Which of the following statements is the most correct regarding homeostatic imbalance? A. It is considered the cause of most dis
AfilCa [17]

Answer:  C. Positive feedback mechanisms are overwhelmed.

Explanation:

Homeostasis, is the maintenance of a normal internal environment, in the face of external and internal disturbances, so that the functions of cells and systems of the body are preserved. This is accomplished primarily through feedback systems, so when a system is disturbed, a diversity of local responses, systemic reflexes (rapid reactions and automatic stimuli) and long-term adjustments are activated to bring the system back to its normal equilibrium point.

Most systems are controlled by negative feedback mechanisms, with the controlled variable being able to "turn off" its release, in the same way as a thermostat controls the temperature of a room. So, in this context, too much positive feedback would be related to harmful effects, such as homeostatic imbalance.

gregori [183]

Answer: The answer is B- Diffusion of calcium ions through NMDA receptors.

Explanation:

Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a painful sensation experienced after the loss or amputation of a limb. The limb is no longer there but the individual can still feel real and severe pains in the limb. This occurs soon after surgery.

NMDA is a receptor for Glutamate which is an excitatory neurotransmitter. The activation of NMDA receptors are associated with hyperalgesia which is an abnormally heightened sensitivity to pain.

What is the life cycle for a goldfish?​
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The life cycle of a goldfish starts out as an egg. The female fish will lay about 25 eggs, but unfortunately only some grow up. The eggs usually hatch within 5 days and if you have a fish tank then you should take the adult fish out or else it may eat the eggs. After the egg hatches, it turns into a fry,(this is what a baby goldfish is called) Once they hatch, they will stay attached to the plants for two days, after that, you should start to feed them. Once they are not fry anymore, they turn into adult goldfish. If you take care of them properly, they could last up to 15 years! Once the fish are complete adults, they can lay eggs. The females rub up against plants and lays eggs while the male Goldfish sprays the eggs to make them fertilize and turn into fry.

What food chain is represented in the above food web?
fenix001 [56]
<span>B- tree > insect > frog> snake> hawk

The food chains are represented by organisms interconnected by red arrows that point in the direction of the one that's eating. So, the relation that is explicit by the arrow is that the organism from where the arrow departs is eaten by the organism where the arrow is pointing towards to. So, the food chain that can be observed accurately in the food web is: the tree is eaten by the insect, the insect is eaten by the frog, the frog is eaten by the snake, and the snake is eaten by the hawk.
