It is true that Urban sprawl covers land once used for food production and destroys ecosystems. Many of the large cities that have come up were once fertile lands for irrigation or were big jungles. These jungles were cut down or the fertile lands destroyed to build cities and industries.
By the United States Census Bureau standards, a population of 1000 people define an urban area is completely false statement. As per the United States Census Bureau, more than 50000 people define an urban area.

The stage of spinal shock that follows spinal cord injury is characterized by a. absent spinal reflexes below the level of injur

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. absent spinal reflexes below the level of injury.

Explanation:

Spinal shock strictly refers to the neurological condition that occurs immediately after a spinal cord injury, in which the loss of not only motor and sensory functions occurs, but also the abolition of all reflexes below the injury (reflexes of muscular or myotatic stretching and cutaneous reflexes). There is also flaccidity, loss of reflexes. It is characterized by hypotension associated with cervical or upper thoracic spinal injuries. This characteristic shock results from the lesion of the descending sympathetic pathway in the spinal cord, producing a loss of vasomotor tone and sympathetic innervation of the heart. This causes vasodilation of the affected area with accumulation of blood and a decrease in venous return to the heart as well as cardiac output.
