  • The desert and tundra are alike because they both have limited available water.
  • The tundra biomes are characterized by very low temperatures due to which the ground is permanently covered by a layer of ice and this is known permafrost.
  • The desert biomes are characterized by a very low average rainfall of less than 25 cm per year and they have a hot and dry climate.
  • Both Tundra and desert biomes have water scarcity as the in the tundra the permafrost does not allow the water to percolate into the ground and in the desert, the amount of rainfall is very less.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Blood Brain Barrier(BBB)

Explanation:

This is a biological interface of special endothelial cells of astrocytes, pericytes , capillaries,  neurons and other  structures, acting as a physical barrier or  gate separating the Central Nervous system from the peripheral  blood circulations. Thus it  formed a tight junction serving as a  physical barrier to  selectively regulate the entrance of substances from the   cerebral blood flow   into the brain,  therefore maintaining homeostasis of the brain.

From above any  substances  absorbed into the blood stream  irrespective of the mode of entry  are transported through  the BBB, and  are selectively  regulated to enter the brain cells by the BBB's   interactions with the blood vessels, hormones etc.

Basically it allows the passage of nutrients,  a few  drug, hormones and resists certain toxins and pathogens for the brain homeostasis.

When the sign occurs, the animal starts a sequence of acts in response to the stimulus and continuous until the series of actions is completed.

The black feathers resembling a mustache in a <em>Northern flickers</em> male are an external sensory stimulus. This trait that can provoke another male to respond aggressively, as a f<em>ixed action pattern</em>.  

This trait might be considered as an <em>unconditioned stimulus</em>, which <em>provokes an unlearned or reflex reaction</em>. These aggressive responses are triggered by reflex.
