Over time weeds have become resistant to pesticides. Which process explains how pesticide resistance developed? A. natural selec
Mice21 [21]
A. Natural Selection.  This is because the weeds that are not resistant to it die out before they can reproduce, but the resistant ones grow to maturity and then reproduce, passing down the resistance gene.  Over time, the resistance gene would become a normal thing in weeds, while the non-resistant gene would not exist anyone, since the gene could not be passed on.

Plants typical of the tundra are very short in stature or height. What is advantageous about this so called 'cushion plant form
melomori [17]

Answer:

c. daytime conductive heat gain from adjacent ground surface would be greater

Explanation:

The plants in the tundra had to adapt to survive so they became short and developed closer together, this can create a sort of cushion that locks in the heat that the sun can provide, conductive heat from the adjacent soil is also taken advantage of and the leaves on the plant absorbe as much heat from the sunlight as they can, growin closer together also helps them mantain the heat.

How does the neuron know when to release the neurotransmitters?
Leno4ka [110]
All neurotransmitter receptors should be thought of as having two functions: First, to detect a particular neurotransmitter, and second, to do something<span> when they detect it. The receptor determines what the neurotransmitter's effect is. So it's not always right to call a neurotransmitter inhibitory or excitatory. Glutamate, for example, is among the most common neurotransmitters, and it's almost always excitatory... Except when it binds to a particular type of glutamate receptor, which is inhibitory. Done dopamine receptors are excitatory, some are inhibitory, and not all receptors have effects that fit neatly into those two categories. Sometimes a receptor will have an effect on something completely different... When the NMDA subtype of glutamate receptor is activated, for example, it can cause the postsynaptic cell to change what receptors it puts at that synapse (a cell can have different receptors at different synapses!). Your welcome!
