Answer:

Frogs have smooth or slimy skin that is moist, whereas toads have thicker, bumpy skin that is usually dry. All toads are poisonous, while frogs are not.

Answers and Explanations:

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

<u>Frogs:</u>

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.

<u>Toads:</u>

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.

What are the applications of human nervous cells?
Andreyy89

The human body is made up of trillions of cells. Cells of the nervous system, called nerve cells or neurons, are specialized to carry "messages" through an electrochemical process. The human brain has approximately 86 billion neurons. To learn how neurons carry messages, read about the action potential.

Neurons come in many different shapes and sizes. Some of the smallest neurons have cell bodies that are only 4 microns wide. Some of the biggest neurons have cell bodies that are 100 microns wide. (Remember that 1 micron is equal to one thousandth of a millimeter!).

Neurons are similar to other cells in the body because:

Neurons are surrounded by a cell membrane.

Neurons have a nucleus that contains genes.

Neurons contain cytoplasm, mitochondria and other organelles.

Neurons carry out basic cellular processes such as protein synthesis and energy production.

However, neurons differ from other cells in the body because:

Neurons have specialize cell parts called dendrites and axons. Dendrites bring electrical signals to the cell body and axons take information away from the cell body.

Neurons communicate with each other through an electrochemical process.

Neurons contain some specialized structures (for example, synapses) and chemicals (for example, neurotransmitters).

The Neuron

neuron

One way to classify neurons is by the number of extensions that extend from the neuron's cell body (soma).

bipolar neuron

Bipolar neurons have two processes extending from the cell body (examples: retinal cells, olfactory epithelium cells).

Pseudounipolar cells (example: dorsal root ganglion cells). Actually, these cells have 2 axons rather than an axon and dendrite. One axon extends centrally toward the spinal cord, the other axon extends toward the skin or muscle.

Multipolar neurons have many processes that extend from the cell body. However, each neuron has only one axon (examples: spinal motor neurons, pyramidal neurons, Purkinje cells).

Neurons can also be classified by the direction that they send information.

Sensory (or afferent) neurons: send information from sensory receptors (e.g., in skin, eyes, nose, tongue, ears) TOWARD the central nervous system.

Motor (or efferent) neurons: send information AWAY from the central nervous system to muscles or glands.

Interneurons: send information between sensory neurons and motor neurons. Most interneurons are located in the central nervous system.

Check out the Gallery of Neurons to see some pictures of real neurons or "Sidewalk Cells" to see photographs of neurons on the street.

There are several differences between axons and dendrites:

Explain how the VIH virus uses specific structures to enter the cell
Alona [7]

Answer:

When HIV infects a cell, it first attaches to and fuses with the host cell. Then the virus uses the host cell's machinery to convert the viral RNA into DNA and replicate itself. The new copies of HIV then leave the host cell and move on to infect other cells.

Heterocysts A. are found in nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria.B. are used to protect nitrogenase.C. produce catalase.D. generate oxy
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

E. are found in nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria AND are used to protect nitrogenase.

Explanation:

Heterocysts are specialized cellular compartments found in nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria. They provide the ideal anaerobic environment for nitrogen fixation since nitrogenase enzyme cant work in presence of oxygen. Hence, in a cyanobacteria both the oxygen requiring photosynthesis process and the  oxygen sensitive nitrogen fixation process takes place simultaneously.

Heterocysts have an additional cell wall made of glycolipid that provides a hydrophobic barrier to oxygen. They are involved in production of nitrogenase and other proteins that are required for nitrogen fixation. They also degrade photosystem II which is responsible for producing oxygen and produce proteins which remove any remaining oxygen.
