What is the systemic circuit?
In the systemic circuit, oxygenated blood is distributed to body tissues.The systemic circuit also distributes nutrients to the body tissues and removes waste.
Bulbs cells and switches are all circuit what?
components
What is the fatty substance that speeds up transmission of impulses and surrounds the axon of a neuron?
The fatty tissue surrounding the axon of a neuron is called myelin.
Which area of the brain is most susceptible to stimulation that produces pleasure?
The pleasure center of the brain is also called the rewards circuit. Some the brain areas impacted by pleasure include amygdala, nucleus accumbens, ventral tegmental area, cerebellum and the pituitary gland.
What is the pulmonary circuit?
The pulmonary circuit is the movement of oxygen depleted blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen and unload carbon dioxide.
A neuronal circuit that concentrates or directs a large number of incoming impulses to a rather small number of neurons is called?
Converging circuit
What is the difference between a diverging circuit and a converging circuit?
A diverging circuit is one neuron sending impulses to multiple post-synaptic neurons. A converging circuit is many neurons converging on one post-synaptic membrane.
How do cocaine and alcohol affect the brain?
Cocaine blocks the reuptake of dopamine and, to a lesser extent, norepinephrine and serotonin in the brain. This causes the accumulation of dopamine, leading to euphoria and excitation. The increased stimulation of dopaminergic neurons in the mesolimbic (reward) circuit leads to addiction. Alcohol binds with GABA receptors producing inhibitory effects on neural activity. This produces cognitive impairment and reduced anxiety (disinhibition). Activation of GABA receptors also produces postsynaptic dopamine release, which stimulates the mesolimbic circuit in the brain, producing euphoria and addiction.
What circuit types is exemplified by impulses that travel from a single neuron of the brain and activate a hundred or more motor neurons in the spinal cord?
Diverging circuits
What are three positives of the space program?
The U.S. Space Program including the Apollo Moon program, and NASA in general, had many positives including: National pride, National security, Ecomonic stimulation, Educational stimulation, New scientific knowledge, especially in planetary science, Technological stimulation. With respect to technological stimulation, specific developments included: Rocket motors, Weather satellites, Communications satellites, Reconnaissance satellites, GPS navigation system, Solar monitoring satellites, Electronic circuit miniaturization, and many, many more detailed technological developments.
Why is the circuit a circuit?
Because circuit is a circuit.
What is the Biologically Closed Electrical Circuit in the Venus Flytrap?
The rapid closing of the upper leaf of the Venus flytrap is one of the fastest in the plant kingdom. The electrical stimulus between a midrib and a lobe closes the Venus flytrap upper leaf without mechanical stimulation of trigger hairs.
What is a circuit with no load?
An open circuit or a short-circuit (if that circuit is complete).
Closed path where electric current can flow is called a?
I guess Electric Circuit....
What type of circuit has more than one circuit on a wire a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit is :)
How is a circuit diagram related to a closed circuit?
A circuit diagram could be related to a closed circuit if the diagram is of a closed circuit.
How is a series circuit and a parallel circuit like their circuit names?
A series circuit is actually in series, but a parallel circuit, is Parallel
