The corpus callosum, a tight region of axons (whitematter), is the direct connection and thus communication between left and right hemispheres.
A "split-brain" could result from disruption of or damage to the corpus callosum, either in part or whole.

Answer:

severance of the corpus callosum.

Explanation:

The corpus callosum is a white-colored brain structure that connects the two hemispheres (right and left) of human brains. This connection established by the corpus callosum is extremely important, as the two hemispheres work together. It is due to the separation of the corpus callosum that we can see that the brain is divided into two hemispheres.

The corpus callosum is formed by several bundles of communication neural fibers (set of axons and dendrites). It is located in the central region of the human brain, where these beams pass from side to side.

aliina [53]

Answer:

The plant types suitable during that period would be ferns, horsetails, and lycopods.

Explanation:

A geologic period and system, which covers 60 million years from the termination of the Devonian period to the start of the Permian period is known as the Carboniferous period. During the Carboniferous period, the plant life was luxuriant and extensive, mainly at the time of Pennsylvanian. It comprises ferns and fernlike trees, that is, the giant horsetails known as club mosses, calamites, or lycopods like Sigillaria and Lepidodendron.  

Thus, if humans had been present to construct log structures during the Carboniferous period, then they would have used logs of ferns, horsetails, and lycopods for construction work.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Membrane bound cell organelles

Explanation:

A prokaryotic cell lacks a membrane defined nucleus and all the membrane-bound organelles. A eukaryotic cell has a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, Golgi apparatus, etc.

To determine if a cell is a prokaryotic or eukaryotic, one can look for the nucleus and the membrane-bound organelles. If the cell has a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, it is a eukaryotic cell. The absence of these structures makes it a prokaryotic cell.
