During childbirth, the baby pushes on the wall of the uterus. this is detected

During childbirth, the baby pushes on the wall of the uterus. this is detected by pressure receptors that signal the brain to release oxytocin. if this is a positive feedback process, select the likely next step.

The next step is likely to be; Oxytocin causes the uterus to contract, further stimulating the receptors, and releasing more oxytocin from the brain. Oxytocin is a vital hormone in human that acts on organs in the body, such as breasts and uterus, they act as chemical messenger in the brain, controlling childbirth and lactation, and aspects of human behavior. During childbirth the hormone causes the uterus muscle to contract during labor so that the body can be pushed out.

During complex and demanding tasks, teens ________________. overload their frontal lobes overload their flocculonodular lobe distribute the workload evenly throughout the brain distribute the workload evenly between abducens nucleus and globose nucleus
Solution 1
During complex and demanding tasks, teens distribute the workload evenly throughout the brain.  In teenagers the prefrontal cortex is still developing and therefore they may rely on a part of the brain called the amygdala to make decisions and solve problems more than adults. The prefrontal cortex communicates with other sections of the brain through connections called the synapses.
Solution 2

Answer:

The correct answer is: overload their frontal lobes.

Explanation:

The frontal lobes are one of the four major brain lobes found in humans and are located at the front of each hemisphere. Frontal lobes are responsible for many important things, such as voluntary movement, numeracy skills, language and decision making.

The frontal lobes start developing in childhood and keep maturing until early adulthood. Their front part, the prefrontal cortex, is the latest to develop and is responsible for controlling impulses - which explains why kids and teenagers are much more impulsive than adults.

The flocculonodular lobe is in the cerebellum and is involved in moving the head and the eyes in order to maintain balance.

The abducens nucleus (located in the brain stem) coordinates the movements of the two eyes, and the globose nucleus (located in the cerebellum) coordinates the connection between the cerebellum and the rest of the central nervous system.

Question
During fertilization in multicellular organisms, a sperm cell fuses with an egg cell to form a zygote. then, the zygote begins to divide. first, one cell becomes two, then two cells become four, four cells become eight and so on and so forth until a large ball of identical cells is formed. at this point, the ball begins to change. a space forms in the middle, and the cells are pushed inward to form layers. if cell differentiation begins after this phase, what most likely triggers this process?
Solution 1
The process is likely to be triggered by the formation of the layers. Zygote is the structure that forms when a sperm fertilizes an egg, the zygote then divides many times by the process of mitosis to form an embryo. That is, it forms two cells, then four, then eight and so on, up to the eight stage the cells are identical and are called embryonic stem cell, which then develop into any specialized cells type by differentiation, that the growing embryo needs, such as the nerve cells, blood cells, among others.
Solution 2

the formation of the layers

Question
Which event marks the beginning of DNA replication? A. Formation of replication bubble B. Unwinding of DNA helix C. Formation of replication fork
Solution 1
The correct answer is letter C.  

The formation of replication fork marks the event of the beginning of DNA replication. In the cell, the DNA replication begins in the genome where DNA unwinds and produces new strands. This then results into replication forks that grow apart in the process of cell division.

Question
Overinflated tires and underinflated tires can both cause __________.
Solution 1

Overinflated tires and underinflated tires can both cause tire wear. Answer: tire tread wear.

Over time, overinflated tires lead to excessive inner tire tread wear, decreasing the overall lifespan of tires. An overinflated tire is more like to burst.

An underinflated tire is more like to roll  The tire pressure is too low, and too much of the tire is in contact with the road.  The underinflated tires generate heat, causes internal friction in the tire causing premature outer tread wear.

Solution 2

C. reduced tread wear (DriversEd.com)

Question
Flamingos are born white, but they turn pink because of the food they eat; this is an example of how ____________ , a physical factor, can affect phenotypes
Solution 1
Flamingos are born white, but they turn pink because of the food they eat; this is an example of how environment, a physical factor, can affect phenotypes.

The phenotype is the visible physical or biochemical characteristic of an individual organism which is determined by both genetic factors (genotype) and environmental influences. There are many environmental factors and they include diet, climate, illness and stress. If environmental factors have a strong influence this means the phenotypic plasticity is high (capable to change).
