What is the difference between an inhibitory and an excitatory post synaptic potential?.

Biology

Fudgin [204]1 year ago
8 0

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.

Advocard [28]

The adaptive advantage of a fungus producing and secreting a bacterial inhibitor would be that it protects against microbial competitors: is an extensive surface area well suited for invasive growth and absorptive nutrition.

Fungus

A fungus is any eukaryotic organism that includes microbes like yeasts and moulds, as well as the more recognisable mushrooms. These organisms are classed as a kingdom distinct from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista in one traditional taxonomy.

The presence of chitin in fungi's cell walls distinguishes them from plants, bacteria, and some protists. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they obtain nourishment by absorbing dissolved molecules, usually by secreting digestive enzymes into their surroundings.

Fungi, like plants, use chemical defence, which involves the creation of poisons that affect the growth, development, or viability of the antagonists.

Kay [80]

Answer: The correct option is B.

To increase the visual contrast in the specimen

Explanation:

Compound microscope is a microscope that consist of large lenses to enlarge images. Scientist normally stain specimen before they observed it under compound microscope because it will visualise the specimen and make some component of it to be visualise well. Some metabolic processes can also be differentiated and observed well.
