The cytoplasmic extensions that, together with the cell body, provide the main receptive surfaces for neurons are the
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- D.

Explanation:

Neurons are the cells which help in the transmission of the signals to and fro from the CNS and PNS to the body and vice versa. The structure of the neurons is divided into three main parts: the axon, dendrites and the cell body. The dendrites and axons are the extensions of the cell cytoplasm and together constitutes the neurites.  

The dendrites are the extensions of the cytoplasm which receives the signals either from the cell surface as well as the from the post-synaptic neurons and further process the signals.

Thus, option- D is the correct answer.

Most ATP generated during the cellular respiration of glucose is made by oxidative phosphorylation. true or false
chubhunter [2.5K]

it is True that Most ATP generated during the cellular respiration of glucose is made by oxidative phosphorylation.

  • From one glucose molecule that has been transformed into pyruvate, the Krebs's cycle generates 24-28 ATP molecules.
  • Pyruvate enters the citric acid cycle under aerobic conditions and proceeds through oxidative phosphorylation, which results in the net synthesis of 32 ATP molecules.
  • The inner membrane of the mitochondria contains a number of chemical compounds and proteins that make up the electron transport chain.
  • In a sequence of redox reactions, electrons are transferred from one component of the transport chain to another.
  • In these processes, energy is released as a proton gradient, which is then utilized to produce ATP through a process known as chemiosmosis.
  • Oxidative phosphorylation is a process that involves both chemiosmosis and the electron transport chain.

Select the correct statement about blood flow. A) It is relatively constant through all body organs. B) It is measured in mm Hg.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The correct option is (D). The value of cardiac output in the case of the human heart is approx. 5 liters in a minute. The multiplication product of heart rate and stroke volume gives the cardiac output.  

Explanation:

The blood flow serves as the parameter for the calculation of cardiac output. For the restoration of homeostasis, increase or decrease in the cardiac output leads to the simultaneous increase and decrease in the blood flow and pressure respectively. Also, the reduction of cardiac output and venous return signifies the higher value of the tidal volume. The associated parameters namely stroke volume and  heart rate is also affected by certain factors. Some of them includes age, gender, contractility, heart size and duration of contraction.  

Besides the flow of blood in the body depends on the oxygen requirement of the target cell.
