Biology

givi [52]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

There are about 120 million rods in the human retina. The cones are not as sensitive to light as the rods. However, cones are most sensitive to one of three different colors (green, red or blue). Signals from the cones are sent to the brain which then translates these messages into the perception of color.

It would be most difficult for the body to maintain homeostasis if over several days someone had an inadequate intake of:_______
Liula [17]

If someone had an inadequate intake of sodium over several days, it would be most difficult for the body to maintain homeostasis.

<h3>Why is sodium important for homeostasis? </h3>

Most of the sodium in our body is present in the extracellular fluid (ECF). The concentration of sodium in the body is measured relative to the amount of water in the body.

Maintaining proper sodium concentration is therefore essential for maintaining water balance in the body. It also helps in the proper functioning of neurons by assisting in the conduction of impulses.

Sodium concentration is also important for muscle contraction. Proper sodium concentration maintains osmolality of the extracellular fluid which maintains the volume of blood and plasma in the body.

Therefore, an inadequate intake of sodium, over several days will affect the homeostasis of the body.

Pair-bonding in a population of prairie voles can be prevented by .
Ksju [112]

Pair-bonding in a population of prairie voles can be prevented by . B) administering a drug that inhibits the brain receptor for vasopressin in the central nervous system (CNS) of males

<h3>what is pair bonding?</h3>

Pair bonding is an evolutionary feature that may be important for reproduction as well as individual and species survival.

The proximate processes underlying many types of good social behaviours, such as pair bonding and maternal-infant behaviour, are shared by brain and endocrine systems.

The brain systems that rely on peptides, such as oxytocin, vasopressin, opioids, CRH, and associated hormones, are at the heart of pair bonding.

Neuropeptides also help to integrate the autonomic and endocrine effects of pleasant social encounters with behavioural states that promote social bond creation and maintenance.
