Limitations of Correlations
Correlation is not and cannot be taken to imply causation. Even if there is a very strong association between two variables we cannot assume that one causes the other. For example suppose we found a positive correlation between watching violence on T.V. and violent behavior in adolescence.
An important limitation of correlational research designs is that they cannot be used to draw conclusions about the causal relationships among the measured variables. Consider, for instance, a researcher who has hypothesized that viewing violent behavior will cause increased aggressive play in children
Physical therapy is the biggest area of speciality for physicians.
Answer: Motor neuron effector
If you accidentally touch hot surface, you automatically
pull your hand away from the object and this response is governed by a simple
combination of neurons called reflex arcs. The sensory neurons carriers the
impulse towards the central nervous system (CNS) then the interneuron carries
these impulses within the CNS, while the motor neuron carries impulse away from
CNS. Therefore, motor neuron is the last structure to respond to a reflex.
Answer:
1. spontaneously
2. resting potential
3. action potentials
4. pacemaker potentials
5. K+
6. Na+
7. into
8. Ca+
Explanation:
Pacemaker cells (also known as sinoatrial node cells) are cells that generate rhythmic impulses and set the pace for blood pumping in the heart. These cells have the ability to rhythmically depolarize and initiate action potentials. In pacemaker cells, Ca2+ and Na+ levels are higher in the extracellular environment, while K+ concentration is higher intracellularly. The pacemaker action potentials have three phases: 1-depolarization, where membrane potential reaches -40 mV and voltage-gated Ca2+ channels open, 2-repolarization, where voltage-gated Ca2+ channels close and voltage-gated K+ channels open, and finally 3-gradual depolarization, which is caused by the slow influx of Na+ ions.
