There will be loss of normal breathing rhythm

Explanation:

A brain tumor in the pons region of the hindbrain is called as the pontine tumor or pontine glioma.

The pons present in the hindbrain bridges the cerebral cortex and the medulla oblongata. The pons along with medulla oblongata and control the autonomic functions like breathing, heart rate, blood pressure.

The respiratory center of the human body is located within the brainstem region in the pons and medulla oblongata. These are present as medullary and pontine respiratory groups.

The pontine respiratory groups – pneumotaxic and apneustic centres.

When the respiratory centers are affected due to any brain injury or tumor the respiratory rhythm and rate and breathing pattern are affected.

Hence, a brain tumor in the pons region will lead to a loss of normal breathing rhythm.

Describe the cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus, and cytoplasm. which of these structures are you likely to find in a prokaryotic
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

you can see below

Explanation:

Basic Definitions:

Cell Membrane = the semi-permeable structure that surrounds the cell and keeps all of the cells organelles from exploding everywhere.

Cell Wall = the rigid 'armor' of the cell that surrounds it after the membrane. Usually made up of cellulose and ONLY found in plant cells.

Nucleus = A really dense organelle of the cell usually surrounded by two membranes. They contain and protect your genetic material. Basically everything that makes you, you.

Cytoplasm = The watery, salty, and protein filled 'soup' that fills the cell. All organelles float happily in this.

Now Specific Locations:

Eukaryotic cells

have plasma membranes

please mark me brainliest or mark me thanks at leat

only have cell walls if the cells are plants.

They do have a nucleus.

They have cytoplasm

Prokaryotic cells

have plasma membranes

cell walls are usually chemically complexed.

don't have a nucleus

have cytoplasm

Animal cells

only have the plasma membranes.

No cell wall

have a nucleus

have cytoplasm

Plant cells

have both the cell wall

and have a plasma membrane

have a nucleus

have cytoplasm

Answer:

Carbohydrates - monosaccharides

Proteins - amino acids

Nucleic acids - nucleotides

Lipids - fatty acids (hydrocarbon chains)

Explanation:

There are four major biological molecules called biomolecules in nature namely; carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. These four molecules form the bedrock upon which life is built. The biomolecules mentioned above are POLYMERS formed as a result of the combination of two or more simpler molecules called MONOMERS in a process called CONDENSATION.

The monomer of each polymeric biomolecule is as follows;

Carbohydrates - monosaccharides

Proteins - amino acids

Nucleic acids - nucleotides

Lipids - fatty acids (hydrocarbon chains)

Hi! guys help me please?​

Answer:

Nervous system: This systems helps the five sense organs (eyes, ears, nose, tongue, skin) which all contain nerves that send messages to the brain about what is happening. The brain produces a response which it sends via other nerves to the muscles.

Digestive system: This system helps to break down food into simpler substances so it can be used and absorbed into the body. It takes place in the alimentary canal (food tube), mainly in the stomach and small intestine. The digested food is absorbed into the blood.

Respiratory System: This system helps take in oxygen and removing waste carbon dioxide. Air enters the lungs by movement of the rib muscles and diaphragm. The oxygen is absorbed into the blood.

Reproductive system: This helps produce offspring. Eggs are produces by ovaries in a female and the sperm is produced in the testes of a male. They then try and fertilise the eggs.

Note:

Hope this helped <33
