Answers and Explanations:

Frogs and toads actually have a lot of differences, granted they look alike.

Frogs:

Frogs tend to have much longer legs than their body, which are made for jumping. They also tend to have much smoother, slimier skin. Frogs also tend to have longer front legs as well. Not only that, but frogs prefer to hop rather than walk. Frogs also sometimes have bigger eyes, unlike a toad. Because frogs need to stay slimy and smooth, frogs are most commonly and only found in areas where there is water, or where it is very damp.

Toads:

Toads tend to have shorter, more stubby front and back legs. Toads also tend to have more dry, wart-like skin. They also like to crawl more than hop around. These amphibians also tend to have eyes that are not as big as a toad. You are also more likely to see a toad than a frog because they tend to wander away from water, unlike a frog.

I hope this helps.

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Read each description below regarding the dual innervation of the ANS. Then click and drag each into the appropriate category base on whether it is an example of antagonic or cooperative innervation.

The sympathetic division stimulates mucus production by salivary glands while the parasympathetic division stimulates enzyme secretion.

The sympathetic division stimulates am increase in heart rate while the parasympathetic division stimulates a decrease in heart rate.

During sex, the parasympathetic division stimulates arousal while the sympathetic division stimulates orgasm.

The parasympathetic division constricts the pupils while the sympathetic division dilates the pupils.

Antagonistic:

Cooperative:

Answer: Antagonistic: The sympathetic division stimulates am increase in heart rate while the parasympathetic division stimulates a decrease in heart rate; The parasympathetic division constricts the pupils while the sympathetic division dilates the pupils.

Cooperative: The sympathetic division stimulates mucus production by salivary glands while the parasympathetic division stimulates enzyme secretion.; During sex, the parasympathetic division stimulates arousal while the sympathetic division stimulates orgasm.

Explanation: The peripheral nervous system is divided in Somatic Nervous System (SNS) and Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). The first is responsible for sensory input and voluntary motion.

Autonomic Nervous System is divided into Sympathetic and Parasympathetic divisions and is controls the fight-or-flight and rest-and-digest situations. Usually, an organ with sympathetic and parasympathetic innervations have antagonic function, such as the heart rate - one system causes the heart rate to increase while the other stimulates the rate to decrease. However there are cases in which the combination of the 2 systems cause an increase of stimulation, producing similar effects.

Analysing each category above, it is deductable that when the sympathetic stimulates mucus production and parasympathetic, enzyme secretion and when the parasympathetic stimulates arousal and sympathetic, orgasm, in both cases, they have cooperative innervation.

On the other hand, when sympathetic stimulates increase in heart rate and parasympathetic, decrease in the rate, as stated before, and one stimulates constriction of the pupils and the other, dilation of the them, those are examples of having antagonic innervation.

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

A coral reef can be described as an ecosystem of the ocean which is made up by reef-building corals. Coral reefs benefit the environment in a number of ways, one of them is protecting the shoreline. Coral reefs tend to absorb most of the waves from the ocean and so help the coastline from erosion. It reduces the chances of ocean water waves to destroy the crops and buildings nearby and hence prevents erosion.

The Shiga and diphtheria toxins target __________ in host cells.

klio [65]

Answer:

Protein synthesis.

Explanation:

Shiga toxin is expressed by the genome of the lamboid prophages. Diphtheria toxin is a type of toxin that causes diphtheria in the individual.

The shiga and diphtheria toxin are proves to be harmful in the humans and causes harmful disease. Both these toxins inhibit the protein synthesis or translation of the host cell. The inhibition of protein synthesis causes drastic harmful effects in the individual.

Thus, the answer is protein synthesis.
