ATP is short term storage due to the fact that it is produced rapidly and used up just as fast in cells. Fat is long term, usually when there is no energy, fat is burnt up (during exercise is the most common) and used for energy

ATP is not a storage for chemical energy; that is the job of carbohydrates, such as glycogen, and fats. Usually only the outer phosphate is removed from ATP to yield energy; when this occurs ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP), the form of the nucleotide having only two phosphates.

The action potential can move only in one direction because the recently depolarized area of the membrane is an absolute refract
Nataly [62]

Answer: Na+ channels are closed

Explanation:

The refractory period describes a period between the initiation of an action potential (where Na+ channels are active/open), and immediately after the action potential’s peak.  In the absolute refractory period, action potentials cannot be generated, as Na+ channels are in an inactive or closed state, they usually take around one or two minutes.  

After the absolute refractory period the relative refractory period (RRP) occurs. During the RRP, it is hard to send another action potential. Na+ channels are once again open, but the cell remains hyperpolarized-  its membrane potential, remains negative. Recovery from inactivation is voltage and time-dependent; Action potentials would require an influx of more positively charged ions. These must be more than a specific threshold in order to have the cells send along more action potentials which helps with figuring out stimulus intensity.

If a male genotype is Tt and the female genotype is TT, then what are the phenotypic ratios for tall and short corn?Phenotype :a
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. all tall

Explanation:

If the genotype of one parent for height is Tt and another parent is TT then after the fusion of gamete all the offspring will show tall phenotype because all the offspring will have at least one allele of tall character.  

                     T    t

               T   TT  Tt

               T   TT  Tt

So after cross two phenotype would be homozygous dominant for tall character and the other two will be heterozygous dominant for tall character. Therefore all the offspring would be tall.
