What is the correct sequence of events along an axon that follows a membrane reaching threshold potential?

Biology
1 answer:
Oksi-84 [34.3K]1 year ago
8 0

As sodium ions diffuse inward, sodium channels open.

Membrane depolarization occurs.

Potassium ions spread outward as potassium channels open.

Membrane repolarization occurs.

<h3>What happens along an axon in the right order ?</h3><h3 />

An action potential, which is a fast change in membrane potential, develops when the membrane potential of a neuron's axon hillock hits threshold. There are three steps to this shifting change in membrane potential. Depolarization occurs first, then repolarization, and then there is a brief phase of hyperpolarization.

  • A depolarizing current causes an explosion of electrical activity known as the action potential. This indicates that the resting potential shifts toward 0 mV as a result of some action (a stimulus).

There is a block of genes in the order ABCDEFG on a chromosome. A duplication takes place between, but not including, genes B an
anastassius [24]

Explanation:

ABCDECDEFG

Duplications involve the production of one or multiple copies of a specified region of the genetic code

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly condensed and wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells. This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained.

Conversely in meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved through meiotic divisions, producing 4 (n) germ cells (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell. During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes.

Duplications involve the production of one or multiple copies of a specified region of the genetic code.

Like other events, such as crossing over during mitosis and meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This  variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles, which may confer adaptations that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage.

IN YOUR OWN WORDS, DEFINE CONVECTION?
Step2247 [10]
Convection is cool things sinking and hot things rising. So for example when you have the heat on the upstairs is always hotter than downstairs because heat rises and continues to go in circles until the whole house it heated up.

Which of the following statements is true about mitochondria?
valkas [14]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. The size and coding capacity of the mitochondrial DNA varies considerably in different organisms, and encodes rRNAs, tRNAs and essential mitochondrial proteins.
