The subcellular structures of neuron that forms the basis for transmission of nerve impulses are the synaptic vesicles.

What are the steps in impulse transmission between neurons?

  • The action potential or nerve impulse reaches the <u>axon</u> of neuron and depolarises the membrane.
  • Voltage gated Calcium channels open .
  • Arrival of action potential causes the synaptic vesicle to attach to presynaptic membrane.
  • Calcium influx triggers release of neurotransmitter.
  • This neurotransmitters bind to postsynaptic membrane and new impulses are created.

Synaptic vesicle under resting condition:

  1. The neurotransmitter molecules are stored in synaptic vesicles.
  2. If the neurotransmitter leak from the vesicles, they are destroyed by enzymes.
  3. During resting condition, they are placed randomly.
  4. When an impulse reaches the axon, vesicles are arranged in the presynaptic membrane.

Thus from the above we can conclude that, synaptic vesicles are the subcellular structures in transmission of nerve impulses and , under resting condition they are placed randomly.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

B.

The flagellates and termites share an obligate mutualistic association

Explanation:

Organisms of same or different species tend to interact with one another in an ecosystem. The close interaction between two organisms is referred to as SYMBIOSIS. A type of symbiotic relationship is MUTUALISM, which is when both organisms benefits from the relationship.

However, mutualistic relationship can be of different types depending on how dependent the involved organisms are on each other. The example in this question illustrates OBLIGATE MUTUALISM, which is when the organisms involved in the mutualistic relationship depend on one another for survival. This is the case of the termites and the flaggelates where the termite depends on the flaggelate for enzymes that helps them digest cellulose while the flaggelates depend on termite for nourishment/food.

The termite will not survive if it doesn't get enzymes to digest its cellulose while the flaggelates will also not survive if they do not get nourished. Hence, the two organisms share an OBLIGATE MUTUALISTIC RELATIONSHIP.

Answer:

Pleurisy

Explanation:

Pleurisy is a medical condition caused by the inflammation of the pleura membranes. The pleural membranes are vital part of the respiratory system. These membranes which surround the lungs and lines the inner chest wall, help to give cushion and reduce friction in the lungs. When the pleural membranes become inflamed, the surfaces become tough and sticky, thereby causing the sharp pain the person feels in the chest while breathing.
