Answer:

The cranium

Explanation:

The cranium is the upper part of the skull that is made up of eight bones that do not move, which serves as protection for the delicate brain structure in humans. The cranium bones are named according to the area of the brain they serve as protection to these are: the sphenoid bone, the ethmoid bone, the occipital bone, the two temporal bones, the frontal bone, and the two parietal bones, making eight in number.

The occipital bone protects the occipital lobe; the parietal bones protects the parietal lobe of the brain; and the frontal bone protects the frontal lobe of the brain.

steposvetlana [31]
In the picture attached to this question, the two diagrams above did not show very well but I believe that the first diagram contain four dots, which means that the correct option is A.
Carbon has six electrons, that is why 6 is its atomic number is 6 . In writing electronic configuration, two electrons are usually placed in the most inner shell while the other shells will have 8 electrons each. In the case of carbon which has 6 electrons, only four will remain after 2 electron has been put in its inner shell. Therefore the number of electron in its outermost shell will be four.

Which statement is not true of endothermic animals?
ahrayia [7]

Hello! Your answer would be C, They regulate body temperature through behavioral mechanisms.

An endothermic animal is one which is capable of maintaining its own body temperature. They do this through physiological mechanisms, which is what the last choice is saying - these involve things such as hormones, sweating, etc.

These endothermic animals are considered warm blooded. This is because they can make their own body heat. Humans and other mammals are endothermic. We generate our own heat - we don't rely on sunbathing or shade to cool down or heat up our <u>internal</u> body temperature.

Hope this helps!

What do you think really happened to the people of easter island?
BaLLatris [955]
Easter Island is a small 63-square-mile patch of land — more than a thousand miles from the next inhabited spot in the Pacific Ocean. In A.D. 1200 (or thereabouts), a small group of Polynesians — it might have been a single family — made their way there, settled in and began to farm. When they arrived, the place was covered with trees — as many as 16 million of them, some towering 100 feet high.

These settlers were farmers, practicing slash-and-burn agriculture, so they burned down woods, opened spaces, and began to multiply. Pretty soon the island had too many people, too few trees, and then, in only a few generations, no trees at all.
