behavioral physiologist is studying the homeostatic control of blood pH. In a trial, a lizard runs on a treadmill for a set amou
nt of time and the blood pH is measured. The blood pH drops as carbon dioxide is released into the bloodstream. The body uses peripheral chemoreceptors to regularly measure blood pH. These chemoreceptors are the ____ in this example.
Homeostasis refers to the ability of an organism to maintain the internal conditions of the body irrespective of the external conditions.
The homeostasis is maintained by the homeostatic mechanism which involves the 3 components which are the receptor or sensor, the integrating centre and the effector or organ.
In the given question, the peripheral chemoreceptors measures and sense the pH of the blood therefore the peripheral chemoreceptor will be considered as the "sensor component" of the homeostatic mechanism.
Several factors affect the rate at which enzymatic reactions proceed - temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, and the presence of any inhibitors or activators.
The average kinetic energy of the particles in a material is measured by temperature. The overall kinetic energy of the particles in a material is measured by thermal energy. The higher the particle mobility, the higher the temperature and thermal energy of a material.
The correct statement is C. The pollutants will disrupt oxygen absorption in fish.
Explanation:
Motor oil and other fuels when dispose off in the water bodies, it causes suffocation in the marine animals and causes death. Motor oil or other fuel such as petrol, diesel etc are non polar solvent and water is a polar solvent so they are not dissolve with each other and the oil make a layer on the water surface and blocks oxygen.
a plant cell has a large centralised vacuole containing cell sap and has a cell wall and an animal cell contains centrioles while a plant cell does not. a plant cell contains chloroplast while an animal cell does not
A limiting factor is anything that constrains a population size and slows or stops it from growing,so when predators move into the ecosystem they compete with other organisms for resources
