Describe the route of a reflex impulse in the somatic system

Biology
1 answer:
Sholpan [36]3 years ago
8 0
Take for example - you touching something sharp and instantly moving your hand away.

Sensory neurons in your fingers detect the external stimuli of the sharp object and send a nerve impulse to the spinal cord (does not reach brain) and is sent back to a motor neurone - attached to an effector that moves the muscle and moves the hand away. This is a rapid reflex action and involuntary.

If a sample of air contains 1 g/kg of water vapor and has a relative humidity of 25 percent at -5 degrees Celsius how much water
guapka [62]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

As we know that

Relative humidity (RH) is defined as the ratio of amount of water vapor present in a given sample of air to the maximum amount of water that can be  absorbed by the same sample of air to attain saturation  at a particular temperature .

Thus,

RH = \frac{X}{Y} \\

Where X represents the current amount of water vapor present in a given sample of air

and Y represents the maximum amount of water that can be  absorbed by the same sample of air to attain saturation  at a particular temperature

Substituting the given values in above equation we get -

0.25 = \frac{1 g/Kg}{Y} \\Y = \frac{1 g/Kg}{0.25} \\Y = 4 g/Kg

Hence, option C is the correct answer

A tree grows in an environment where there are generally four or five years of severe drought followed by a rainy year. How will
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Dendrochronologists have shown that tree-ring data produce a remarkably accurate history of droughts and other climate changes.

Explanation:

The underlying patterns of wide or narrow rings record the year-to-year fluctuations in the growth of trees. The patterns, therefore, often contain a weather history at the location the tree grew, in addition to its age. In dry environments, such as the Middle East or U.S. Southwest, tree rings typically record wet or dry years, and in cooler areas (high latitudes or high elevation), the ring widths are often a proxy for temperature.

Here, Theresa comes up with four examples of waves: Sound wave, Ocean wave, Light wave, and Hand wave. But hand wave is not an acutal scientic wave. It is just movement of hands. There is no transfer of energy takes place. Hence, hand wave is not an actual scientific wave.
