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.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

<em>Escherichia coli </em>- Facultative anaerobe

<em>Micrococcus luteus </em>- Obligate aerobe

<em>Clostridium sporogenes</em> - Obligate anaerobe

Explanation:

In simple terms, obligate aerobes are organisms that require oxygen to grow and metabolize molecules such as fats and sugars to produce energy. Many animals fall under this category. Other examples are <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis </em>and <em>Micrococcus luteus</em>.

Facultative anaerobes are organisms (usually bacteria) that can grow both in the presence and absence of oxygen. The most example of this are the <em>Escherichia coli</em><em>.</em>

Obligate anaerobes are organisms (usually microorganisms) that cannot survive when exposed to normal atmospheric concentration of oxygen. Examples are <em>Clostridium sporogenes</em><em> </em>and <em>Clostridium botulinum.</em>

Digestive cells produce and secrete many enzymes that break down ingested food. these cells have a large number of ribosomes ___
tankabanditka [31]
The answer to this question would be: on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Digestive cell produces many enzymes which were made by protein. Endoplasmic reticulum has a role in protein synthesis. It is important to have many rough endoplasmic reticulum to accommodate the protein synthesis function so that the digestive organ can produce enough enzyme

Which factor most likely caused animals and plants in India to differ greatly from species in nearby southeast Asia?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

India was a separate continent until 45 million years ago

Explanation:

India was part of the Gondwanaland continent which was one of the two remnants of Pangaea, while Asia was part of Laurasia, the other remnant of Pangaea. Because these two land masses were separate, the animals and plants were evolving separately for millions of years. India further separated from Gondwanaland, and it was actually a very large island for millions of years, resulting in isolation and development of unique animals and plants because of it. As India was moving it reached Asia and collided with it, thus becoming one land mass. Some Asian species managed to get in India, but mostly in its northern parts, while the central and southern parts remained dominated by the indigenous species. The Himalayan Mountain Range that formed because of the collision also helped in preserving lot of the indigenous species as it became a natural barrier that most species can not go through.
