There are two systems in the human body that are responsible for the coordination between the functions of different systems to achieve the unity of the living organism's body. These two systems are the nervous system and the endocrine system. The action of the nervous system is fast and takes a short time, while the action of the endocrine system is slow and takes a long time.
The functional unit of the nervous system is the nerve cell or the neuron. The neuron consists of a cell body and the axon. The cell body starts with the dendrites that receive the messages or the impulses from other neurons or from different sense organs or receptors. These impulses are then transmitted through the cell body. The cell body contains a nucleus and different organelles which help the nerve cell to perform its functions. The nerve impulse is then transmitted to the axon.
The axon is an extension from the cell body. There are some cells called Schwan cells that secrete a myelin sheath to insulate the axon from the surrounding medium. The insulated axons have more ability to conduct the impulses than non-insulated axons. The axon ends with the terminal arborizations. The terminal arborizations of a nerve cell connect to the dendrites of the next cell or to the afferent organ. The gaps between the dendrites and the terminal arborizations are called the synapses.
The nerve impulse is an electrochemical phenomenon i.e. an electrical phenomenon with a chemical nature. The membrane of the axon acts as a barrier between an outside positively charged medium and an inside negatively charged medium. This makes a potential difference of -70mV. This state is called the resting potential. When the membrane is subjected to a stimulus, the positive charges enter to inside and the negative charges exit to the outside. The potential difference now becomes +40mV. This state is called the depolarization state. The point of stimulation acts as a new stimulus for the next point and so on. The membrane sooner gains its permeability again and the positive charges return to the outside and the negative charges to inside. This state is called repolarization.
The nerve impulse reaches the synapse. There are some neurotransmitters that are excited by the nerve impulse coming and carry the message across the membrane. Some receptors receive theses neurotransmitters on the dendrites of the next neuron. These receptors act as a stimulus for the new cell.
<span>Decomposers break down dead
or decaying organisms, and in doing so, convert their basic materials
into forms more useful to the biological community, particularly plants.
The main decomposers in the environment include bacteria, fungi and
worms. Each of these plays a different, but overlapping, role in
decomposition</span>
Answer:
Sun
Sun is the main source of energy on earth. About 40% light reach to the atmosphere some of which is filtered by ozone layers, water vapours and other gases. only 1% light is used in photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis
Producers contain chloroplast filled with chlorophyll molecules. when sunlight falls on leaves process of photosynthesis occurs which convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
Respiration
Respiration occurs both in producers and consumers. in this process chemical energy (glucose) is converted into ATP, NADH and FADH2.
Decomposition
there are some organisms known as decompose s. they decompose dead bodies of plants and animals and convert complex molecules into simple nutrients with help of energy. in this way sun light energy is transferring in ecosystem in different forms.

Well to find the answer for force, the formula is mass X acceleration.
So, 20m/s² X 0.5kg = 10kg-m/s².
But, because we measure force in Newtons, we have to change the units (kg/m/s²) to Newtons.
1N (newton) equals to 1kg-m/s² and because we had 10, your answer is
10N
Answer:
Neutralization Reaction
Explanation:
Reaction is the name given to this type of reaction in which soluble salts can be made by mixing acids and alkalis.
