Answer:

Somatic nervous

Peripheral

Explanation:

The nervous system can be divided into two subdivisions:

  1. Central nervous system
  2. Peripheral nervous system

The Central nervous system (CNS) is formed by the brain and spinal cord while the Peripheral nervous system (PNS) connects the CNS to all the other parts of the body. <u>The PNS is the one who carry messages from the organs and senses to the CNS. </u>So, when we're sleeping this <u>peripheral nervous system is active</u> and carrying messages from our organs and senses (like ear and touch) through our body.

The PNS has two subdivisions:

  1. somatic nervous system
  2. autonomic nervous system.

The first one is in charge on sensory and motor information to and from the CNS. The second one is in charge of our internal glands and organs.

The sentence of the problem mentions that when we are sleeping we can still perceive sounds and touch. The Somatic Nervous system is the one in charge of sensory information (sounds and touch) .

Therefore: While we are sleeping, we can still perceive sounds and touch. this means that our bodies keep parts of the <u>somatic nervous</u> subdivision of the <u>peripheral</u> nervous system active during sleep.

Golf courses make use of fertilizers to keep the grass green and healthy. Using your knowledge of osmosis, explain how applying
Nostrana [21]
Osmosis is the diffusion of water. Water tends to diffuse to the area with a higher concentration of solute. (Particles) In this case, Im assuming the fertilizer is the solute because it contains chemicals. Therefore, since water tends to diffuse to higher concentration of solute, the water in the grass will diffuse out to dilute the fertilizer on the surface of the grass. Without water, the grass will be dehydrated and shrivel up and die. Hopefully you find my answer helpful!
