Supergiant stars can have masses from 10 to 70 times greater than our Sun. When it comes to brightness, some of them can be from 30,000 times or brighter than our Sun. The temperature range of a supergiant spans from around 3,450 K to 20,000 K. The absolute visual magnitudes between -3 and -8.
Answer:
Clostridium tetani
Explanation:
Clostridium tetani causes tetanus, a disease that classically follows injury to the body. Clostridium tetani spores, which are commonly in soil and animal faeces are deposited in the wound and germinate in anaerobic condition. It releases toxins which are tetanospasmin and tetanolysin. Tetanospasmin is responsible for sustained contraction while tetanolysin is responsible for hemolysis of blood cells which is commonly associated with clostridium tetani.
<span>Ian Waterman was able to sense pain and temperature because his
spinothalamic pathway was intact, but could not feel touch and limb position because of damage to his
lemniscus pathway. </span>
The lateral spinothalamic tract is a sensory pathway which carries sensory information like pain and temperature to the brain, across the thalamus. Free nerve endings which are located in the peripheral tissues are sensitive to cell damage. Those are primary neurons and they pass the sensory signal. Primary neurons synapse with secondary which are located in the spinal cord (white matter). These secondary neurons will ascend through the brainstem, medulla oblongata, pons and midbrain, until synapsing in the ventroposteriorlateral (VPL) nucleus of the thalamus. From the thalamus, the information is sent to cortex (somatosensory cortex).
Posterior column-medial lemniscus pathway is ascending spinal tract, carrying sensory information to the brain (sensory pathway). It conducts localized sensations of fine touch, vibration and proprioception (position sense) from the skin and extremities (muscles) to the central nervous system (cerebral cortex).
Compare: Estimate, measure, or note the similarity or dissimilarity between.
Contrast: Compare in such a way as to emphasize differences.
Therefore, to contrast is to compare. They mean the same thing. So, just write the differences and similarities between the two texts and you should be fine. It doesn't matter what subject or topic it is, just stick to the guidelines,and you should be good. have a nice day =D
