Answer:

Your skin regulates your body temperature through blood vessels and through the process of sweating. The skin is in effect your body's thermostat. When you're out in cold weather, your skin triggers shivering so the blood vessels will contract and keep you as warm as possible.

Explain why facilitated diffusion may need to occur and in what direction the particles diffuse in. Identify the molecules that
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Sometimes molecules cannot move through the cell membrane on their own. These molecules need special transport proteins to help them move across the membrane. Facilitated diffusion is the diffusion of substances with the help of transport proteins in the plasma membrane. These special proteins are called channel proteins or carrier proteins, and they are attached to the cell membrane. In fact, they go through the cell membrane, from the inside of the cell to the outside. Facilitated diffusion is used for molecules that cannot diffuse rapidly through cell membranes on their own, even when the molecules are moving from high to low concentration areas. An example is the sugar plants and animals use for energy, called glucose. Even though facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, it is still passive transport because the solute is moving down the concentration gradient so it does not require the use of cellular energy.

Describe the origin and fiber composition of (1) ventral and dorsal roots, (2) the spinal nerve proper, and (3) ventral and dors
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A dorsal root (sensory or afferent) and a ventral root (motor or efferent) originate from the medulla. They unite near the intervertebral foramen, forming the spinal nerve. The nerves emerge from the intervertebral foramen, dividing into ventral and dorsal ramus.

Explanation:

The nerve is a set of nerve fibers perceptible to the naked eye and wrapped in connective tissue. They are made up of roots, trunks and nerve branches (some of them come together and form plexuses).The spinal nerve originate from the spinal cord in the form of 31 pairs: 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral and 1 coccygeal. They emerge from the spinal cord through two roots: dorsal roots, made up of sensory fibers that come from the sensory neurons of the spinal ganglion and that penetrate the spinal cord through the posterolateral  and ventral root, made up of motor fibers, coming from the motor neurons of the anterior horn and visceral of the lateral horn of the gray matter of the spinal cord. This root exits the spinal cord through the anterolateral groove, then joins the posterior root to form the spinal nerve, which exits the vertebral canal through the corresponding intervertebral foramen.Each spinal nerve, after leaving the vertebral canal, emits two primary ramus: the dorsal ramus, contains somatic and visceral fibers that go to the skin and muscles of the back and the ventral ramus, which supplies the ventrolateral surface of the skin, body wall and extremities.

where do trees get their mass? How did you decide where most of the matter that makes up trees comes from?
umka2103 [35]

The mass of a tree is primarily carbon. The carbon comes from carbon dioxide used during photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants convert the sun's energy into chemical energy which is captured within the bonds of carbon molecules built from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water.
