Answer: Sensory neurons (nerves) are the neurons that fire when exposed to outside stimuli. Example: when you touch an ice cube, you feel the coldness of that ice cube. They are the nerves that fire off and send signals to the other nerves. Sensory neurons can be activated through physical and chemical stimuli. Physical stimuli would be sound, touch, heat, light. Chemical would be taste or smell. Nerve cells are the active component in the nervous system. Nerve cells are the basic function of the nervous system. The difference between the two are that sensory neurons (nerves) can activate motor neurons for the muscles can contract. Basically, sensory receptors (which are also neurons) are made up of nerve cells. They both send electrical signals.

During respirations, select all that apply.
Helen [10]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- B and C.

Explanation:

The cellular respiration is the process of forming energy molecules through oxidation of food. The cellular respiration takes place in four stages: glycolysis, link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain.

The glycolysis converts the glucose molecules to form two molecules of pyruvate and two ATP molecules but the total number of molecules formed in cellular respiration is between 36-38 ATP molecules. The electron flow takes place in the electron transport chain which helps in the generation of the proton motive force used to produce ATP molecules.

Thus, Option-B and C is the correct answer.
