Answer:

B

Explanation:

once neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft, it binds to its receptors at the postsynaptic membrane. voltage gated calcium channels open and allows calcium to flow in, an action potential is generated immediately and reaches the end of the axon

Answer:

a. IV, III, I, II.

Explanation:

This is a  pathway of  transmission of action potential   across a synaptic gap of  pre-synaptic and postsynaptic neurons, or from pre-synaptic neuron and a muscles cells at a neuromuscular junction.

It is initiated with the  arrival  of action potential at the pre-synaptic neuron, which makes voltage gated Ca+ ions to open, vesicles migrates towards the tip of the pre-synaptic neurons, fused and empty  contents into the synaptic cleft, the neurotransmitter pass across the synaptic cleft to reach the post synaptic neuron.

 The  action potential  transmitted  across the synapse  can either be Inhibitory post synaptic or excitatory postsynaptic potential.

The neurotransmitter  released into the synapse  binds with the receptors on the postsynaptic neurons. And this enabled the Act.potential to  be propagated to the postsynaptic neuronal axon, to open  many Voltage-Gated Sodium channels for depolarization, and propagation of action potential.

The neurotransmitters can be exictatory or inhibitory. In either case they are broken down to components molecules, by enzymes after short period of binding with the postsynaptic potential. This is important  so that they do not exert too much  effects  on the post synaptic  receptors which  may affect the action  potential  in the effectors or  in the postsynaptic neurons functions.

Compare and contrast endocytosis and exocytosis.<br><br> please help!!!
Dmitry [639]
Endocytosis is the process of capturing a substance or particle from outside the cell by engulfing it with the cell membrane, and bringing it into the cell. Exocytosis describes the process of vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane and releasing their contents to the outside of the cell. The main similarity is that both exocytosis and endocytosis are involved in transporting big molecules across the membrane using a vesicle and needs energy. The basic differences are that : 1) Endocytosis brings materials to the inside of the cell while exocytosis takes them out. Exocytosis, on the other hand, is described as the process of fusing vesicles with the plasma membrane to release their contents to the external environment of the cell.

Which vector would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy and why?
Shkiper50 [21]

The vector that would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy is adeno-associated virus for it has valuable reasons. First, it is huge enough to carry the gene, second, it will infect the right type of tissue, third, it will not cause an immune response and lastly, it infects the particular cells that divide irregularly. Therefore, this vector will definitely treat cystic fibrosis for it can target affected cells, which is a great help in the normal functioning of an organ.
