Algae growth and oxygen depletion in lakes and stream, and methemoglobinemia, caused by too much nitrate-nitrogen in drinking water.
dlinn [17]3 years ago

Answer: The fertilizers that are used for the growth and development of the plants are harmful for the aquatic life when it is carried away by the run from the agricultural fields.

These fertilizers helps in the growth of the algae and it forms a layer on the surface of the water bodies that reduces the amount of oxygen inside the water.

This can lead to death of the aquatic animals in the water bodies.

A neuron transmits information by the secretion of hormones. True or False
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

A neuron is the basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system. It helps in transmitting information from one neuron to another neuron, gland, or muscle cell.

The conduction of nerve impulse is electrochemical in nature. It transmits the impulse electrically through the axon the nerve cells and chemically through synapses (gap between two nerves cells).

The axon terminals of pre-synaptic nerve cell release chemical messengers (also called neurotransmitters) in the synaptic cleft. These messengers then bind to the receptors present on the post-synaptic nerve cell and regenerate the nerve impulse.

When looking at groups of cells, which is ordered from smallest to largest?
Sedbober [7]
The smallest item in the list would be organelles. Organelles are tiny structures within a cell, that help it to function. Example of organelles are-- nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane to name a few. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things, therefore, cells would have to be placed second. They are microscopic. A group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function, is known as a tissue. Therefore, tissue is next largest. Examples of tissues include, muscle tissue, epithelial tissue, adipose tissue. When different types of tissues work together to perform a function in the body, this group of tissues forms an organ. An example of an organ is the heart. Inside the heart are many types of tissue-- cardiac muscle,nerve, blood, connective, etc. The job it performs is to pump blood. When various organs work together to perform a specific function in the body, this makes up a system. An example is the circulatory system. In this system are many organs that work together. Arteries, veins, capillaries and heart are all part of the circulatory system. Its job is to circulate blood containing nutrients and oxygen to cells and to pick up cellular wastes. All the systems of the body comprise the organism. An organism is a living thing. It can be as tiny as a microbe, or a complex as a human. When referring to a multicellular organism, the correct order from smallest to largest is-- organelle, cell, tissue, organ, system, organism

The tightness with which a chemical attaches to a binding site is termed its __________ for that site, while the effectiveness o
spayn [35]

The tightness with which a chemical attaches to a binding site is termed its affinity for that site, while the effectiveness of the binding chemical is termed its efficacy.

Affinity quantifies how well a medication binds to a receptor (or how well it "fits the lock").

The ability of a drug-bound receptor to induce a response (or "turn the key") is referred to as efficacy.

While antagonists only have affinity for the receptors and no (zero) effectiveness, agonists have both affinities and efficacy for the receptor.

Effectiveness governs what transpires after the medication has been attached to the receptor through affinity.

The affinity (potency) and/or efficacy of different medicines that bind to the same receptor and elicit the same type of response will often vary from one another.
