The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Functions of astrocytes include all of the following, except
A) performing repairs in damaged neural tissue.
B) guiding neuron development.
C) functioning in action potential transmission.
D) maintaining the blood-brain barrier.
E) creating a three-dimensional framework for the CNS.
Answer:
Functioning in action potential transmission.
Explanation:
Astrocytes may be defined as the glial type star shaped cells present in the central nervous system. They envelope the synapse and can function with millions of neuron at a time.
Astrocytes are involved in the structural support in the brain and can repair the damaged and wear nerves tissue. Their main function is acting as blood brain barrier. The action potential transmission is mainly done by neurons and not by the astrocytes cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
Answer:
The importance of having the US Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Park Service is to manage land resources for conservation and the development of natural resources.
Explanation:
The US Bureau of Land Management was mainly established to manage lands for different uses;
The US Forest Service was established to sustainable management of forest resources vis a vis conservation and sustainable usage;
The US Fish and Wildlife Service was established to conserve and protect wildlife/fishes with end goal being in the benefit of the populace;
The National Park Service was established to oversee all the National Park Systems and ensure that their intensities are maintained for the continuous enjoyment, entertainment as well as education of the masses.
If the main aim of establishing each body is examined closely, it would be discovered that their primary function is to manage land resources, conserve biological diversity and the environment's integrity as well as oversee the use of land and the resources it contains.
The pollen grain is actually the male gametophyte generation of seed plants. Inside the anther, pollen mother cells divide by meiosis to form pollen grains whose nuclei contain half the number of chromosomes characteristic of the parent plant.

This should be of use here.
Answer:
OC
Explanation:
Primary succession begins after a new habitat is opened that was previously unavailable- for example, lava flow that left behind bare rock. This successions normally begins with organisms like lichens, which are able to survive in these conditions. It has no soil and was previously uninhabited.
Secondary succession begins as a response to a disturbance that clears a previously inhabited area, like a forest fire or tsunami. This may cause a lot of destruction and death, but afterwards there is still soil available for new plants to grow again. Eventually, the habitat will regrow itself.
