Answer:
This is because of the fact that it causes changes in size, shape, metabolic activities as well as signal responsiveness of cells.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct option is a. "increased cortical mass, increased numbers of neurons, increased synaptic connections, increased neurotransmitter amounts, and increased myelination.
"
Explanation:
Rodents that have been raised in enriched environments were found to have thicker cerebral cortex containing approximately 25% more synapses in a study conducted by Mark Richard Rosenzweig. This increase in <em>synapses</em> implies in an increase in <em>neurons</em> and <em>neurotransmitters</em>, which also indicates an increase in <em>myelination</em>.
Answer:
1. Earth's temperature is maintained by re radiated infra red radiation by green green house gases and slightly by water vapors in atmosphere. These gases prevent heat from escaping to outer space, so are functionally comparable to glass panel of green house. Thus, this heating effect is referred to as green house effect. Carbon dioxide is a green house gas so increased amount of this gas in the atmosphere will result in increased atmospheric temperature and global warming.
2. Three sources of atmospheric carbon dioxide are:
- Volcanic eruption
- Respiration by plants and animals
- Decomposition of organic substance.
Explanation:
- <u>Overall rise in temperature </u>of the Earth due to excessive amount of green house gases in atmosphere that trap heat radiating from Earth's surface is called Global warming.
- Global warming can cause melting of ice caps, alteration of seasons, destruction of forest and increase in deserts.
- Green house gases include carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide, and nitrogen dioxide etc.
- Among all these gases Carbon dioxide is the major component that is responsible for global warming.
- Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere by burning of fossil fuels, volcanic eruption and respiration. But Burning of fossil fuels itself adds about 18 X 10¹² tonnes of CO₂ anually.
- Global warming has become a major environmental concern now and needs to be controlled immediately.
When the lac operon controls the expression of proteins in the E.coli cell that can break down lactose into two sugars, glucose and galactose. When lactose is present, it binds to the repressor that typically sits on the lac operon, changing the repressor's conformation such that it can no longer bind to the lac operon. Because of this, RNA polymerase can now transcribe the gene into mRNA, <span>which in turn is translated into the proteins that can break down lactose.</span>
It would be A because textbooks aren't updated for years so he will likely never find it there
