NERVOUS SYSTEM The human body’s activities are regulated by two systems – the nervous system and the endocrine system. Although both systems control body functions‚ their methods differ. The nervous system is the body’s information gatherer‚ storage center and control system. Its primary function is to collect information about the external conditions in relation to the body’s external state‚ to analyze this information‚ and to initiate appropriate responses to satisfy certain needs; the most

and can produce their own food through photosynthesis. Not all have to use sunlight to induce that process. Cyanobacteria give out oxygen. Proteobacteria- These live on the roots of some platns and transfer nitrogen from the air to the soil. This phylum contain bavteria like salmonella and E. Coli which are very dangerous‚ but most others are harmless. Firmicutes- contains a wide variety of bacteria that has really thick cell walls. This contains the bacteria Bacillus anthracis causing anthrax

a vast majority of land plants and early-diverging lineages of liverworts suggests that the origin of AM probably coincided with the origin of land plants. Classes include Archaeosporales‚ Diversisporales‚ Glomerales‚ Paraglomerales‚ part of the phylum Globermycota‚ and part of the kingdom fungi (species grow Arbuscular Mycorrhizae) * Fossil evidence and DNA sequence analysis by mycologists show arbuscular mycorrhizae first appeared approximately 400-460 million years ago.

Apicomplexa is a phylum made up almost entirely of parasites. Apicomplexans are distinguished by their unique method of entering host cells. Apicomplexans are a monophyletic group composed entirely of parasitic species. This species is the best known and probably the largest of parasitic protists. There are about 4‚000 known species‚ but this is certainly just an understatement of the actual number. Of the described species seven genera infect humans; these include the following: Plasmodium‚ Babesia

major mass extinctions and several minor events have led to large and sudden drops in biodiversity. The Phanerozoic eon (the last 540 million years) marked a rapid growth in biodiversity via the Cambrian explosion—a period during which nearly every phylum of multicellular organisms first appeared. The next 400 million years included repeated‚ massive biodiversity losses classified as mass extinction events. In the Carboniferous‚ rainforest collapse led to a great loss of plant and animal life.
