Answer:

The correct options are (c) and (d).

Explanation:

The assumptions made before using a t-distribution for a hypothesis test are:

The scale of the data should be continuous or ordinal.
The sample selected should be a simple random sample.
The data selected should follow a normal distribution or form a bell-shaped curve when plotted.
The sample selected must be large enough so that when plotted a normal distribution curve is formed.
Homogeneous variance exists so that the standard deviations of the samples are approximately equal.

A sample size of 5 a sample size of 50 sample will not be accurate for a t-test because on of the sample size is, 5.

This sample size is very small and when plotted will not follow a normal distribution.

The sets that differed in variance will not be accurate for a t-test because for using a t-test homogeneity of variances is assumed.

Thus, the correct options are (c) and (d).

After nervous stimulation stops, calcium ions returning to the sarcoplasmic reticulum prevent ACh in the synaptic cleft from con

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Neurotransmitter release occurs from the nervous terminal or varicosities in the neuronal axon. When an action potential reaches the nervous terminal, the neurotransmitter is released by exocytose. The molecule binds to its receptor in the postsynaptic neuron, triggering an answer. As long as the signal molecule is in the synaptic space, it keeps linking to its receptor and causing a postsynaptic response. To stop this process the neurotransmitter must be taken out from the synaptic space. There are two mechanisms by which the neurotransmitter can be eliminated:

• Enzymatic degradation/deactivation: There are specific enzymes in the synaptic space, which are in charge of inactivating the neurotransmitter by breaking or degrading it. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase prevents ACh from continuing to stimulate contraction.

• Reuptake: Receptors located in the presynaptic membrane can capture de molecule to store it back in new vesicles for posterior use. These transporters are active transport proteins that easily recognize the neurotransmitter.

Mechanical Weathering is the process of breaking big rocks into smaller rocks, during this process, no new substances are made. The rock gets smaller but it's still the same rock.

What is an endotherm? how do sweating, fur, and feathers affect the body temperatures of endotherms?

Anton [14]

1. What is an endotherm?
Endotherm is an animal that keeps their temperature constant in a certain range. Keeping temperature is important because most enzyme has an optimal working range. By keeping the temperature at optimal range for the enzyme, the organism can do metabolism more efficient.

2. how do sweating, fur, and feathers affect the body temperatures of endotherms?
The environments temperature should influence the temperature of an organism that lives within it. Endotherms need to control their temperature, so they have some mechanism to increase/decrease the body temperature. or to insulate themselves from the environment.
Sweating help decreasing temperature makes the organism can withstand hot environment. Fur and feather will insulate the body, makes the organism more resistant to cold.
