<span>Water covers around 70% of the Earth's surface and its high specific heat plays a very important role as it is able to absorb a lot of heat without a significant rise in the temperature. When temperatures decrease, the heat which is stored is released, restraining a rapid drop in temperature. The combined effect of these processes is a buffering of temperature on the Earth.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
The Chondrichthyes is a class that comprises the cartilaginous fishes such as batoids, ratfish, sharks and others, The Chondrichthyes and the Osteichthyes also known as bony fish were distinguished in early classification but it was not clear at that time when bony skeletons appeared in the vertebrates.
Traces of bone tissues that are found in fossil and living Chondrichthyes are suggested that these cartilaginous fishes derived after the origin of the bony skeleton in vertebrates.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
Answer:
Which of the following situations would be most likely to engage the anterior cingulate cortex?
A waiter walks over to your table at a restaurant and holds an open menu in front of you.
You walk into the elevator of your apartment building and press the button for your floor.
You enter your classroom and find someone sitting in your usual seat.
A good friend asks you to remind him of your telephone number.
Explanation:
In order to meet the demand of the surrounding environment by adjusting the motor outputs from the brain to the environments ,a part of the emotion control part of the brain( limbic system) called the anterior cingulate cortex is responsible for this.
Anatomically, the limbic system is made up of the primarily the amygdala, hippocampus, thalamus, hypothalamus, basal ganglia and cingulate gyrus.
Based on the this its(anterior cingulate cortex) functions are formation of emotion in the limbic system, and possessing of memory and learning.
it is also a major parts of of pain networks for pain modulation and perception.
Therefore whenever there is change in the environment from the prestored condition in the brain,(e.g the usual seat in the class room occupied above) the anterior cingulate cortex adjust the motor input from the brain to adapt to the new environment to take an action,whih in this case leads to the reclaiming of the seat or any other necessary proactive action.
