Answer: DENDRITES and  AXON

Explanation:  Neuron are the functional units of nervous system. They are responsible for the conduct of action potential as nerve transmission from the Central nervous system of the brain and spinal cord to the effectors:

glands and muscles and vice versa.

Dendrites located in the cell body of neuron receive impulses, and send these to the axon which conduct these signals to the end terminals for Synapse with another neuron.

tthis process of conduct takes place as a result of movement of ions across the membranes of the axon.

True or false: scientists believe that over grazing and inappropriate farming techniques can make the air above the ground drier
krok68 [10]

Answer: The statement is true.

Overgrazing happens when the animals or livestock feed on pasture when there is no vegetation present. Overgrazing has devastating impact on the environment as drought can strike any time and lack of precipitation means that farming in that area will also be impacted. The amount of rain received is not under the control of farmers and when the drought conditions extend the replenishment of pasture will not happen. Lack of precipitation will cause the plants to die and eventually the livestock feeds on the available plants to survive.

Plants, trees or crops help in increasing the amount of rainfall by the process of transpiration which is a process in which plants loose water as vapours during the photosynthesis. This water released by the plants increases the moisture content of air making the air saturated and brings about rainfall.

PLs helpwhat factors influenced the survival of humans during the Bubonic Plague?
Valentin [98]
The Great Famine of 1315-1317 and subsequent malnutrition in the population likely caused weakened immunity and susceptibility to disease. Medieval doctors thought the plague was created by air corrupted by humid weather, decaying unburied bodies, and fumes produced by poor sanitation.
