Answer:

Brainstem

Explanation:

During REM sleep , the electrical activity of our muscles get reduced or paralysed which is primarly due to blocking of messages by the brainstem.

Trigeminal motor neurons found in the brain cell helps in moving the muscles but during REM sleep, the two neurotransmitter receptors namely GABAA and glycine are paralysed by the brain stem and hence no muscle activity could be observed during the REM sleep

Indicate weather the label identifies an adaptive or innate form of defense
suter [353]

Innate: keratinized epithelium

stratified squamous epithelium hypodermal areolar connective tissue antigen presenting cells major histocompatibility complexes complement (antibody -dependent pathway )

Innate or non-specific response is the first defense against invaders. Components of this response include physical (e.g. skin . mucosa) and chemical barriers against pathogens and cells such as Natural Killer cells, macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells, mast cells, basophils, eosinophils. Innate response reacts immediately.

Adaptive: immunoglobulin plasma cells agglutinin

helper t cells memory t cells cytotoxic t cells cd4+cells

t lymphocytes

Adaptive immune response or specific response is specific to the pathogen presented and mediated by lymphocytes, B and T cells. Adaptive immune response creates immunological memory after the first, initial l response to a specific pathogen which leads to enhanced response.

Drag labels at left into the appropriate targets on the right to complete this concept map about oxidative phosphorylation
almond37 [142]

*The key function of each of the two photosystems is to absorb light and convert the energy of the absorbed light into redox energy, which drives electron transport.

In PS II (the first photosystem in the sequence), P680 is oxidized (which in turn oxidizes water), and the PS II primary electron acceptor is reduced (which in turn reduces the electron transport chain between the photosystems).

In PS I, the PS I primary electron acceptor is reduced (which in turn reduces other compounds that ultimately reduce NADP+ to NADPH), and P700 is oxidized (which in turn oxidizes the electron transport chain between the photosystems).

vivado [14]
<span>This is very obviously, false. Because of not getting regular exercise Claire would need to either maintain or lower her caloric intake. If she wishes to maintain her weight and eat more in her day, then a regular exercise plan needs to be implemented into her routine.</span>

The Earth is about 4.6 billion years old. However, the oldest sea floor is only about 180 million years old. What do you think i
natita [175]

Answer:

The seafloor is only 180 million years old due to the process of subduction. The floor of the sea's tends to get colder and denser with the passage of time. At a certain time, the seafloor becomes so dense that it sinks in the upper mantle. The Earth's crust cannot undergo this process and hence has oldest rocks. We can say that the seafloor is less than 180 million years old because it is typically recycled back into the mantle of the Earth.
