What is medulla oblongata ?
- Medulla oblongata, also called medulla, the lowest part of the brain and the lowest portion of the brainstem.
- The medulla oblongata is connected by the pons to the midbrain and is continuous posteriorly with the spinal cord, with which it merges at the opening (foramen magnum) at the base of the skull.
- The medulla oblongata plays a critical role in transmitting signals between the spinal cord and the higher parts of the brain and in controlling autonomic activities, such as heartbeat and respiration
- The medulla is divided into two main parts: the ventral medulla (the frontal portion) and the dorsal medulla (the rear portion; also known as the tegmentum).
- The ventral medulla contains a pair of triangular structures called pyramids, within which lie the pyramidal tracts.
- The pyramidal tracts are made up of the corticospinal tract (running from the cerebral cortex to the spinal cord) and the corticobulbar tract (running from the motor cortex of the frontal lobe to the cranial nerves in the brainstem)

Answer:
The correct answer is - per gram, the marathon runner's muscles would contain more myoglobin than the sprinter's muscles.
Explanation:
Marathon runners have smaller leg muscles and thinner quads and calves as marathon runners require slow-twitch muscles while in sprinters the fast-twitch muscle requires. Slow-twitch muscles of marathon runners have more amount of myoglobin, per gram than fast-twitch muscles.
Myoglobin acts as local oxygen storage that provides oxygen to the muscles in case of less oxygen supply than required temporarily and a marathon race is an intense exercise or activity that requires more oxygen.
<em>DNA</em><em> </em>is what carries the genetic code for living organisms it contained in the nucleus of cells.

In order to conduct a research you should have an dependent variable, independent variable and the control variable. so in order to study phototropism, then you should need sun light and the growth of the plant and you must have a control that why you need a dark room.
