The surface of the skin can be mapped into distinct regions, each served by a single spinal nerve: these regions are called:
a. receptors
b. interneurons
c. synaptic clefts
d. dermatomes

The correct answer is D. The surface of the skin can be mapped into distinct regions, each served by a single spinal nerve: these regions are called dermatomes.

Explanation:

A dermatome is the area of skin innervated by a single spinal nerve and its spinal ganglion. The cutaneous nerves are those that reach the skin, picking up the sensitivity of the skin. Each cutaneous nerve is distributed in a certain area of skin, called a dermatome.

A pair of posterior or sensory roots and a pair of anterior or motor roots arise from each cord segment, joining laterally at the level of the intervertebral foramen to form a mixed spinal nerve. Each of these innervates a strip of skin called a dermatome, so the body surface can be considered a true mosaic of these.

In the extremities the arrangement of dermatomes is more complicated because of the embryological rotation of the limbs as they grow from the trunk.

i dont know this but ask your teacher for !

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
