FAULT-TOLERANT computer systems are systems that are built with
the ability to keep working to
a level of satisfaction, even in the presence of faults within one or more of
its components. <span>This
fault tolerant ability is sometimes referred to as graceful degradation</span>
Answer:
Body temperature
Explanation:
Homeostasis is the a resistance to change due to the body's attempt to maintain constant and stable internal environment. To maintain the body's overall functioning it is very important that homeostasis is maintained at all levels.
Body temperature can be used as homeostasis parameter in the lab. It is important that that the body tries to maintain a constant temperature.
A neurotransmitter is defined as a chemical messenger that carries, boosts, and balances signals between neurons, or nerve cells, and other cells in the body. These chemical messengers can affect a wide variety of both physical and psychological functions including heart rate, sleep, appetite, mood, and fear. Billions of neurotransmitter molecules work constantly to keep our brains functioning, managing everything from our breathing to our heartbeat to our learning and concentration levels.
Answer:
The respiratory epithelium is a type of ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium.
Explanation:
The epithelium (a type of tissue) lines the blood vessels and inner-outer surfaces of organs. Their function includes protection, secretion, absorption, transport, etc. Based on the shape, they are classified as squamous, columnar, and cuboidal. Also, they can be simple epithelium (a single layer of cells) or stratified (layers of two or more cells).
Respiratory epithelium (airway epithelium) is a type of ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium. It is the epithelium that is found in the respiratory mucosa and lines most of the respiratory tract. It protects and moist the airways. It prevents infection by the self-cleaning mechanism of the airways (mucociliary clearance) and thus acts as a barrier to pathogens and foreign particles. It also secretes mucus and prevents tissue injury. The respiratory epithelium contains four types of cells-ciliated, goblet, club and airway basal cells. The arrangement of these multiple cell types as a single layer results in the non- alignment of their nuclei in the same plane. So the epithelium appears as layered or stratified. Hence the name pseudostratified or falsely layered.
