Answer:
If you tap your knee, the signal to act is carried via your somatic nervous system to the muscles in your knee. In contrast, the signals that pass via the autonomic nervous system are involuntary and act primarily to regulate your body's internal environment. This involuntary nerve system is further organized into three divisions. If you need a sudden burst of energy, your sympathetic nervous system is activated to help you act quickly. In contrast, if you are relaxing and conserving energy, then it is your parasympathetic nervous system that is primarily in action. The third division is your enteric nervous system which helps control the components of the digestive system.
Explanation:
Peripheral nervous system (PNS) is the nervous system that contains nerves and ganglia outside the central nervous system (CNS). PNS is divided into:
- somatic (voluntary) nervous system-controls the movements of the skeletal muscles
- autonomic (involuntary) nervous system-controls the smooth muscles and glands and thus it is the regulator of the major body functions. It is subdivided into tree groups:
- sympathetic ("fight and flight") system-responsible for stressful and active situations (but also in normal conditions)
- parasympathetic ("rest and digest") system-opposite to sympathetic, responsible for the maintenance of body's activities at rest.
- enteric nervous system-controls the function of the gastrointestinal tract.
No because it does not breath like us
Answer:
C.) Disruptive selection
Explanation:
Disruptive selection is also called as diversifying selection. Here, two or more extreme phenotypes are preferred over the intermediate phenotype. Since more than one phenotype is preferred here, the genetic diversity of the population increases over generations.
For example, in lobsters alpha males are able to successfully mate by using force. Smaller males can also sneak in alpha males's territory and successfully mate. Hence, both alpha males and small males will be preferred over medium sized males in lobsters increasing the overall genetic diversity of population.
An amino acid is the building block (or monomer) of proteins :)
Answer:
inherited traits that increase an organisms chance of survival , also determine an organisms niche
Explanation:
An adaptation is a variation , or genetic modification , that supports an organism , such as a plants or animals , endure in its environment
