The reason why interdisciplinary science is important to
society is because of the following reasons; It has incorporate sources of
knowledge and it is a way of increasing our knowledge. This science has made
people realize and learn more things than they actually know and it made people
understand things around them without having to actually think an explanation
behind it.
Answer:
<h2>b. It allows spinal nerves to exit the spinal cord. </h2>
Explanation:
- The vertebral column is an important characteristic of vertebrates.
- The formation of the vertebral column takes place from the notochord in the vertebrate.
- The vertebral column is also known as the spine or generally called the backbone.
- It forms the spinal canal that is responsible to provide protection to the spinal cord.
- The vertebral column is divided into many regions into human beings and some other organisms according to its function and position.
- It has many functions such as protection of the spinal cord, allow passes of spinal nerves and some other.
<u>Answer</u>:- Active transport
<u>Explanation</u>:-
There are two types of membrane transports
1. Passive transport - this type of transport occurs without the input of any energy and the molecules move along the concentration gradients that is from <em>high concetration to low concentration.</em>
2. Active transport- this type of transport takes place to move the molecules against the concentration gradient that is from <em>low concentration to high concentration.</em>
<em>The active transport is of two types:</em>
1. <em>Primary active transport-</em> in this type of transport <em>ATP</em> is used as an energy source to move the substances against the concentration gradient.
2.<em>Secondary active transport</em> - in this type of transport the gradient formed by the active transport is utilized and it involves the movement of 2 substances at a time aross the membrane. That is the movement of one molecule is coupled to another.
- The membrane proteins that are associated with active transport are called as <em>carrier proteins</em>. These proteins have a binding site for the molecules that they transport. Once they bind to the specific molecules, a conformation change is induced and this leads to the transport of the molecule across the membrane.
So, the <em>active transport is basically responsible for utilizing the energy from ATP and carrier proteins to move the substances across the membrane against their concentration gradient i.e. from low concentration to high concentration.</em>
People are often able to live in a coma for several years because parts of the body that are not under conscious control continue to function. This situation best reflects the importance of the
A) central nervous system
B) autonomic nervous system
C) somatic nervous system
D) forebrain
Answer:
B) autonomic nervous system
Explanation:
The autonomic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system. It comes under the motor division of the peripheral nervous system. The function of this division of the nervous system is to deliver the motor information from the central nervous system to the smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands. The responses produced by these muscles and glands are not controlled by the will or conscious of the individuals.
Due to the functioning of the autonomic nervous system, the person under the coma could perform the activities such as breathing, pumping of heart to deliver the oxygen to the body cells, etc. and stay live.
