Biology
1 answer:
ziro4ka [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The corpus callosum corresponds to a leaf-shaped structure, being a group of nerve fibers that join both hemispheres of the brain (right and left). This structure is formed by axons covered with myelin, which make up the white substance. The functions of the corpus callosum are: transmission of information to both hemispheres, participation in vision (in eye movement), learning, information processing. When performing surgery on the corpus callosum, syneresis, comprehension disorders may occur

This procedure can be used for epilepsy.

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The main properties of water are its polarity, cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, high specific heat, and evaporative cooling. A water molecule is slightly charged on both ends. This is because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen. ... The stream of water bends due to the polarity of water molecules.

what were the historical reasons for the resistance to recognizing airborne transmission during the covid-19 pandemic?
ExtremeBDS [4]

Up until a 1962 demonstration of tuberculosis airborne transmission, airborne transmission of all major respiratory diseases was assumed to be of insignificant or moderate consequence over the following fifty years.

Before COVID-19, only a small number of diseases—those that were blatantly spread to people not in the same room—were generally acknowledged as airborne. This is because the contact/droplet paradigm remained popular.

<h3>What does the term "airborne transmission" mean?</h3>
  • The term "airborne transmission" refers to the propagation of droplet nuclei (aerosols) that retain their infectious properties after being suspended in air for a lengthy period of time and over great distances.
  • Bacteria or viruses that cause airborne infections are most frequently spread by tiny respiratory droplets. When a person with the airborne sickness sneezes, coughs, laughs, or exhales in any other way, these droplets are released.
