A cholinergic crisis is characterized by the excessive stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system. Cholinergic crisis is an over-stimulation at a neuromascular junction due to an excess of acetylcholine, as a result of the inactivity of the Acetylcholine Esterase, which normally breaks down acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is the primary transmitter of the impulses within the parasympathetic nervous system, (the part of the autonomous system that contacts muscles, dilates blood vessels, among other functions.

Explain E.O. Wilson's theory of Island Biogeography as it applies to environments other than islands physically
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The theory of E.O. Wilson's theory of Island Biogeography was originally developed as island biogeography, to explain species richness of actual islands, surrounded by water.

It proposes that the number of species found in an undisturbed environment is determined by immigration and emigration. According to him, the species richness will be the same if this island will have an equal number of the immigration and extinction or emigration of species.

Somatic cells of roundworms have four individual chromosomes per cell. How many chromosomes would you expect to find in an ovum
andrezito [222]

Answer:

2 chromosomes

Explanation:

The cell of an eukaryotic organism like roundworm contains the Nucleus, which harbors the genetic material embedded in the chromosome. The number of chromosomes of that organism is contained in each cell.

Somatic cells, also called body cells, are all other cells asides sperm and eggs, that form the tissues and organs of an organism. Somatic cells are usually diploid i.e two sets of chromosomes from each parent. In this question, the roundworm has 4 chromosomes in its somatic cell.

The reproductive cells or sex cells (sperm and eggs) of an organism always result from meiotic division of specialized cells.

Since meiosis is a kind of division that results in cells with their chromosome number reduced by half (haploid), it therefore means that the ovum and sperm cell will be expected to contain 2 chromosomes each.

This way, when fertilization occurs (sperm and egg fusion), the resulting zygote, which will eventually develop into an adult organism, will have 4 chromosomes.
