Technological advancement of the society causes energy crisis in different parts of the world. one group of scientists has devel

oped a plan to set up tidal power plants in different parts of the world to reduce the energy crisis. which of these statements best describes a drawback in the scientists' plan?

Limited installation sites best describes a drawback in the scientists' plan because tidal energy is not present everywhere.

<h3>Describes a drawback in the scientists' plan?</h3>

The big disadvantage of tidal power is that there are limited installation sites for it. It is expensive as well as the turbines can adversely impact the surrounding ecosystem.

So we can conclude that limited installation sites best describes a drawback in the scientists' plan because tidal energy is not present everywhere.

Once a neuron is stimulated and the membrane potential is depolarized, the depolarized axonal membrane is helped to return to it
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cell membrane separates the cell from the outer environment. The extracellular fluid contains the sodium ions (Na+), chloride ions (Cl-), while intracellular fluid contains potassium (K +) and negative anions.

The potential difference arises when the membrane is selectively permeable to some ions. The resting potential is -70mV.  

When the neurons get excited, the sodium ions start to enter by sodium channels.  

Now there are more positive ions inside the cell membrane. It disturbs the resting potential i.e. -70mV. This stage is known as depolarization.

When the inside environment of the cell is more positively charged, the potassium ions start to move out of the cell. It goes out by the voltage-gated channels. Thus resting stage is maintained and it is known as repolarization.

But the initial stability of the cell membrane has to be maintained. To restore the resting stage, the sodium ions start to move out of the membrane and potassium ions enter into the cells again. This is an active transport and has done by the Na+ - K+ pump. Here 3 sodium ions move out and 2  potassium ions pumped into the cell through the plasma membrane.  

Thus the resting potential regains. The potassium ions come back into the cells against the concentration gradient and ATP provides the energy for this phenomena.

It is easier to read while shaking your head than while shaking the page. why
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The reason why it is much easier to read while shaking your head rather than reading and shaking the page is because of the vestibular ocular reflex, it is because when reading and shaking your head the vestibular ocular reflex were able to respond faster than prolong and slow movements.

What are four characteristics of a good extraction solvent?
ella [17]

A good extraction solvent should have a strong solubilizing capability for the compound of interest, it should be immiscible or only weakly misciblewith the matrix solvent ( the first solution or mixture containing the compound from its natural source, e.g., water/ether. water/ chloroform, etc. If possible the extraction solvent should be non-flammable, non-toxic or of low toxicity, reasonably volatile, and of low eco-impact. Inexpensive and available, of high purity , and shelf stable. If one is determining the compound of interest by UV/Vis spectrophotometry or fluorescence, the solvent should have extremely low absobance or emission at the wavelength of analysis

• high solubility for the solute and low solubility for the carrier liquid.

• density difference vs. the carrier liquid greater than 150 kg/m. ...

• mid-level interfacial tension (5–30 dyne/cm)

• high resistance to thermal degradation.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer: muscle contraction of sustained force resulting from repeated action potentials. (Option A)

Explanation: Tetanus is also called physiologic tetanus. Tetanus refers to the contraction of the muscle, which is established when the motor nerve that supply nerves to a skeletal muscle produces action potentials at a very high degree.

However, tetanic contraction is usually a normal process (such as when carrying a heavy box). Also, muscles can be shorten, lengthen or remain constant length during tetanic contractions.
