Answer: The absorbed energy warms the atmosphere and the surface of the Earth. This process maintains the Earth's temperature at around 33 degrees Celsius warmer than it would otherwise be, allowing life on Earth to exist. Greenhouse gases keep our planet livable by holding onto some of Earth's heat energy so that it doesn't all escape into space. This heat trapping is known as the greenhouse effect. Just as too little greenhouse gas makes Earth too cold, too much greenhouse gas makes Earth too warm.

Which of the following types of receptors are located in the mouth?
kogti [31]

Answer:

B. only chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nociceptors

Explanation:

Receptors are chemical structures, that receive and transduce signals that may be integrated into biological systems.

Receptors that can be found in the  mouth include:  chemoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, thermoreceptors, and nociceptors.

<u>Chemoreceptors</u>

These are receptors that detects chemical stimuli, either molecules or ions dissolved in liquids. An example would be our taste buds in the mouth, because they respond to specific molecules or ions in our ingested food.

<u>Thermoreceptors</u> responds to changes in temperature. These receptors are present in the oral cavity, skin and hypothalamus.

Mechanoreceptors are receptors that respond to distortion of the plasma membrane that occurs due to touch, pressure, vibration, stretch, stress or strain . They can be found in the mucosae of ginviva (gum), cheek, tongue and soft and hard palate.

<u>Nociceptors</u> are receptor responds to painful stimuli. The purpose of nociceptors is to inform the body of injury, damage or threat of damage to body tissues  so that a response may be made. They can be found in the   tooth pulp and within dentine cavity.

Why are nutrients and gases most evenly distributed in a lake in the winter?
kvv77 [185]

When the temperature reaches 0˚C (32˚F), the top layer of the lake freezes and turns into ice. In solid form, water molecules are less dense and thus ice floats on the top of the lake.

This solid barrier prevents any wind-induced mixing as well as protects the relatively warm water underneath. Furthermore, light is also blocked so that photosynthesis is inhibited during this period. As the lake water is separated from the atmosphere, no direct oxygen diffusion occurs.

All these factors together causes a more even distribution of nutrients and gases in a lake in winter.
