Which scenario best exemplifies the way a signal is passed down an axon coated with myelin sheath?

1 answer:

8 0

Runners sprinting short distances in a relay race and handing off a baton scenario best exemplify the way a signal is passed down an axon coated with a myelin sheath.

Axons are long extensions of neurons (or nerve cells) involved in the transmission of nerve impulses away from the cell body. Each nerve cell has an axon that is over a foot long. A nerve cell communicates with another nerve cell by transmitting signals from the branches at the ends of the axon.

Each neuron in the brain has long cables that meander from the body of the cell. These cables, several times thinner than human hair, are called axons and are where electrical impulses leave neurons and are received by other neurons.

An aqueous solution contains the following ions Cl⁻, Ag⁺, Pb²⁺, NO₃⁻ & SO₄²⁻ and more than one precipitate will form are AgCl, PbCl₂, PbSO₄ & Ag₂SO₄.

<h3>What is precipitate?</h3>

Precipitate is the insoluble compound which is present at the bottom of any chemical reaction in the solid state.

If in an aqueous solution Cl⁻, Ag⁺, Pb²⁺, NO₃⁻ & SO₄²⁻ ions are present then:

Compounds AgCl, PbCl₂, PbSO₄ & Ag₂SO₄ are not soluble in water as it is present in the form of precipitate.
Pb(NO₃)₂ is fully soluble in water and will not make precipitate.

Hence precipitates are AgCl, PbCl₂, PbSO₄ & Ag₂SO₄.

Calculate the vapor pressure at 35ºC of a solution made by dissolving 20.2 g of sucrose (C12H22O11)in 60.5 g of water. The vapor

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

P' = 41.4 mmHg → Vapor pressure of solution

Explanation:

ΔP = P° . Xm

ΔP = Vapor pressure of pure solvent (P°) - Vapor pressure of solution (P')

Xm = Mole fraction for solute (Moles of solvent /Total moles)

Firstly we determine the mole fraction of solute.

Moles of solute → Mass . 1 mol / molar mass

20.2 g . 1 mol / 342 g = 0.0590 mol

Moles of solvent → Mass . 1mol / molar mass

60.5 g . 1 mol/ 18 g = 3.36 mol

Total moles = 3.36 mol + 0.0590 mol = 3.419 moles

Xm = 0.0590 mol / 3.419 moles → 0.0172

Let's replace the data in the formula

42.2 mmHg - P' = 42.2 mmHg . 0.0172

P' = - (42.2 mmHg . 0.0172 - 42.2 mmHg)

P' = 41.4 mmHg
