I believe Cortex is the last structure of the brain to complete its growth process. Surrounding the brain is the Cerebral cortex which resembles a half shelled walnut, it is the largest, most complex brain structure which accounts for 85% of the brain's weight, containing the greatest number of neurons and synapses, and responsible for the unique intelligence. It is the last brain structure to stop growing, it is sensitive to environmental influences for a much longer period than any other part of the brain.

What causes the respiratory center in the medulla oblongata
yanalaym [24]

This question seem to be incomplete... Here is the full question

What causes the respiratory center in the medulla oblongata of the brain to increase the rate of respirations?

Answer:

decreased amount of oxygen or increased amounts of carbon dioxide in the blood

Explanation:

The medulla  oblongata and the pons are involved in the regulation of the ventilatory pattern of respiration.

The decrease in  blood pH result  from the  decreased amount of oxygen, Hypoxemia refers to insufficient oxygen in the blood. Thus any cause that influences the rate or volume of air entering the lungs (ventilation) or any cause that influences the transfer of air from the lungs to the blood may cause hypoxemia.

In response to a decrease in blood pH, the respiratory center (in the medulla ) sends nervous impulses to the external intercostal muscles and the diaphragm, to increase the breathing rate and the volume of the lungs during inhalation.

Also, Let take a look at a situation of an individual suffering from  an anxiety attack(i.e hyperventilating). The increased ventilation rate will remove too much carbon dioxide from their body, (this implies that there is increased amounts of carbon dioxide in the blood). Without that carbon dioxide, there will be less carbonic acid in blood, so the concentration of hydrogen ions decreases and the pH of the blood rises.

In response, the respiratory chemoreceptors detect this change, and send a signal to the medulla, which signals the respiratory muscles to decrease the ventilation rate so carbon dioxide levels and pH can return to normal levels.

Psl 250 when the ventricles are contracting, blood is flowing through which valves?
Likurg_2 [28]

Pulmonary valve and Aortic valve

During systole, the aortic and pulmonic valves open to permit ejection into the aorta and pulmonary artery.

<h3>What happen when ventricles contract ?</h3>

When the right ventricle contracts, blood is forced through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary artery

  • Then it travels to the lungs. In the lungs, the blood receives oxygen then leaves through the pulmonary veins. It returns to the heart and enters the left atrium.

  • When the left ventricle contracts, it forces blood through the aortic semilunar valve and into the aorta. The aorta and its branches carries the blood to all the body's tissues.

Which of these is a characteristic of warm air?
lilavasa [31]
The answer is B. The air molecules of warm air have high energy and therefore collide with high energy. This causes them to move away from each other with increased temperatures. This is another reason why heating air in a closed container results to high pressure with increased heating.
