Sympathetic neurons stimulate vasoconstriction in the gi tract, while sympathetic neurons stimulate vasodilation in arterioles s
Anvisha [2.4K]

It is because of the different neurotransmitters and their receptors.

Sympathetic stimulation of arterioles in skeletal muscle is mediated by epinephrine acting on its β-adrenergic receptors.  

Sympathetic stimulation   of vasoconstriction occurs as a result of activation of α-1 adrenergic receptors by norepinephrine released by post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

B) cytoplasmic streaming in hyphae

Explanation:

Fungal mycelium refers to the branched vegetative structure of the fungi which is formed by the growth of the hyphae. The hyphae contain three zones of growth: the apical, subapical and zone of vacuolation.

The hyphae grow in the apical region which forms a branched structure in which the cytoplasm continuously moves between the hyphae at the point of fusion towards the growing tip. This movement of the cytoplasm towards the growing tip is known as "cytoplasmic streaming".

This streaming of cytoplasm is responsible for the formation of a zone of vacuolation and the mycelium is formed.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

The growing tip eventually gives rise to a branch. This is the beginning of the branched mycelium. Growing tips that come in contact with neighbouring hyphae often fuse with them to form a hyphal net. In such a vigorously growing system, the cytoplasm is in constant motion, streaming toward the growing tips. Eventually, the older hyphae become highly vacuolated and may be stripped of most of their cytoplasm.

Which of the following processes includes all the others?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Passive transport.

Explanation:

The transport of molecules across the plasma membrane can occur by the two process- active transport and passive transport. No amount of energy is required during the active transport.

Passive transport includes the diffusion and osmosis. Both the diffusion and osmosis do not require energy and the molecules move down from the region of higher concentration towards the region of lower concentration. Small molecules, ions and proteins can go through the passive transport.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
