The correct answer is gate-control theory of pain.

The gate control theory of pain assume that non-painful input closes the "gates" to painful input. As a consequence, pain sensation cannot travel to the central nervous system (CNS) and thus, stimulation by non-noxious input can suppress pain.

Answer:

Gate control theory

Explanation:

  • The gate control theory states that non-painful sensations can overcome the effect of painful sensations and thus reduce the sensation of pain traveling to the central nervous system by closing the nerves carrying the painful sensation.
  • Here, the nerves act as the gates and since the non-painful sensations are directions these nerves to not carry the painful sensations, it is said to be exerting the control over the "gates", i.e the nerves.
  • Therefore, in the given question, the argument presented by Dr. Gannon that the incoming pain sensations need to pass through the openings in the spinal cord which can also be closed, the argument is based on the gate control theory.

Answer:

The correct answer is - 1990.

Explanation:

From the graph and year - population size table it is clearly understood that the population of grizzly bear is reduced by 39 number from year 1988 to 1989.

But after 1989 from 1990 onwards population of grizzly bear is consistently rising.

Now, let us analyse the data given in question number 2 .

No. of grizzly bear deaths in Alberta from 1976 to 1988 = 581

No. of grizzly bear deaths in Alberta from 1988 to 2000 = 281

From the above data we can clearly say now that the grizzly bear population deaths starts increasing from 1990.

So, the prediction made in question no. 1 that " the government of Alberta introduced the hunting lottery award in 1990 because in 1989 it decreases and then it starts to go up again in 1990",
