Answer:

The treelike fibers that receive information and send it toward the neuron's cell body are called Dendrite

Explanation:

Dendrite:- They are tree like projections generally the extension of nerve cell which helps in the transmission of nerve impulses or electrochemical stimulation from one neuron to another. It is also known as dendrons. For neurons to become active they need some action potential, these action potentials are received in the form of nerve impulses or electrochemical stimulation by dendrite and is been stored in the cell body, or soma, of the neuron. Dendrites are covered by synapses (Structure that permit neural transmission).

(f) contact a local hospital and ask them the percentage of the population that is blood type o. why might the results differ?

Fudgin [204]

Contacting a local hospital and asking them the percentage of the population that has blood type O will generate different results.

The factors that we have to consider why there is differing results are:
1) location of the hospital
2) nationality of their patients
3) number of their patients

I am assuming that the population that question is referring to is the number of patients in the local hospital. The bigger the population, the smaller the effect a unit has on the whole and vice versa.

I read an article that states that 37% of the U.S. population has O+ blood type. These people are usually of Hispanic descent or some Asian descent. So, if a hospital is in a locality that has a majority of Hispanic or Asian patients, its percentage will be higher than a hospital that is located in a Caucasian-populated area.

Aside from Type O+ (most common), blood types also include: O-, A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+, and AB- (rarest blood type)

Why is tall grass prairie north america's rarest biome? historically it only occurred in a very tiny region of north america. be

OLEGan [10]

The answer is - because over 90% of this biome has been converted to agriculture.

This biome has been much larger before the development of the agriculture in this part of the USA, but because this biome provided large territories with deep fertile soil and predominantly lowland areas, people started using it for agriculture because it was the most suitable for that. So little by little, the biome was declining and more and more of it was becoming agricultural land.
