Answer:

The cells that are most affected by Primary Lateral Sclerosis are muscle cells and neurons.

Explanation:

Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLE) is a condition that affects the portion of the peripheral nerves that are responsible for innervating the striated muscles, producing muscle stiffness and paralysis.

The cause of PLE is unknown and it produces a degeneration of the supporting tissue —glial tissue— in the lateral portion of the spinal cord and nerves, which is in charge of activating the muscle tissue. As a result, the cells most affected are the neurons, which do not fulfill their function, and the muscle cells that tend to atrophy.

The other answer combinations are wrong choices because:

  • <em>Primary lateral sclerosis does not affect the epithelial tissue or the liver cell.</em>

The orbital radius and the orbital speed is directly proportional. When the radius is increased, the orbital speed will also increase but it has to add energy to the system to increase the orbital radius.

Lh is released by the anterior pituitary gland to stimulate sertoli cells to produce sperm. (lo 13.2) true or false
harina [27]
This is false for a number of reasons. While LH (which stands for Leutinizing Hormone) is released by the anterior pituitary gland and can be present in both females and males, it play a more predominant role in females. Working closely with FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) a surge in LH begins the process of ovulation and the development of the Corpeus Leuteum.

In Males it is used both for the production of sperm but to stimulate the production of testosterone.
