Some of the nerve endings in the skin are sensitive to changes in temperature. They are part of a negative feedback mechanism re
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Answer is option A (receptor).

These nerve endings represent a receptor in the negative feedback mechanism.

Explanation:

Homeostasis in the human body is the tendency of the body to maintain its internal environment suitable for normal and optimal functioning by adjusting the changes occurring in internal variables such as body temperature, blood pressure, etc using feedback mechanisms. The two feedback mechanisms involved in homeostasis are positive feedback (the output of the system stimulates the system to increase the output further) and negative feedback mechanisms (the output of the system stimulates the system to decrease the output).

The various components in the feedback loop include;

stimulus - an initiation event that causes changes in a variable.

variable - a physiological factor that is kept at a normal range.

receptors - monitor the variable, detect changes in the variable value and report to control center.

control center - it compares the variable value to the normal range and if any deviation is found, the effectors are activated.

effectors - return the value to the normal range by making adjustments in the same direction (positive feedback) or opposite direction (negative feedback) of the stimulus.

In the body’s thermoregulation mechanism, a negative feedback loop is used in which the variable is body temperature. The nerve endings in the skin that are sensitive to changes in temperature are called heat-sensitive thermoreceptors. They detect changes in body temperature and produce nerve impulses that signal the hypothalamus in the brain. The hypothalamus is the control center that compares the body temperature with the normal range and activates and controls different effectors such as muscles, blood vessels, adrenal glands, sweat glands, etc. These effectors controlled by the hypothalamus perform certain physiological activities that can return the body temperature to normal range.

When body temperature drops, the hypothalamus activates and control the effectors such as blood vessels to constrict in order to decrease the flow of heat to the skin, muscles to shiver in order to increase the production of heat, adrenal glands to secrete hormones (norepinephrine and epinephrine) in order to increase metabolic rates and heat production. All these effects cause the body temperature to increase and return to normal.

When body temperature rises, the hypothalamus activates and controls the effectors such as blood vessels to dilate in order to increase the flow of heat to the skin, sweat glands to release sweat, which on evaporation cools the skin. All these effects cause the body temperature to decrease and return to normal.

WHO IS RESPONIBLE FOR THE REACTIONS OF CELLULAR RESPIRATION
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Mitocondria is responsible for the reactions in cellular respiration.

Explanation:

Mitochondria have an important role in cellular respiration through the production of ATP, using chemical energy found in glucose and other nutrients. Mitochondria are also responsible for generating clusters of iron and sulfur, which are important cofactors of many enzymes.

How is the whale adapted for breathing in the ocean?
frutty [35]
Because whales live in the ocean, many people think they are fish. But do you know that whales and dolphins are not fish? They are mammals. People are mammals too. Mammals are the group of animals that breath air using lungs, give birth to live young (rather than laying eggs), and feed their young with mother’s milk. All animals, including people, need oxygen, a chemical found in the air and in water. Fish use their gills to take oxygen from the water that they live in. But people get the oxygen we need by breathing air, using our lungs. Whales and dolphins use their lungs to breathe air also.

That’s one reasons why they come to the surface of the ocean. Sometimes they lie right at the surface of the water, with just a part of their back sticking out. Look closely at a picture of a whale or dolphin; can you see a nose on the whale? You can’t, because whales don’t have noses like you and me. Instead they have a hole – called a “blow hole” – on top of their heads. Sometimes when a whale breathes air out of its blow hole, it shows up as a spray or mist – called a “spout” – that can be seen many miles away. Blow holes are surrounded by muscles that keep the hole closed when the whale or dolphin is under water and open it when the animal is at the surface and needs to breathe.

In fact, some of the animals have two blow holes next to each other and others have only one. So when you see a picture of a whale, see if you can tell the difference. Pilot whales and dolphins have one blow hole; humpbacks, minkes and right whales have two
