Answer:
"Action potential is a rapid rise and subsequent fall in voltage or membrane potential across a cellular membrane with a characteristic pattern."
It is the mode through which a neuron transports electrical signals.
Explanation:
- Option - (a) is the best choice to choose from,
- <u>The refractory period :</u>
A second action potential cannot occur until the membrane has recovered or reestablished, this is the refractory period. The absolute refractory period coincides with inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels which makes it impossible to generate another nerve impulse.
Answer:
The correct answer is D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.
Explanation:
<u>Cholesterol</u> is a steroid lipid and is a constituent of biological membranes. It regulates the <em>fluidity</em> of the membrane (so, option C is not correct). Since cell membranes are composed of another type of lipids, the phospholipids, which form a bilayer, cholesterol distributes between the phospholipid tails and avoids these molecules pack each other forming rigid clusters. Thus, the option which better explains the effect is <em>D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.</em>
Answer:
B. Cartilaginous fish
Explanation:
Sharks have a cartilaginous skeleton. Cartilage is less dense than bone which allows sharks to move quickly through the water without using too much energy.
Answer: False
Reason: We Use Minerals In our day to day life, when it comes to cooking, or burning. We use Salt to cook amazing meals, and some pots and pans have minerals built in to them so that they last longer over the years you cook with them. When we burn in the fireplace or in the backyard, some of us use coal and light it up, and sometimes, we use minerals to make buildings. In one of my neighboring towns, their City Hall has little mineral pieces built into the City Hall. I hope this helps, and happy holidays! :)
