Answer:

Fission Hypothesis

Explanation:

This theory proposes that the Moon was once part of the Earth and somehow separated from the Earth early in the history of the solar system. The present Pacific Ocean basin is the most popular site for the part of the Earth from which the Moon came.

This theory was thought possible since the Moon's composition resembles that of the Earth's mantle and a rapidly spinning Earth could have cast off the Moon from its outer layers.

However, the present-day Earth-Moon system should contain "fossil evidence" of this rapid spin and it does not. Also, this hypothesis does not have a natural explanation for the extra baking the lunar material has received

Answer:

There are many receptors for thyroxine on different target cells (tissues), so its effect can be huge

Explanation:

Target cell for a certain hormone is a cell that have hormone receptor specific for that hormone. There are two main types of receptors on target cell:

  • cell membrane receptors (also called  trans membrane receptors)-usually for peptide hormones, such as insulin
  • intracellular receptors (also called nuclear receptors)-usually for steroid hormones, such as testosterone.

Hormone binding to the receptor leads to the signal cascade within the cell, which results in cell response.

Receptors for thyroid hormones are nuclear receptors.

Located on the basilar membrane are(is) the ________, containing hair cell sensory receptors for the sense of hearing.
mojhsa [17]

Located on the basilar membrane are(is) the <u>organ of Corti</u><u> </u>containing hair cell sensory receptors for the sense of hearing.

The organ of Corti is also called basilar papilla which is a complex form of neuroepithelium composed of hair cells sensory receptors and supporting cells. In addition to these sensory and supporting cells, the organ of Corti also consists of a tectorial membrane. Endolymph which is a potassium-rich fluid surrounds the organ of Corti. The organs known as scala tympani and scala vestibule are present under and above the basilar papilla respectively.

The function of the organ of Corti is to generate electrical signals based on the sounds and transmit these signals to the brainstem through the passage of auditory nerves.

Anettt [7]

The mudflows are very dangerous and they have a great destructive power. They appear after a heavy rainfall on places that are steep. The mudflows are very fast and sudden occurrences, so usually people are caught unprepared. A mudflow is a mixture of water and lot of ground/mud, and all sorts of debris, which also contributes to it to be more dangerous.
