Answer:
Solar waves with wavelengths between 160 and 400 nanometers are known as ultraviolet rays and carry higher levels of energy than sunlight. Solar waves with wavelengths between 780 and 1,500 nanometers are known as infrared rays and carry lower levels of energy than sunlight.
Answer:
it causes the depolarization of the target cell
Explanation:
Glutamate is an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter that binds to specific receptors on the surface of target cells and thus causes its depolarization. During glutamate-mediated depolarization, the difference in charge inside and outside the cell is lost due to the entry of sodium and calcium positive ions into the postsynaptic cell (neuron) through specific ion channels. Moreover, glutamate binding also leads to the exit of potassium ions from the cell, thereby resulting in excitation. Through this mechanism, glutamate regulates many signaling pathways, such as those involved in memory, learning, emotions, cognition, motor control, etc.
Answer: B. coniferous forests.
Explanation:
Coniferous forests are the terrestrial biomes which receives an annually 300 to 900 millimeters precipitation. These forests exhibits trees which undergoes special adaptations in the scarcity of water. The forests exhibit coniferous trees which means instead of leaves they posses needles and instead of flowers they have cones. These adaptations helps in preventing the water loss through transpiration.
Answer:
D) elastic cartilage
Explanation:
Cartilage is a connective tissue which is fibrous in composition which provides its physical properties like the softness, elasticity and strength.
There are three types of cartilages- the elastic, hyaline and the fibrocartilage. Among these three the cartilage which forms the external ear is the elastic cartilage. The elastic cartilage is composed of the elastin protein, type II collagen and the elastic fibres. The presence of the elastin proteins and fibres allows the ear to be an elastic organ.
Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
Answer:
c latititude
Explanation:
Latitude or distance from the equator – Temperatures drop the further an area is from the equator due to the curvature of the earth. In areas closer to the poles, sunlight has a larger area of atmosphere to pass through and the sun is at a lower angle in the sky.
