A large asteroid or comet impacted the earth.
Answer:
The pathway of information through the neuron is based in the connection of axons with other neurons, favoring the conduction of information from one place to another of the nervous system. The way in which a neuron communicates with another, with a receptor or an effector is called synapse.
Explanation:
Neurons are the specialized cells that allow the function of the nervous system, given by the transmission of information in the form of nerve impulses. The way in which information is transmitted by neurons depends on the connection that exists between neurons, by their axons and dendrites, or between enurons and specialized structures such as receptors and effectors.
When a stimulus reaches a receptor, it connects with the neuron that carries the information by afferent pathway to the central nervous system. Once the information is processed, a response is elaborated that travels through the neurons by efferent pathway to an effector cell.
Synapses are simply the connection that exists between neurons, through their axons, or from these cells to the receptor or effector structures. Synapses are located between one neuronal axon and another, or between axons and receptors or effectors, and occur through electrical signals or chemical mediators called neurotransmitters.

4. Large, circular lily pads are able to float on the water's surface.
Answer: cohesion
Cohesion mean that water attracted to another water. This force will make the water to form a surface tension in the lake. Water lily has a wide and thin leaf which makes it giving a low force per area. If the force applied on the surface is not bigger than surface tension, the leaf will stay float above the water. Surface tension also the reason water spider could walk on water.
5. The temperature of the water is about 5°C, while the temperature of the air is about 21°C.
Answer: heat capacity
Water has high heat capacity. High heat capacity mean that the water will not be easily become cold or hot. It will need more energy to increase/decrease the temperature of the water. This is why the water could keep its temperature much lower than the atmosphere. This will protect the organism inside the water from an extreme temperature change.
