Answer:
a. insulation
Explanation:
The myelin sheath provides increased cell isolation (increased membrane resistance) because there are no membrane leakage channels in which there is myelin.
In addition to no membrane leakage channels, there is also virtually no type of membrane channel when there is myelin sheath (eg sodium and potassium pumps), which causes the cell a lower need for protein synthesis, or that is, less energy expenditure.
<span>ASEAN is an Association of Southeast Asian Nations - a multination association that has as its aim an economic cooperation between Southeast Asian countries (such as Thailand). This association did not arise as a response to external factors, so any reason connected to externam factors would not apply - such as the reliance on some external powers (such as the US). It is focused on the cooperation between the members only - not an external association.</span>
The correct answer is A....
Aquaporins would be expected to increase in numbers when there is an insufficient amount of water present in the blood.
Aquaporins are a type of proteins which are present in the integral membrane of the cells. They act as channels and help in the transport of water and small solutes across the membrane.
Whenever there is insufficient amount of water present in the blood, the antidiuretic hormone or the ADH responds. The aquaporins increase in number in the blood. They allow the transcellular reabsorption of water. Due to this fact, more water is able to escape from the collecting tubules and enter the blood.
