Biology
1 answer:
Ber [7]3 years ago
5 0

Neuroeffector junctions are varicosities where motor neurons release neurotransmitters to non-neuronal target cells.  These junctions can be observed along the axon.

  • The motor nerve varicosities RELEASE neurotransmitters onto smooth muscle cells.

  • There are many varicosities along the axons of the neurons that feed smooth muscle cells.

  • When autonomic neurons are stimulated, varicosities release neurotransmitters along their axons.

  • These neurotransmitters then diffuse through the interstitial fluid to interact with receptors in the smooth muscle cells.

Describe the energy pyramid describe the biomass pyramid
kogti [31]
The energy pyramid describes decomposers compared to energy lost as heat. Primary producers start at 100% and it decreases to 10% at primary consumers, 1% at secondary, .1% at third level, and .01% at apex.
The biomass pyramid describes the total mass of an organism and as a biomass moves up, the overall mass is losing volume. This means it decreases as it moves from the bottom to the top.
