BTX or batrachotoxin is a type of steroidal alkaloid which was first derived from the skin of Dendrobatidae or poison dart frogs. This neurotoxin prevents the muscle and nerve cells from transmitting electrical signals. The toxin permanently blocks electrical signal transmission from the nerves to the muscle by binding and inactivating the sodium channels.
Answer:
A) receptor, sensory neuron, interneuron, motor neuron, effector
Explanation:
In a reflex arc, the receptors present in the skin receive stimulus and generate afferent impulse. The sensory neuron transmits the impulse to the interneuron. Interneuron is present in the spinal cord and activates it. The interneuron then sends back the impulse through the motor neurons to effectors whcih are present in the muscles for the response.
Speed. Reaction. Function. Alter.
Answer:
Charles Darwin
Explanation:
Natural selection, most famously proposed by Charles Darwin, states that when presented with an environmental challenge, some individuals in a species will develop adaptations to face these challenges. Successful individuals will be more likely to mate and their offspring will inherit these adaptive traits, and will continue to pass for generations.
In this sense, plants face the challenge of the cold. Those that adapt to the cold will survive and reproduce, those that can't adapt to the cold will die. Eventually, only plants that can tolerate the cold will survive.
