Answer:

CNS includes the brain and spinal cord which analyze sensory inputs, whereas PNS consists of neurons and nervous tissues that carry the information.

Explanation:

The nervous system has two distinct main parts - the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and the central nervous system (CNS).

CNS contains the spinal cord and the brain serves the nervous system's command center. the spinal cord and the brain analyze sensory inputs what it exactly means and quickly orders the body parts that time to move faster.  

PNS consists of the nerves, which leave the brain and the spinal cord and travel to evident regions of the body. The main job of PNS is to send information collected by the sensory receptors to the CNS.

Explanation:

When the blood ca+ concentration falls below  the standard of 4.4-4.5mg/dL,that is below 4.4mg/dL the clinical condition is called hypocalcemia. It is caused by hypothyroidism,due to  malfunction of the parathyroid gland.

Generally, Ca+ is needed for contraction of muscles by causing the fusion of the vesicles containing neurotransmitters to the presynaptic membrane for the passage of neuro transmitters  to fuse with the receptors on the sarcolemma to initiate  muscular contractions by opening of ligand gated Na+. It also interact with the ligand gated  sodium ion channels

Generally,Ca+ inhibits depolarization of ligand gated Na+ channels. Thus blocks the opening of these channels and therefore the rate of excitability.Therefore, If the is low serum levels of Ca+,There is increased in the threshold of depolarization because more ligand gated Na+ channels are opened,Thus their is increased excitability of nerves and muscles fibres therefore in the  clinical manifestations listed above.

It can be treated with infusion of Ca+ into the blood.

there are relatively few different types of macromolecular monomers. What is an advantage of constructing protein and carbohydra
Delicious77 [7]

The main advantage of monomers or basic subunits of macromolecules is their simplicity. The simple monomeric subunits from which all proteinsnucleic acids, fats and carbohydratesare constructed are few in number and identical in all living species.These simple monomerc units can be linked in many different combinations (different covalent bonds) to produce complex biological polymers with different functions.
