Answer:

Parasympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

Parasympathetic nervous system together with sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system also called the vegetative nervous system is part of the peripheral nervous system which inervates  smooth muscle and glands. Thus, it directly affects the function of internal organs and  regulates  functions such as the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate,  urination etc. This nervous system control is  unconscious.

Parasympathetic nervous system works when organism is at rest so it is known as system responsible for "rest and digest functions". On the other hand, sympathetic nervous system works at active and stressful situations and it is known as "fight and flight" system.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a) genetic drift -  yes

b) Natural selection -  yes

c) Gene flow -  yes

d) Mutation - yes

Explanation:

factor that alter the allele frequencies are

a) genetic drift -  yes

b) Natural selection -  yes

c) Gene flow -  yes

d) Mutation - yes

Genetic drift -  Alter occur due to sampling error or selecting error. in this  some error occur while deciding for the allele for the next generation.

Natural selection - it is due to large number of one type of allele in the population

Gene flow - it alter because of migration of allele among the populations.

Mutation  -  it is strong for introduction of new alleles in the population

larisa [96]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- Transverse tubules

Explanation:

Transverse tubules are the tubular structure formed by the extension of the plasma membrane which innervates the cardiac and skeletal muscle cells. The T-tubules structure is structured between 20-40 nm and located at the junction of the I and A band.

The signals from the motor neurons once raches the motor endplate in muscles are carried into the muscles by these T-tubules which transmits the signals to muscle cells at very high speed. The T-tubules cause the release of the Calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum that cause contraction of the skeletal muscle.

Thus, Transverse tubules are the correct answer.
