage: the leading cause of water contamination in countries without water treatment plants.

4. Agriculture: a source of water pollution caused by the overuse of pesticides and fertilizers.

5. Eutrophication: caused by an overabundance of organic matter in water supplies.

6. Putrefaction: the decomposition of organic matter by microorganisms

7. Pesticides: a chemical pollutant that can enter the water cycle through agricultural or domestic use.

8. Petroleum: can cause the contamination of underground water supplies if poured on the ground

9. Lead: a metal that leaks into water supplies via the soil or aging water systems.

10. Humoral immunity: depends upon the production of disease-specific antibodies to destroy harmful bacteria.

11. Stimulants: increases the activity of the central nervous system.

12. Depressants: reduces the activity of the central nervous system.
