The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Question: Impulses originating in the part of the brain called the medulla would most directly affect which body structure?

a. A leg muscle

b. A ligament

c. An arm bone

d. The heart

Answer:

d. The heart

Explanation:

The medulla oblongata contains a number of reflex centers for regulating vital body functions such as heartbeat, breathing, and vasoconstriction. The medulla contains several nuclei, a collection of neuronal cell bodies.

For example, impulses originated in the cardiovascular center regulates the rate and force of the heartbeat and the diameter of blood vessels. Impulses from the cardiovascular center flow along sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons. An increase in sympathetic stimulation from the cardiovascular center of medulla increases heart rate and contractility while a decrease in sympathetic stimulation decreases heart rate and contractility.

Name two nutrients that plants need.
artcher [175]

Answer:

Sunlight and water.

Explanation:

The sun is the plant's most important nutrient. Plants convert sunlight into sugars in order to grow. Water is needed in two ways, it serves as both a solvent for mineral salts that are carried inside plant cells, and it is an essential component of photosynthesis. The questioner might have asked "name one" so they don't have enough information to answer with any greater certainty - but the answer remains the same regardless of how many nutrients they ask about.

Minerals are also required by plants in order to function properly including calcium, potassium, iron, magnesium just to name a few minerals which are found in healthy nutritious produce!
