What is open chain hydrocarbon?
They contain open chain of carbon atoms in their molecules.they are also known as alicyclic hydrocarbons
What do nerves do?
A neuron is like a relay switch - it receives signals from other neurons and depending on the nature of the signals, the neuron may then 'fire' a signal of its own, stay silent, or become inhibited. This is like binary code - i.e.,"on" and "off" states. A neuron can oscillate between these states in a variety of frequencies. So the range of computations that even a single neuron can perform is impressive. Now, consider that this sort of thing is happening billions of times every second all throughout the nervous system and you can intuitively grasp just how complex the patterns of signals would become. In fact, somewhere in those patterns is what we would call our 'mind' and our 'intelligence' and so on. And this is all because of a large collection of neurons (~100 billion at birth) relaying signals to each other through a multitude of pathways (trillions).
What vegetables and or other foods contain long chain carbohydrates?
Complex carbohydrates have long chains of sugars. The vegetables and other foods that contain long chain carbohydrates include potatoes, swede, cabbage and wholegrain bread.
What are medium-chain triglycerides?
Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are a special class of fatty acids. Normal fats and oils contain long-chain fatty acids (LCTs). Compared to these fatty acids, MCTs are much shorter in length.
Does carbon atoms contain molecules?
No. A Carbon atom, like all atoms, only contain Subatomic Particles. A Molecule is a chain of atoms linked together with an atomic bond.
What is the chain of events for a conscious response starting with stimulus?
It is called the response chain If u want the equation. Is: situmles-receptor -sensory neurons - CNS(central nervous system brain & spinal cords )- motor neurons - effctors - response
What are the thin chain-like extensions of the neurons called?
Axons
An organic compounds contain the chain of?
They may contain chain of carbon atoms.
Does the autonomic nervous system use a two efferent neuron chain or a two afferent chain?
two efferent neurons
Ventral nerve cord function in grasshoppers?
The ventral nerve cord, as its name suggests, is a cord of nervous tissue that runs the length of the animal in the lower part of its body. Grasshoppers are segmented animals, and each segment is controlled by its own ganglion. A ganglion is a package of neurons, containing anything from a few dozen to hundreds of thousands of neurons. The ganglia of each segment are joined to their neighbours by the interganglionic connectives(although some ganglia are fused directly together). Thus the ventral nerve cord consists of this chain of linked ganglia. http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~wjh/jumping/motorsys.htm
Do both parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems operate with a chain of two motor neurons?
True
Does a reverberating circuit involve an incoming signal that travels along a chain of neurons and quickly dies out?
No, a reverberating circuit does not involve an incoming signal that travels along a chain of neurons and quickly dies out. A reverberating circuit is a circular circuit that returns a signal to its source.
Which nervous system subdivision is a chain of two motor neurons consisting of a preganglionic and a postganglionic neuron?
autonomic
Postganglionic fibers that innervate targets in the body wall or thoracic cavity originate on neurons within?
sympathetic chain ganglia
Does a food chain contain carnivores?
Yes it does in most
Are chain letters spam?
Yes, they can be considered spam. Some of the email chain letters contain a virus.
How many carbons do long-chain fatty acids contain?
The long chain fatty acids generally contain between four and six carbons. This is why they generally have high boiling points.
