The brain is divided into lobes that carry out different kinds of functions. There are 5 lobes in the brain:

1. Frontal lobe: Concentration, planning, problem solving, etc are the function performed by this region of the human brain.

2. Parietal lobe: Touch, pressure, taste and body awareness is processed by this lobe.

3. Temporal lobe: Long-term memory, hearing, emotions are processed in this lobe.

4. Occipital lobe: Sight is processed in this lobe.

5. Cerebellum: Coordination and balance, fine motor control are performed by this part of the brain.

The modern neuroscience has also confirmed the presence of brain waves like the alpha, beta, theta and gamma rhythm that sweep across the different lobes and regions of the brain. These waves are known to result from the collective activity of neurons in each of the regions. The brain waves are studied to check the activity of the regions that are coordinating together to carry out a particular type of task.

You will research major earthquakes and pick one to answer the following questions:

levacccp [35]

Research major earthquakes on google, or another website. I would go with question 1, Where is your earthquake? I would do the Haiti earthquake where the earthquake is in Haiti. Do more research on Google, because I cannot provide you with a link to an article because Brainly will not allow me to do so. Just research "major earthquakes" in Google and you will be good to go. Hope this helped!

Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are the two main physiological process which drives the life on Earth. Photosynthesis process leads to the synthesis of Glucose whereas Cellular respiration breakdown the Glucose molecule to form ATP molecules.

In plants, the photosynthesis process occurs in green leaves whereas cellular respiration occurs in every cell of the plant inside the mitochondria.

In the given question, the graph shows:

1. The absorption of oxygen till 6 am which is required during cellular respiration.

2. After 6 am, the level of oxygen production becomes more than oxygen absorption till 6 pm.

3. After 6 pm, no sunlight is available therefore photosynthesis does not occur. After this, the rate of cellular respiration increases that is oxygen is taken in.

Thus, Option-D is correct.
