AVprozaik [17]3 years ago

The diffuse expiratory wheezing occurs when a person exhales. The expiratory wheezing can be heard easily, and it occurs because of the mild obstruction in the airway. The respiratory distress occurs when the fluid is filled in the air sac in the lungs. The patient is given beta 2 agonist to control the symptoms, as it causes the dilation of the smooth muscles present in the bronchial passage. But since, the dilation is not helping the patient in controlling the wheezing, following the protocol, she should be given 1;1000 epinephrine SC.

Neurotransmitters are ________. Group of answer choices chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another n
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron

found only in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord)

Explanation:

Neurotransmitters are defined as the chemicals that is transported from a nerve cell across the synaptic gap to the receptor of another neuron or a target cell such as a gland cell or a muscle cell.

Neurotransmitters are generated in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and are stored in synaptic vesicles.

"Hence, the correct answer is:

chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron

found only in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord)".

What term describes the rising and sinking of the lithosphere as material is added or removed?
Margaret [11]
<span>Composition. (We use the crust-mantle-core terminology to describe differences in chemical composition in Earth's interior. We use the lithosphere- asthenosphere terminology to describe differences the physical state and behavior. Note that the boundaries between layers with different compositions do not occur at the same depths as the boundaries between layers with different physical properties. For example, there is a change in composition when passing from crust into mantle. But there is no change in physical state or behavior at this boundary- the uppermost part of the mantle behaves in the same way that the crust does because it is still far enough below its melting temperature to be a rigid, brittle solid. The transition to a softer, more pliable solid occurs further down within the mantle and this change in behavior occurs with no change in composition.)</span>

Epinephrine has to cross the cell membrane to bind to its receptor in the cytoplasm. True or False
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The statement is false.

Explanation:

Epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is a hormone and a neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal glands, it helps to regulate cellular energy metabolism and increases the heart rate.

Epinephrine adheres to certain receptors that are exposed on the surface of a large number of body cells. This receptor, called beta-adrenergic, is a receptor that is embedded in the plasma membranes of these cells. Adrenaline does not penetrate the cell, instead, joining for a short period of time to its receptor, induces it to release biochemical signals to the cytoplasm of cells. This steric change, affects the configuration of the cytoplasmic domain of the protein, this is the "link" of the receptor that protrudes in the cytoplasm.

Which ecosystem has more biodiversity EXPLAIN!
Gekata [30.6K]
The two richest ecosystems lie in tropical rainforests and coral reefs. On land, tropical rainforests contain many species variation with an abundance of species in bird, mammals, amphibians, and plants. While tropical rainforests occupy only 7 percent of the Earth’s land area, they contain over half of the world’s species. This may be because species richness tends to increase with decreased elevation, increasing solar exposure, and increased precipitation; that is, hot, rainy low-land areas have the most species. In contrast, deserts have low species variation because of low precipitation. On earth, water is majorly important the equation for life. Many of the species are genetically isolated because of habitat size and variation in the build of the land (mountains, equator location, etc) such as seen in the Galapagos islands and the Amazon rainforest, both near and in South America.

Hope this helps!
