The nervous system is the organized structure of nerve endings and cells called neurons. It runs throughout the body, and it's why we feel and respond to our circumstances, environment and life events the way we do. Anatomists classify the system structurally. It is organized and labeled as a bodily whole divided into two classified systems, one at the center of the system and the other making up its peripheral edges.

Well, there is the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal chord, and is responsible for the output of signals and processing of sensory etc. signals (ie. systemic control). The peripheral nervous system can be divided into the somatic nervous system, which controls voluntary movement and the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system can be divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches and is responsible for unconscious gland and organ function. The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for stress responses (such as exercise, fear, emotional duress), the parasympathetic branch is responsible for the control of resting functions (digestion, relaxation and sexual function). I hope that's enough detail. Cheers.

Answer:

A- A pH change can cause the enzyme to change its shape

Explanation:

A rise or fall in the pH of the medium from the optimum of pH 7 usually affect the enzymes' active sites of and therefore the shape and the rate of enzyme activity.

Assuming the pH is too low, the enzyme medium becomes acidic;Acidosis. The high Hydrogen ions concentration interacts with the R-groups of the amino acids moiety of the enzymes, this interaction affects the ionization of the R-groups, disrupting the ionic bonding holding these R-groups in shape.

This results in loss of the 3-Dimensional shape arrangements of the protein molecule and therefore of the active sites. Since active sites of enzymes determines the specificity of the enzymes substrate- complex to give enzyme-product complex, the catalytic activity of the enzymes decreases, the rate of reaction decreases,and products formation stops, and the reaction also stops.

The same is applicable to extremely high pH=Alkalosis.

However, the effective buffer system of the body prevents this scenarios from happening in real sense in the body. Through mopping by the haemoglobin, excretion by the kidney, etc

First of all, it needs a deposit of carbon. Then, mass amounts of pressure and heat will be applied to the deposit. Over time, the carbon turns into a crystal which is either burst out of a volcano or remains under the ground.

Aneli [31]

Prior to 1879, people who studied behavior associated themselves with biology.
In the past, it was thought that certain behaviors were only the result of biology. Those scientists assigned various mental disorders to problems within that person's body, when in fact, not all mental disorders come from biological problems.

What is the difference between a semi-permeable membrane (parchment paper, cellophane paper, etc.) and a differentially permeabl

WARRIOR [948]

Semi permeable membrane will allow something to pass through them and something not and it will allow on the basis of size particles
while differentialy permeable will include other factors also other than size and will depend on the need of the cell
this is the main difference between them
hope it helps

Answer:

Explanation:

What is Ozone? Ozone is a gas made up of three oxygen atoms (O3). It occurs naturally in small (trace) amounts in the upper atmosphere (the stratosphere). Ozone protects life on Earth from the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
