kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

On piercing his foot, the pain receptors called nociceptors, found in the skin, are activated. Nociceptors exist at the nerve endings of the primary afferent neurons. Signals travel along the first order neurons which have cell bodies within the dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord. In the dorsal root ganglia, the signals are taken up at the synapse with the second order neurons which have cell bodies in the nuclei of the cranial nerves within the brainstem. These neurons ascend cranially in the spinothalamic tract to the thalamus. The third order neurons lie within the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the thalamus. They terminate at the somatosensory cortex where the signals are being processed and returned as a sensation of pain.

You are studying an animal and inject fluorescein, a fluorescent dye, into a single cell on the surface epithelium of the animal
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The cells are connected by gap junctions.

Explanation:

A gathering of protein channels, which permits small molecules and ions to move between the neighboring cells is termed as a gap junction. The protein channels that form gap junctions comprise two connexons, of which one is situated in the membrane of one cell that combines and aligns with the connexon of the adjacent cell.  

This association produces a spontaneous pathway, which permits the small molecules and ions to pass passively from one cell to another. The gap junctions are found in all the kinds of cells, however, they are not found in skeletal muscle, RBCs, and blood lymphocytes.  

Thus, the passing of the fluorescent dye from one cell to another shows that the two cells are connected with the help of gap junctions.

4. Which of the five classes of arthropods is the most diverse? Explain.
qaws [65]
<span>Insecta or Hexapoda (insects) is the most diverse class. There are about 900,000 known insect species, three times as many as all other animal species together, and thousands of new ones are described each year. They are commonly grouped in 27 to 32 orders, depending upon the classification used. The largest order is that of the beetles (Coleoptera). Next, in order of size, are the moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera); the wasps , ants , and bees (Hymenoptera); and the flies and mosquitoes (Diptera). Other major orders are the true bugs (Hemiptera); the cicadas , aphids , and scale insects (Homoptera); the grasshoppers and crickets (Orthoptera); the cockroaches (Blattodea); and the mantids (Mantodea). 

I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.
