Researchers have noticed that some men who were sterile because their sperm cells were unable to move also had chronic infection
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Kartegener's disorder

Explanation:

The respiratory tract has cilia which move. Sperms also have a tail that moves. They both have the same protein in their structure called microtubules. There is a disorder in which there is the absence of a part in the microtubule. Dynein arms absent in microtubules. Because the respiratory system and sperm both contain cilia that's why these two systems have a connection and not work properly.

Intercostal nerves Group of answer choices are also known as cervical nerves. do not enter into a plexus and directly connect to
Natali [406]

Answer:

The correct answer is: do not enter into a plexus and directly connect to the structures they supply.

Explanation:

<u>The </u><u>anterior rami</u><u> of the thoracic spinal nerves </u><u>from T1 to T11</u><u> give birth to the </u><u>intercostal nerves</u>, which are part of the somatic nervous system.

The intercostal nerves supply the thoracic pleura and abdominal peritoneum, and they vary from the anterior rami of the other spinal nerves in that they each take their own path without forming a plexus, <em>directly connecting to the structures they supply</em>.

The intercostal nerves are derived from the somatic nervous system, unlike the autonomic nervous system nerves that innervate the visceral pleura of the thoracic cavity. They can govern muscle contractions and give sensory information about the skin and parietal pleura as a result of this. This explains why damage to the thoracic cavity's interior wall can be felt as a severe discomfort in the damaged area. Damage to the visceral pleura causes a pain that is not localized.
