Answer: C. Positive feedback mechanisms are overwhelmed.
Explanation:
Homeostasis, is the maintenance of a normal internal environment, in the face of external and internal disturbances, so that the functions of cells and systems of the body are preserved. This is accomplished primarily through feedback systems, so when a system is disturbed, a diversity of local responses, systemic reflexes (rapid reactions and automatic stimuli) and long-term adjustments are activated to bring the system back to its normal equilibrium point.
Most systems are controlled by negative feedback mechanisms, with the controlled variable being able to "turn off" its release, in the same way as a thermostat controls the temperature of a room. So, in this context, too much positive feedback would be related to harmful effects, such as homeostatic imbalance.
The correct answer is D. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
filum terminale
The filum terminale is a thin strand of pia mater that helps anchor the conus medullaris to the coccyx
The Sun is the basic source of energy for the Earth which affect the growth of all living things and the Sun also affect the all the biochemical processes. We know that the amount of radiation from the Sun changes day by day due to the distance of the Earth from the Sun. The rate of Solar energy affects the Earth in two ways.
The rate of solar heating which directly affects the processes like the evaporation and condensation and indirectly it affects the cloud forming processes of the Earth. The rate at which the solar energy reaches the Earth is called as the Total Solar Irradiance or TSI. This affects the climate of the Earth in many ways.
The change in rate of cloud formation increases of decreases with the distance of the Sun from Earth and hence a warm, moderate or cold climate is formed
It also affects the formation of winds due to the low or high pressure in the water bodies and hence affect the climate in the coastal areas.
The tropical areas have hot and humid climate due to the equator which has maximum exposure to the Sun’s heat.
Hence, the Sun is one primary feature that affects the climate in the Earth.
<u>Answer:</u>
Although statements are not given in the question, we could make the most possible deduction as follows:
The allele for purple flowers is dominant whereas allele for white flowers is recessive.
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to the question,
- Purple flower plant was crossed with white flower plant.
- All offsprings have purple flowers.
Here we have one possibility that both parents were homozygous but in their own traits. <u>Purple flower</u> plants were "PP" and white <u>flower plants</u> were "pp" So, the <u>first progeny</u> (direct offsprings) would have "Pp". So, as per considerations, purple is dominant allele which will mask the recessive allele thus defining the color of all offsprings as purple. However, further cross of their generation will definitely end up into purple and white flowers (3:1) but this condition is not mentioned in the statement.
