<span>Ian Waterman was able to sense pain and temperature because his
spinothalamic pathway was intact, but could not feel touch and limb position because of damage to his
lemniscus pathway. </span>
The lateral spinothalamic tract is a sensory pathway which carries sensory information like pain and temperature to the brain, across the thalamus. Free nerve endings which are located in the peripheral tissues are sensitive to cell damage. Those are primary neurons and they pass the sensory signal. Primary neurons synapse with secondary which are located in the spinal cord (white matter). These secondary neurons will ascend through the brainstem, medulla oblongata, pons and midbrain, until synapsing in the ventroposteriorlateral (VPL) nucleus of the thalamus. From the thalamus, the information is sent to cortex (somatosensory cortex).
Posterior column-medial lemniscus pathway is ascending spinal tract, carrying sensory information to the brain (sensory pathway). It conducts localized sensations of fine touch, vibration and proprioception (position sense) from the skin and extremities (muscles) to the central nervous system (cerebral cortex).

Answer:
Answer is B. It did not reflect the actual evolutionary relationships among organisms very well.
Explanation:
The five-kingdom system of classification was initiated or formed by Robert H. Whittaker in 1969. And it involved the Kingdoms monera, fungi, protista, animalia and plantae.
This classification system was regarded as not so good because of placement of some certain organisms. For example, in the classification system, unicellular algae were put under the kingdom protista, when other multicellular organisms like algae were being classified under the kingdom Plantae.
Answer:
Ball A has more density.
Explanation:
Density is found using mass divided by volume. Let's say ball A has a mass of 6 grams, and ball B has a mass of 3 grams. If the volume for both is 1 mL, then ball A has more density.
