Say you were 100 meters tall. In that case, the nerve impulse would reach your brain in about 1 second, since it goes 100 meters per second. You're a little less than 50 times shorter, so the nerve impulse must take a little less than 1/50th of a second. 

In fact, distance traveled = speed of travel * time it takes. Thus, 
time = distance/speed 
==> time = 1.7m/(100m/s) 
<span>==> time ~ 0.017 seconds, or about 17 milliseconds.


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.</span>

Most fat-soluble nutrients are absorbed in the _______ system. Question 19 options: vascular lymphatic neurological adrenal
Leya [2.2K]

Most fat-soluble nutrients are absorbed in the Lymphatic system.

<h3>What is Lymphatic System?</h3>

A network of tissues, veins, and organs known as the lymphatic system collaborates to transport lymph, a colorless, watery fluid, back into your circulatory system (your bloodstream).

Your body's arteries, smaller arteriole blood vessels, and capillaries each day carry about 20 liters of plasma. About 17 liters are then returned to the circulation through veins after providing nourishment to the body's cells and tissues and collecting their waste products. The remaining three liters permeate your body's tissues via capillaries. The lymphatic system gathers this extra fluid, which is now known as lymph, from your body's tissues and transports it to various locations before returning it to your bloodstream.

In the term trace element, the adjective trace means that
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The elemental is required in very small amount. (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Trace element is also known as micro-nutrient. It is also defined as any chemical element required by living organisms in a minute or small amounts which is usually part of the vital enzyme (cells produced by catalytic protein).

Exact needs of trace elements vary among species, like commonly required plant trace elements are cooper, zinc, manganese, boron, and molybdenum. Animals commonly required iodine, manganese, and cobalt.

Absence of necessary plant trace elements required by plants in the soil causes deficiency disease, lack of animal trace elements used by animals in the soil may not harm plants, but, animals feeding on those plants develop their deficiency disease.

So, the adjective trace means that the elemental is required in a very small amount.
