Between sensory receptor and nerve cells, how are they both alike and how are they different

1 answer:

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.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

El cuadro no está presente pero las diferencias principales entre células eucariotas y procariotas son:

Eucariotas:

Tienen núcleo

Tienen organelas

Tienen Vacuolas

Tienen Citoesqueleto

Tienen Cloroplastos

El ADN está asociado a proteínas

El ADN es lineal

Presentan mitocondrias

Presentan un sistema de endomembranas

Procariotas:

No tienen núcleo

No tienen vacuolas

No tienen cloroplastos

No tienen organelas

El ADN no está asociado a proteínas

El ADN es circular

Presenta mesosomas

Explanation:

Las células procariotas son más primitivas que las eucariotas, por ende, sus estructuras son más simples. Las células procariotas están en organismos unicelulares tales como las bacterias, mientras que las células eucariotas están en organismos unicelulares y pluricelulares como en plantas, animales, u hongos. La diferencia más notoria entre ambos tipos de células es la ausencia de núcleo en las procariotas haciendo que el ADN está disperso en el citoplasma mientras que en las células eucariotas, el ADN está dentro del núcleo celular.

You want to determine if the source of fecal contamination is from dairy cows or wild deer. Which antibiotic would give you the

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Piperacillin and tazobactam, imipenem and cilastatin, or meropenem may be used.

Explanation:

Antibiotics such as piperacillin and tazobactam, imipenem and cilastatin, or meropenem can be used for the treatment of Fecal coliform bacteria that causes fecal contamination. There are some other methods also used to avoid Fecal contamination i.e. boiling of water, treating water with chlorine, or UV disinfection are the methods that are used to reduce Fecal coliform bacterial infection.

What are the differences between flow of matter and energy in an ecosystem? Why?

My name is Ann [436]

The key difference between energy flow and matter cycling is that energy flow shows the energy transmission from one trophic level to next trophic level in food chains while matter cycling shows the flow or cycling of elements through the living and nonliving parts of ecosystems
