The myelin sheath on a neuron allows nerve impulses to be faster because

1 answer:

3 0

Axons with large diameters conduct impulse faster than those with small diameters. Also Myelinated axons conduct impulse faster than unmyelinated axons. Axons with the largest diameter are all myelinated, therefore they are capable of salatory conduction (Impulses jump from one myelinated node to another). The smallest diameter axons are unmyelinated, so their conduction is continuous.
I hope this helps. :) :)

The practice of leaving crop residue on the field between plantings to help prevent soil erosion is known as

Advocard [28]

The practice of leaving crop residues on the field in between planting seasons is known as conservation tillage.

<h3>Conservation tillage</h3>

Some soils are prone to erosion once they are directly exposed to the impact of precipitation.

After harvesting crops from a field, the crop residues are left on the field to prevent the direct impact of precipitation in cause erosion. The crop residue, in addition, adds to the organic matter of the soil after their decomposition.

Such a practice is known as conservation tillage.

Using what you know about cell communication, explain the difference between intercellular and intracellular communication

solniwko [45]

In biology, cellular communication is a term used to determine distinct kinds of methods of communication among the living cellulites. Of these intercellular communication signifies the communication between the cells. In this kind of communication, membrane vesicle trafficking plays an essential role in both humans and animals.

On the other hand, intracellular communication signifies towards the communication of the organelles in order to sustain cellular homeostasis.
