<h2>(D) is the correct option </h2>
Explanation:
- Both the stapedius and tensor tympani are striated muscles
- The stapedius is about 6 mm in length, arises from the pyramidal process and the tendon attaches to the posterior neck of the stapes
- The stapedius is a muscle with a high oxidative capacity
- The tensor tympani is about 25 mm in length, the muscle is not as strong as the stapedius, and the tendon also contains more elastic tissue and fat
- The tensor tympani courses through a bony canal in the wall of the anterior middle ear, and attaches to the neck of the manubrium
- The tensor tympani and stapedius muscles are protective reflexes
- They reduce the amount of sound that gets into the inner ear
- They are somewhat similar to the blink reflex thus they can be triggered by loud noise, and when they go off, both ears can be involved
- If stapedius and tensor tympani muscles is not present then loud sounds would cause the ossicles to move too much, potentially causing damage to the inner ear
Answer:
All plant and animal organisms that float or move to a limited extent in water, carried by currents and waves are called plankton.
Explanation:
Jellyfish are on the border of plankton and nekton. They are made of gelatinous tissue in which water makes up 98% of the body's composition. Simple anatomy, they have a single-opening digestive tract and a reticular nervous system.
Answer:
Earth, both on land and in water. Wherever they
live, plants provide food and oxygen to the
creatures that live nearby – including humans!
In this activity we will examine both a
terrestrial (land) plant and an aquatic (water)
plant. They have many things in common, but the
ways they get air, food and water change along
with the environments in which they live.
