The answer is the dendrites offer a big apparent area for links from other neurons. The dendrites are the main open or input areas and offer an enormous surface area for receiving signals from other neurons. They have spines appendages in which come to close interaction with synapses with other neurons.

The illustration shows one of the ways resources are removed from the deep sea. There are many confusing regulations that limit
Sonbull [250]
The United Nations Conventions on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) stipulates that seabed area, which is not within the landmark of any particular country should be regarded as a common natural heritage. Consequently, any mineral found in such an area can be used by anyone. 

However, because of the abundant presence of sea area, and the way national boundaries often conflict, coupled with the problem of illegal mining practices, such laws are difficult to enforce, and so these regulations are not standardized yet.

Some possible impacts of ilegal seabed mining are:
1. Destabilisation of oceanic systems.
2. It constitutes danger to the organisms living in the hydrothermal vents.

Most fertilizers contain ammonia. Ammonia (NH3) forms when hydrogen reacts with nitrogen. Which balanced equation represents amm
Lana71 [14]
<span>The balanced equation for ammonia (NH3) is 3H2 + N2 ď 2NH3. This equation starts from H2 + N2 ď NH3. We have 1 N and 3 H on the right side (the product side) of the equation, so we multiply each by 2 to get 2 N and 6 H. We do this so that we don’t have an odd number of H atoms. We then balance the left side (the reactant side) of the equation with the right side, N is already balanced, but we have to multiply H by 3 to get 6 H atoms (to match the right side of the equation.</span>
