Answer:

The differences are given below ↓

Nervous System

Electrical impulses are the messengers in the nervous system
Brain and the spinal cord constitute the nervous system
Nerve impulses are transmitted through neurons
The nervous system is under both voluntary and involuntary control
Nerve impulses make use of the neurotransmitters at synaptic clefts and sodium and potassium channels and enter the target cells
Responses are localised

Chemical (Endocrine) System

Hormones are the chemical messengers in the endocrine system that target cells through the bloodstream
Glands and organs like thyroid, pituitary glands and reproductive organs (ovaries and testes) are involved in the endocrine system
Hormones are transmitted through blood vessels
The endocrine system is under involuntary control
The hormones enter into the target cells by diffusing through the plasma membrane or by binding to the cell receptors
Responses are widespread

The shells of clams and other mollusks _____. dissolve when the pH becomes more basic dissolve when the pH becomes more acidic m

Juliette [100K]

The correct answer is that the shells of clams and other mollusks dissolve when the pH becomes more acidic.

This is because the shells of clams and other mollusks are made of calcium carbonate that is dissolved in acidic conditions. The pH needs to be low to dissolve calcium carbonate into it. It takes few days to dissolve the shell completely.

1. What might cause an increase or decrease of carbon dioxide in a given location such as in the atmosphere or buried under grou

AVprozaik [17]

1. The carbon-dioxide increases in atmosphere by fossil-fuels, decaying-dead, automobiles etc. and when animals or plant die they get buried and carbon content increases under the ground.

2. Greenhouse gas are those gases which trap heat in the atmosphere and maintain the temperature of the earth.

3. Diamond and graphite are solid forms of carbon.

4. Dry ice is the carbon as liquid.

5. Autotrophs make simple sugar glucose via photosynthesis and this sugar is used by heterotrophs as a substrate for respiration in the presence of oxygen.

Explanation:

When the fuels from automobiles, fossil-fuel, dead decaying organism release carbon in the atmosphere, the increase in carbon dioxide is the cause of global warming.

Greenhouse gases absorb the infrared radiations from the earth's surface and reradiate it back to the atmosphere. In short greenhouse gases allow sun's rays to pass through and maintain the earth's temperature otherwise the earth will become too cold to sustain lives.

A biologist pollinates a true-breeding yellow flower with pollen from a true-breeding red flower of the same species. All of the

Xelga [282]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The question that can be answered with the F2 cross would be if the yellow flower color is dominant over the red flower color in the species. In other words, whether the inheritance of flower color follows a simple Mendelian inheritance or otherwise can be answered.

Assuming that the inheritance of the flower color follows the Mendelian pattern, the red flower trait would re-emerge among the F2 offspring and the ratio of yellow to red flower offspring would approximately be equal to 3:1. Otherwise, a more complex pattern of inheritance would be involved.
