State two biological reasons why you consider that the loss of biodiversity matters.

Biology

Marat540 [252]3 years ago
3 0
Loss of biodiversity matters because it affects the overall sustainability of organisms in an ecosystem. It also affects how badly an ecosystem will be affected after something, maybe a natural disaster, or maybe a disease, strikes the region. (For example, if a disease affects a certain species of organism, if there was a lot of biodiversity among individuals, some will have some kind of natural immunity to that disease and survive, passing on their favorable traits to the next generation. However, if everybody was the same and did not have the immunity to that disease, that entire population would eventually die out.) <- This is also the reason that lack of biodiversity will inhibit natural selection.
Hope that helped you.

1. Ramachandran wants to understand brain functioning. How does he believe that we can better understand how the brain functions
Dvinal [7]
<h2>Answer 1: </h2>

The brain is an astounding three-pound organ that regulates all functions of the body, evaluates information from the outside world, and completes the essence of the mind and soul. Intelligence, creativity, emotion, and memory are some of the many things commanded by the brain.

<h2 /><h2>Answer 2: </h2>

Ramachandran's initial research was on human optical perception applying psychophysical techniques to draw precise inferences about the brain mechanisms holding visual processing. In the early 1990s, Ramachandran began to concentrate on neurological syndromes such as phantom limbs, body integrity personality disorder and the Capgras delusion. He has also added to the understanding of synesthesia and is known for inventing the mirror box.  

<h2 /><h2>Answer 3: </h2>

Among the choice given, being a combination of minds is something that sounds more interesting. It also leads to Ramachandran's study of mirror neurons. In this condition one might be able to think with different perspectives rather than focusing on the one and the intelligence level will also be quite high. Though this seems bit impossible but with the scientific technology it can be be achieved in near future.


<h2>Answer 4:</h2>

déjà vu is a feeling which makes you realise that what you're currently doing has previously happened. However, during this process, there is something your brain is attempting to tell you. Studying deja vu is more interesting as it can make you feel like you've identified someone, or been somewhere, in a past life, though it might be all in your head, according to science.


<h2>Answer 5:</h2>

Capgras delusion is a psychiatric disease in which a person endures a delusion that a friend, spouse, parent, or other close family members (or pet) has been substituted by an indistinguishable impostor. People experience Capgras syndrome by a dilemma within the brain, like atrophy, lesions, or cerebral dysfunction.


<h2>Answer 6:</h2>

A phantom limb is a sensation that an eliminated or missing part is still attached. About 60 to 80% of people with an amputation experience phantom sensations in their separated limb and the majority of the sensations are painful. Ramachandran suggested that phantom limb pain might be generated by changes in the brain — not, as most people thought, in the peripheral nerves near the phantom limb.


<h2>Answer 7:</h2>

After recognising that phantom limb pain started in the brain and that the brain could be remapped — Ramachandran understood he needed to trick patients' brains into unlearning the pain connected with their phantom limbs. He named this phenomenon "learned pain or learned paralysis". Ramachandran found this method useful as he was expert in neuro-department so he thought tricking the brain would be easy.


<h2>Answer 8:</h2>

Synesthesia is a state in which a sensory stimulus done in one modality provokes a sensation in a different modality. Researchers believe a kind of synesthesia exists in all our brains. For instance, we talk of certain smells of particular liquids--like nail polish--as being sweet, even though we have never tasted them. This might include the close neural links and cross activations.


<h2>Answer 9:</h2>

The holy grail of neuroscience is understanding consciousness. In his tedtalk video, Ramachandran talks about how to study the brain? Look at patients with continued damage in the brain. This provides you with a highly selective non-function in one region while other functions are intact. This way you can obtain out what the circuitry is doing.


<h2>Answer 10:</h2>

The brain is formed of the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem.

  • Cerebrum; is the considerable part of the brain. It performs higher duties like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, thinking, emotions, knowledge, and fine control of movement.
  • Cerebellum; is found under the cerebrum. Its purpose is to regulate muscle movements, control posture, and balance.
  • Brainstem; acts as a relay centre joining the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal cord. It offers many intuitive functions such as breathing, heart rate, body temperature, wake and sleep cycles etc.

<h2>Answer 11:</h2>

Magicology is casting a spell on the mind. An incredible ability to control minds. Where one can manipulate people to an exceptional degree, drawing their consideration away from something and taking the benefit of that state. But scientists/ researchers consider it to be the best way to understand what's inside a person's brain/mind as they can get answers to all their questions while the patient is hypnotised.
