Answer:
they are Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ion channels.
Explanation:
Ionotropic acetylcholine receptors are also called nicotinic acetylcholine receptors because beside acetylcholine (Ch) they respond to nicotine. These receptors are primary receptors in muscle for motor nerve-muscle communication that controls muscle contraction.
Two molecules of ACh are required for receptor to open. Since the receptors are linked to ion channels, the channels open. Opening of the channel allows positively charged ions to move across it: sodium enters the cell and potassium exits.
The answer is B. Platypus, as they are mammals that lay eggs.
Answer:
(2) exchange food, oxygen, and waste between
mother and fetus
Explanation:
In most mammals like humans, the fetus produced as a result of the fertilization of the sperm and egg, develops in the uterus or womb of the female. However, this developing fetus cannot yet fend for what it requires for survival and is still dependent on the mother e.g nutrients, oxygen etc. How do this substances get to the fetus? Here comes the role of the PLACENTA.
Placenta is an organ in the uterus that serves as a connection between the mother and the fetus in her womb. The placenta enables the mother to pass digested nutrients to the fetus and exchange gases (oxygen and Carbondioxide) between them via the umbilical cord. The placenta also enables the mother remove waste produced by the fetus into her bloodstream.
Answer:
Haemoglobin; liver; binds; stored; bile duct; small intestine; lipids.
Explanation:
Serology can be defined as the study of blood and the reactions between antibodies and antigens in the blood.
In Biology, blood pH can be defined as a measure of the hydrogen ion (H¯) concentration of blood i.e the level of alkalinity or acidity of blood.
Basically, the normal blood pH of a human being should be between 7.35 and 7.45.
Hence, one of the ways in which the body regulates blood pH is with proteins. Proteins help regulate blood pH by accepting and releasing hydrogen ions. Typically, when the blood pH falls, the hydrogen ions (H¯) are accepted (absorbed) while hydrogen ions are released when the blood pH rises.
For example, a protein such as haemoglobin which makes up a composition of the red blood cells, binds an amount of acid required to regulate blood pH.
In the spleen, haemoglobin from red blood cells is broken down to form (unconjugated) bilirubin. Unconjugated bilirubin is insoluble in blood plasma so binds to albumens in the blood and is sent to the liver. Bilirubin binds with glucuronic acid to form conjugated bilirubin. It forms part of the bile, which is stored in the gall bladder. Food in the gut stimulates gall bladder contraction and the bile passes down the bile duct to the small intestine, where it aids in the digestion of lipids.
