How does neural transmission compare to endocrine signal transmission?

2 answers:

7 0

Hormones are chemicals from endocrine glands, and neurotransmitters are chemical signals from neurons. Hormones are electric impulses sent from endocrine glands, and action potentials are electric signals sent through neurons. Endocrine glands and neurons both send their messages through the bloodstream. Endocrine glands and neurons both use electrical signals. I think it might the both common is using electric signal. Most neurons have only one axon. An axon is the part of the neuron that transmits nerve signals away from the soma to other neurons ....Endocrine signaling occurs when endocrine cells release hormones that act on distant target cells in the body. Refer to textbook..

Neural transmission:
1) is transmitted by neurones.
2) quick response
3) involves neurones
4) short lived
5) may be voluntary or involuntary
6) usually localised

Endocrine signal transmission:
1) transmitted by blood
2) usually slow responses
3) involves hormones
4) may be short lived or long lived
5) involuntary
6) may affect more than one target organ

1. Answer;

It facilitates the movement of the fetus towards the pelvic girdle thus the child is born headfirst.

Explanation:

During labor the pelvic floor facilitates movement of the fetus towards the pelvic girdle by resisting the descent of the presenting part. This makes the fetus to rotate forwards and therefore results in majority of the fetus being born headfirst.

2. Answer;

Purple pushing lead to development of pelvic floor problems.

Explanation

;

Purple pushing involves the midwife instructing a woman to hold her breath for ten seconds while forcefully pushing down during a contraction.
in the second stage instead of waiting for the mother to feel the instant urge of pushing which lead to development of pelvic floor problems.

3. Answer;

Exercise can help to strengthen the abdominal muscles and reduce the appearance of diastasis recti.

Explanation;

By contracting transversal abs muscles they strengthen and pull the muscles inwards.
The diastasis recti reduce with time due since the rectus muscles come close to each other enabling a human being to live a normal life because flexion, bending and stability becomes easy.

4. Answer

Pelvic floor muscles
Stomach muscles
Abdominal muscles
Perineal muscles
Uterine muscles

Explanation

Abdominal muscles are stretched to their limit by term. They greatly decrease the ability to perform strong contraction.
Pelvic floor is vulnerable to muscular and neurological injury during labor and delivery.
Perineal muscle tightening strengthens the pubococcygeus muscle and increases its tone.

5. Answer and explanation;

Sports that can lead to falling down e.g. skating
Sports that may involve altitude change
Exercises that involve lying flat on your back
Exercises that involve holding o breath
Motionless standing

6. Answer

Yes

Explanation

;

Exercise maintains physical fitness, health and wellness aiding growth to the unborn since the mother gains enough strength and energy and there is proper blood flow.
Many pregnant women tend to gain weight which may lead to health difficulties for example struggling to breath. The pregnant lady is able to cope with labor and she is able to get back in shape after the baby is born.

7. Answer;

One is supposed to get up slowly and gradually to avoid dizziness.

Explanation;

Dizziness happens after a tiresome activity done continuously for a period of time thus one should get up slowly and gradually to avoid other injuries like falling endangering the life of the unborn child.

When analyzing data, which does the scientist look for?

sergeinik [125]

When analyzing data scientists look for patterns, that help them form predictions.

Patterns are rules that variations/characteristics follow, either in data or anything else patterns might be used for.

Example:

The fact that worms are found always 10 meters forom eachother (not true, it's an example) is a pattern, that will help you predict the location of the next worm.

if two parents whose blood types are both B produce a child that has blood type O, what can you say about the parents genotype?

gulaghasi [49]

Both parents would have to be heterozygous. Their genotypes would be either BO and BO, or IBi and IBi.
(Each parent has one B allele, and one O or 'no antigen' allele.)
