Physical and function unit
The sensory registers RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM THE EXTERNAL WORLD.
The sensory registers takes information from all the five sense organs and hold the information only for a few seconds, maximum of twenty seconds. Sensory register is the most intermediate form of memory which one have and it is the shortest form of memory.
Answer:
1) Hunger, savor, appetite. Three main biological reasons why we eat. Also, the economic ability to pay for the food. And the fisical capability to go and buy food, to cook.
2) Our physiological needs are the main reason why we choose food. People need energy to survive.
Everyone would like to have the possibility to eat what he wants. But food choices depend on the financial situation, social class, and preferences.
That is why poor people or people who have less money to spend on food, often eat food that can feed more people but it doesn’t have nutritional values. When people have money, they immediately have a wider spectrum of groceries that can choose from.
Explanation:
Savour is equal to enjoying. When people are not hungry they are happier. We choose what to eat depending on the look, taste, smell, texture. As sweets smell good, people consider them the most attractive food. Food is not just the source of nutrition, it is also the source of satisfaction.
Answer:
Elastomeric
Explanation:
An elastomer is a polymer whose main characteristic is elasticity and can even recover its shape after being deformed
The chemical composition of an elastomer is the grouping of thousands of molecules called monomers, which join together forming huge chains. These large chains of polymers are those that give elasticity since they are flexible and are intertwined in a very messy way.
When an elastomer is stretched, its molecules align, allowing many times to take a crystalline appearance. However, upon releasing the tension, it immediately returns to its original state of elastic disorder. The above distinguishes elastomers from plastic polymers.
Answer:
Reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
Explanation:
The spinal cord is part of the central nervous system and is made up of neurons that go along it (from the end of the brain stem almost to the bottom of the spine).
The spinal cord receives incoming messages from the peripheral nervous system (including the sensory neurons) and pass on messages from the brain to efferent neurons (motor neurons at muscles).
The spinal cord contributes to learning as it passes on the info received from sensory neurons (that there is an obstacle in the path) to the brain and passes on the response from the brain to the muscles (to lift the foot up higher).
The spinal cord is essential for integration as it passes on sensory information to the brain to determine motor output.
Reflexes are when sensory information is quickly sent straight to motor neurons to move. It does not need to go to the brain (hence does not need to go to the spinal cord) for the reaction as it would be too slow. This is seen when someone who is paraplegic (paralysed at lower torso) can still move their leg in response to the doctor tapping their knee even when they cannot forcibly move their legs.
Therefore reflexes are not a function of the spinal cord.
