Answer:
B: volcanic activity
D: fossil fuel consumption
Explanation:
Fossil fuel consumption and volcanic activity are the two factors that has a great influenced on the global temperatures. Fossil fuel consumption is a human activity and volcanic activity both releases carbondioxide gas while burning. This carbondioxide gas is a greenhouse gas which block the reflected solar radiation and leads to increase in the surface temperature of the earth.
Answer:
Option A
Option D
Option F
Explanation:
During the process of continuous starvation for a long period of time, the primary source of energy in body is hepatic gluconeogenesis which is responsible for producing endogenous glucose. Also lipolysis takes place in the adipose tissue to release fatty acid which is then converted into ketone bodies through though mitochondrial β oxidation and ketogenesis. The liver communicates with extrahepatic tissues, including adipose tissue and skeletal muscle and deliver glucose and ketone bodies to muscle and other extrahepatic tissues as fuels.
Hence, option A, D and F are true.
Answer:
Answered below
Explanation:
On piercing his foot, the pain receptors called nociceptors, found in the skin, are activated. Nociceptors exist at the nerve endings of the primary afferent neurons. Signals travel along the first order neurons which have cell bodies within the dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord. In the dorsal root ganglia, the signals are taken up at the synapse with the second order neurons which have cell bodies in the nuclei of the cranial nerves within the brainstem. These neurons ascend cranially in the spinothalamic tract to the thalamus. The third order neurons lie within the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the thalamus. They terminate at the somatosensory cortex where the signals are being processed and returned as a sensation of pain.
