of the skin.
Biology

kotegsom [21]3 years ago
4 0

Human skin color is a polygenic trait, which means that multiple gene loci (with different alleles) are involved in its expression. It has been shown that there more than 350 genetic loci involved in determining skin color. Because of that, there is the enormous number of possible genotypes for the skin color and as a result, the phenotypes vary from the darkest brown to the lightest hues. Different populations have different allele frequencies of genes for human skin color, and the combination of these allele variations brings about complex and continuous variation in skin coloration. Natural skin color can change due to exposure to sunlight (becomes darker) and that is the way it adapts to intense sunlight irradiation (protection against the UV exposure).

Study the structure of the plant growing on the rock in the image. Based on its structure, to which group does the plant belong?
dusya [7]

The plants can be classified based on their vascular and reproductive structures. The plant given in the image belongs to the Bryophyta.

<h3>What is Bryophyta?</h3>

The non-vascular plants that are a part of the plant classification are found in moist places and are small in size belongs to the Bryophyta.

The plant of this classification have a leafy multicelled plant body, that lacks true leaves, roots, and stems.  They are green plants and also contains chloroplast for food synthesis.

The vascular tissue like xylem and phloem are completely absent and hence the transportation does not occur through specialized systems.

Therefore, option A. Bryophyta is the plant growing on the rock.

A second action potential cannot be generated until ________.
Bingel [31]

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.
