Bas_tet [7]2 years ago
6 0

The opening in the cranial cavity where the spinal cord connects to the brain is the foramen magnum.

The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord. Foramen in anatomy refers to an opening. Foramen magnum is the opening in the cranial cavity through which the brain and the spinal cord establish a connection. It is a large opening in the occipital bone which forms the back and the base of the skull and enclircling the spinal cord. Through the foramen magnum passes the medulla oblongata and its membranes, nerves and the arteries.

What type of reasoning is used in this example?
brilliants [131]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The reasoning used is <u>inductive reasoning</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The type of reasoning where the examples are used to derive conclusion it is called as inductive reasoning. The end is the theory or plausible. This implies the end is the piece of thinking that inductive thinking is attempting to demonstrate. Inductive thinking is likewise alluded to as 'circumstances and logical results thinking' or 'base up thinking' since it looks to demonstrate an end first. This is normally gotten from explicit occasions to build up a general end.

As the given examples quotes many examples of desert and then derives conclusion out of it, this is considered as example of inductive reasoning.

The probability of a ___________ channel being open is controlled by the membrane potential.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

(b) Voltage gated

Explanation:

The cell membrane acts as a barrier that separates two aqueous media of different composition, the extracellular and the intracellular, regulating its composition. Most of the liposoluble drugs and solutes, when not ionized, directly cross the cell membrane through a passive diffusion process, which facilitates the passage of the medium where it is more concentrated to the one that is more diluted. The difference in concentration between the two media is called the concentration gradient, and diffusion will continue until this gradient is eliminated. According to Fick's law, the speed of this process will be much faster the higher the concentration gradient and the liposolubility of the molecule and the smaller its size.

More hydrophilic molecules, such as ions, are immiscible in membrane lipids and pass through specific specific transport mechanisms. In some cases, ions pass through hydrophilic pores called ion channels, and in others a favor of their concentration gradient is transported by binding to the transporter or transporter proteins. Both transport systems are passive and therefore do not consume energy. The great advantage is that the ion channels allow the flow of ions through a much higher speed than that of any other biological system. The flow of ions through each channel can be measured as an electric current, which is capable of producing rapid changes in membrane potential.

ATP is used as a method of...
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

A. converting chemical energy into a food.

This process is known as phosphorylation. Glucose can be converted into Glucose-6-phosphate by the addition of the phosphate group from ATP. ATP serves as the biological energy company, releasing energy for both anabolic and catabolic processes and being recharged by energy generated from other catabolic reactions.

Explain why the process of mitosis is important to you eukaryotic <br> organisms
vichka [17]

The eukaryotic organisms have the process of mitosis but differently than the process of the prokaryotic because the prokaryotic organisms dont have the dna enclosed in a nucleus. Mitosis needs to occur in eukaryotic organims because the cell could keep growing an it is going to be less efficient in moving material across the cell membrane. They reason why mitosis happens is because volume and surface are do not increase at the same rate.
