Answer:

sulcus

Explanation:

A sulcus is an indentation or depression in the brain that causes it to look like it  ridges or folds

Cerebral sulci and fissures are grooves between the adjacent gyri on the surface of the cerebral hemispheres.

Sulci can be basically can be divided into three basic function

limiting sulcus: This happens to  develop between areas differing in structure and function, for example central sulcus

axial sulcus: This develops along the axis of a rapidly growing/developing area (e.g. calcarine sulcus)

operculated sulcus: a sulcus may be between two structurally-different areas and a third sulcus may lie in its wall and does not appear on the surface (e.g. lunate sulcus)

In terms of impulse and momentum, why are air bags in automobiles a good idea
Inga [223]
During a car crash, the car decelerates extremely rapidly, so inertia causes you to move forward quickly. If there wasn't an airbag to slow you down, you might fly out the windshield.
The air bag increases impulse by increasing the time during which a force acts on you (impulse=force*time). This decreases your forward momentum, so you'll have a better chance of surviving.

What did Rutherford’s model of the atom include that Thomson’s model did not have?
Ksivusya [100]
Rutherford overturned Thomson's model in 1911 with his well-known gold foil experiment in which he demonstrated that the atom has a tiny and heavy nucleus. Rutherford designed an experiment to use the alpha particles emitted by a radioactive element as probes to the unseen world of atomic structure.
