Fudgin [204]1 year ago

An excitatory post synaptic potential has a reversal potential more positive than the action potential threshold, whereas an inhibitory post synaptic potential has a reversal potential more negative than threshold.

Excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP) carry the neuron's potential closer to its volatile threshold. on the other hand Inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSP) change the charge across the membrane to be further from the volatile threshold.

These potentials are also known as graded potential because their size or amplitude is directly proportional to the strength of the triggering event. Example include when large stimulus leads to the generation of a strong graded response and a small stimulus leads to the generation of a weak graded response.

Answer:Airedale Terrier is a Dog specie,the Airedale Terrier is the largest of all terrier breeds.

(1) Respiration

(2) Nutrition

(3) Reproduction

(4) Movement

(5) Irritability

Explanation: A living specie is a specie that poses all the characteristics of a living organisms such MOVEMENT, REPRODUCTION, NUTRITION, IRRITABILITY,GROWTH, EXCRETION, REPRODUCTION AND DEATH.

Respiration is the process through which living organisms take in oxygen in order to break down food for the release of energy and carbon dioxide.

Nutrition is the process of feeding or intake of nutrients Airedale Terrier feeds on both plants and animals ( OMNIVORES).

Reproduction is the process through which the younger generation are brought to life Airedale Terrier reproduce through Sexual reproduction.

Movement is the change of location,Airedale Terrier moves from one point to another.

Airedale Terrier responds to different stimuli ranging from sound,light,touch, taste etc.
