Answer:

The spinal cord functions primarily in the transmission of nerve signals from the motor cortex to the body, and from the afferent fibers of the sensory neurons to the sensory cortex.

Explanation:

Its three major roles are to relay messages from the brain to different parts of the body, to perform an action, to pass along messages from sensory receptors to the brain, and to coordinate reflexes that are managed by the spinal cord alone.

A Tomato Has A Proton Concentration Of 0.00006 M. How Would You Calculate The PH?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Option b. is correct

Explanation:

If hydronium ion concentration $H_3O^+$ is given then pH is given by $-log[H_3O^+]$

The hydronium ion refers to the hydrogen ion in aqueous solution.

A Tomato has A Proton Concentration Of 0.00006 M

Here, 0.00006 is equal to 6 × $10^{-5}$

So,

pH is given by - log [6 × $10^{-5}$ ]

Option b. is correct

Describe natural selection- when does natural selection occur?

sashaice [31]

Answer:

The process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. The theory of its action was first fully expounded by Charles Darwin, and it is now regarded as be the main process that brings about evolution.

Four conditions are needed for natural selection to occur: reproduction, heredity, variation in fitness or organisms, variation in individual characters among members of the population. If they are met, natural selection automatically results.

In two or more sentences, analyze why internal fertilization is more efficient than external fertilization?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Although more offsprings are produced by the process of external fertilization but the process of internal fertilization is more efficient as compared to external fertilization. This is because, in external fertilization, it is more difficult for the sperm to find the egg and fertilize it. Even after fertilization, it might be that the zygote gets eaten up by a predator. There are none such risks in internal fertilization. The zygote is protected during the internal fertilization which makes this process more efficient.
