People are often able to live in a coma for several years because parts of the body that are not under conscious control continue to function. This situation best reflects the importance of the

A) central nervous system

B) autonomic nervous system

C) somatic nervous system

D) forebrain

Answer:

B) autonomic nervous system

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system. It comes under the motor division of the peripheral nervous system. The function of this division of the nervous system is to deliver the motor information from the central nervous system to the smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands.  The responses produced by these muscles and glands are not controlled by the will or conscious of the individuals.  

Due to the functioning of the autonomic nervous system, the person under the coma could perform the activities such as breathing, pumping of heart to deliver the oxygen to the body cells, etc. and stay live.

All materials within ecosystems can be recycled.
netineya [11]

Answer:

All the things expect enegry are recycled.

Explanation:

  • When the decomposer decomposes the organic substances than they are taken by plants in the form of nutrition and minerals. Likewise, the food prepared by the plants are taken by animals and the nutrition is recycled.
  • The oxygen and carbon dioxide cycle is also recycled. When the animals releases carbon then the plants take it and gives out the oxygen. In this way oxygen and carbon dioxide cycle is also maintained in nature.

But incase of enegry it cannot be recycled but frequently transfered from one form to another form.

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 11 m/s in a period of 3 s. What is your acceleration? Answer and units
Alexandra [31]

Acceleration  of a body is defined as rate of chance in velocity with respect to time and its S.I. Units are meter/sec^{2}/ or m/s^{2}

Magnitude of average acceleration of a body = (final speed - initial speed)/time interval = (v- u)/t

where, final speed =v= 11 m/s; initial speed = u = 6 m/s; and time interval = t = 3 s

Hence acceleration = (11-6)/3 = 5/3 = 1.67 m/s^{2}
