These are the axons and are cable-like bundles which provide a way for all the electrochemical signals. They are of 3 types: afferent, efferent and mixed nerves. </span>
Answer: Option A.
The hypothalamus is the brain structure responsiblre for regulating thirst, hunger, temperature and sexual behaviour.
Explanation:
Hypothalamus is a part of brain structures located at the floor of the third ventricle below the thalamus and its control the autonomic system.

The Prostate gland
The prostate is a walnut-sized organ that surrounds the
first part of the urethra. It is located between the bladder and the penis. Semen

Answer:
The advantage of this is that there is a larger surface area exposed, more time available and shorter difference for exchange of oxygen.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer will be option E.
Explanation:
The features given in the question are the characteristics features of the group of bacteria belonging to Cyanobacteria.
These Cyanobacteria are the prokaryotes which are capable of synthesizing the food through a process called photosynthesis. These bacteria use sunlight as their energy, use water and air to synthesize food. They under anaerobic condition synthesize the nitrogen in special structures called heterocyst, a characteristic feature of cyanobacteria.
Thus, the features given in the question are:
1. contain photosystems to carry out photosynthesis.
2. producing oxygen
4. contain phycobilins
6. Hetrocysts: nitrogen-fixing structures.
7. The ancestor of plant chloroplasts.
Thus, option E is the correct answer.
