Cynthia, a 55 kg woman, is training to run a marathon. How many grams of carbohydrate does she need during periods of heavy trai
lisov135 [29]

It is recommended to eat about 4 grams of carbs for every pound of body weight per day. So, it means that Cynthia (55 kg ~ 121 pounds) needs to take in about 500 grams of carbohydrates daily. Carbohydrates are important nutrient for marathon athletes to consume when preparing for a marathon because the skeletal muscles are fuelled mainly by glucose derived from carbohydrates. Glucose is stored in the form of glycogen to promote a decrease in fatigue during the race.

The concentration of ions in the chemical environment surrounding the neurons must be tightly regulated for neurons to function
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

B) astrocytes

Explanation:

Cells other than neurons that play an important role in the normal functioning of nervous system are called Neuroglia or glial cells.

Satellite cells, astrocytes, schwann cells and oligodendrocytes are all examples of glial cells.

⇒Satellite cells provide protection and nutrition to cells in peripheral nervous system ( peripheral nerves and ganglia).

⇒<em><u>Astrocytes</u></em> play an important role in central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). They provide protection to neurons, scavenge ions, form the blood-brain barrier and also maintain extracellular environment suitable for neuronal functioning.

⇒Schwann cells are found in the peripheral nervous system and myelinate the axons of neurons.

⇒Oligodendrocytes are found in central nervous system and produce myelin sheath which myelinates (insulates) axons  of neurons. Their function is similar to schwann cells but in the central nervous system.

From the above discussion it is clear that the answer is B) Astrocytes as these maintain a suitable chemical environment for the neurons.
