Answer:

Seven segments

Explanation:

As given in the question -  

After every  twenty microseconds one reaction occurs i.e breakdown of polysaccharides.  

This means that after every  twenty microseconds the polysaccharides is broken down  

The total time for this hydrolysis reaction is  120 micro seconds

Thus , there will be six phases of division each after every  twenty microseconds

After 1st  twenty microseconds , total segments is equal to two

After 2nd  twenty microseconds , total segments is equal to three

After 3rd  twenty microseconds , total segments is equal to four

After 4th twenty  microseconds , total segments is equal to five

After 5th twenty  microseconds , total segments is equal to six

After 6th twenty microseconds , total segments is equal to seven

vekshin1

Because neurones will not function properly neither will neuroreceptors if a person lacks neurotransmitters, these two parts (transmiters and receptors) all work together and depend on eachother.

Neurones are resposible for transmitting informations trought the body, and if neurotransmitters are no-existent, information may not be able to get to some body parts since neurotransmitters transmit the information.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
