In the area with the largest sea lamprey population, a few things are done to reduce and control this population. Lampricide, Currently, the primary method to control sea lampreys utilizes a lampricide, called TFM, that kills sea lamprey larvae in streams with little or no impact on other fish.   Barriers,Barriers have been constructed to block the upstream migration of spawning sea lampreys; most barriers allow other fish to pass with minimal disruption. Barriers have eliminated lampricide treatment on some streams and reduced the stream distance requiring treatment on others. The Sterile-Male-Release-Technique, The sterile-male-release-technique aims to reduce the success of sea lamprey spawning. Each year male sea lampreys are collected and sterilized. When they are released back into streams the sterile males compete with normal males for spawning females. Lastly trapping, Sea lamprey traps are operated at various locations throughout the Great Lakes, often in association with barriers. Traps are designed to catch lampreys as they travel upstream to spawn.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Sensory neurons are the neurons present in the nerves which can convert the external stimuli into an electrical signal and can transmit the signals from the organs to the central nervous system.

The structure of sensory neuron in pseudounipolar that is at one end it has dendrites and another end transmits the signals to the CNS. The cell bodies  (nucleus) of these sensory neurons are located in the structures called ganglia located outside the CNS.

Thus, True is the correct answer.

What type of muscle assists an agonist by causing a like movement or by stabilizing a joint over which an agonist acts? a synerg
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-a synergist

Explanation:

In the musculoskeletal system, the muscles to produce a movement work in group or pairs like hamstrings and quadriceps or biceps or triceps.  The muscles which work is known as an agonist or prime mover.

The muscle which helps prime mover by moving in the same direction and at the same time is known as synergists. The synergists produce a similar motion as the prime mover and also stabilizes the joints which hold the position for smooth movement of agonist.

Thus, synergist is the correct answer.

1. Action potential reaches the axon terminal and depolarizes it.

2. Depolarization opens voltage-gated calcium channels, enabling influx of Ca into the neuron.

3. Calcium binds to specialized proteins on vesicles (containing pre-made acetylcholine) and triggers them to fuse with the neuron membrane at the synapse.

4. Exocytosis of acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft occurs.

5. Acetylcholine diffuses across the synapse and binds to nicotinic receptors on the end plate of the myocyte.

6. Activated nicotinic receptors, themselves ion channels, cause cation influx into the myocyte and generate an end plate potential. This eventually gives rise to the full depolarization within the myocyte that enables contraction.
