Answer: FALSE
Explanation:
The nervous system is the system that detects and responds to changes inside and outside the body. This system consists of the brain, the spinal cord and peripheral nerves. The structure and organisation of the tissues that form these components enables rapid communication between different parts of the body.
Parts of the nervous system includes:
--> Central Nervous System ( consists of the brain and spinal cord)
--> Peripheral Nervous System ( consists of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord).The two functional parts of the peripheral nervous system are made up of the sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent). The motor division is involved in activities that are voluntary (somatic nervous system) and involuntary (autonomic nervous system).
The somatic motor division consists of somatic motor neurons that innervates ONLY the SKELETAL MUSCLE for its voluntary actions while the autonomic motor neurons innervates the cardiac and smooth muscles. Therefore the statement is FALSE
External respiration (correct answer) involves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the environment.
The exchange of wastes through the skin is just called excretion by sweating.
There is no exchange of nutrients that occur in the lungs but rather absorption of nutrients is the function of the gastrointestinal tract.
The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the cell is called cellular respiration and involves carrying oxygen from the blood to the cell then the cell uses it as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. The metabolic wastes of the cell, primarily carbon dioxide, goes now to the bloodstream to be exchanged for oxygen in the lungs.
The peripheral nervous system refers to parts of the nervous system outside the brain and spinal cord. It includes the cranial nerves, spinal nerves and their roots and branches, peripheral nerves, and neuromuscular junctions.

Q4: possibly D
Explanation:
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
It occurs over many generations.
It happens at the genetic level.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- <em><u>Evolution is the process that involves change in the inherited traits of a population over generations. </u></em>
- <em><u>The traits involved are the expressions of genes that are copied and passed from the parents to the offspring during reproduction process. Mutations in these genes results to new traits and thus heritable differences among organisms.</u></em>
- <em><u>Therefore, evolution will only occur when there is change in gene frequency within a population over a given period of time. Genetic differences that are heritable are passed to the next generation.</u></em>
