Answer:

Stem cell is the special type of cell that can differentiate to give any cells in the body. Cell therapy nowadays are using stem cell in order to replace damaged tissue.

Researchers are finding out ways to treat diseases like diabetes, Parkinson's, spinal cord injury and heart injury etc. These cells have the ability to repair damaged heart cells after a heart attack. They can also treat neurological problems.

In a food chain 200 kg of wheat is fed on by 18 kg of mice which in turn are eaten by 1kg of hawk. What is the percentage energy

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.1% of energy

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers absorb only 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is dissipated in the environment.

At each trophic level occurs an energy transfer to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.

If wheat transferred 10% of the energy to mice, and of that 10% mice transferred 10% of the energy to hawk, then the percentage of energy transferred from the first trophic level to the third equals 0.1%.

10% (1st TL-2nd TL) / 10% (2nd TL - 3rd TL) = 0.1% (1stTL - 3rd TL)

TL = Trophic level

Pain signals often have two components: an acute sensation of "first pain" which is felt almost immediately after an injury, and

o-na [289]

Answer:

This suggests that neurons that send the signals that we perceive as first pain Myelinated Tpye A-delta___, and neurons that send the signals that we perceive as second pain Unmyelinated-Type C.___.

Explanation:

Physiologically, primary afferent neurons that innervated the the touch, pain, temperature,and pressure receptors in the effectors to input sensory signals to the spinal cord and the brain are categorized based on their diameter, sizes, and nature of myelination. Based on this;

A-alpha has the largest diameter, myelinated, and sensitive to sensation from the muscle cells

A-beta are next in diameter, myelinated and sensitive to sensation of touch.

A-delta followed in diameter, and size. They are mylinated, and sensitive to pain and temperature.

C-fibres are least in diameter, they are unmyelinated, but sensitive to pain, touch and temperature.

Therefore, if the speed of conduction,of action potential in a neuron depends on the diameter(thickness) and myelination of the axon(saltatory conduction) :

''then, acute sensation/ first pain should be transmitted by the A-delta fibre. While the the slower/second pain should be transmitted by the slower unmyelinated - C-fibres''.

The particles that make up matter always in what?

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The Kinetic Theory of Matter

The states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion. As a result, all particles in matter have kinetic energy. The kinetic theory of matter helps explain the different states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas.
