The most plausible hypothesis to explain why species richness is higher in tropical than in temperate regions is that

Biology
1 answer:
qwelly [4]3 years ago
7 0
The most plausible hypothesis is: Tropical regions generally have more available water and higher levels of solar radiation. They also have very high rates of immigration and very low rates of extinction.

explanation:
Water is essential for an abundance of life, and sunlight is the means by which the whole food chain receives energy. Plants convert the sunlight into food, herbivores eat them, and other animals eat herbivores.

Hope this helps, and muchas luck on your biology.

Action potential in a motor neuron triggers the release of what neurotransmitter?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Action potential in a motor neuron triggers the release of acetylcholine (ACh) neurotransmitter.

Explanation:

Acetylcholine: It is a neurotransmitter released by motor neurons which bind to the receptors end plates of the motor. When an action potential travel down the motor neuron's axon, neurotransmitter release occurs resulting in an influx of calcium and altered permeability of the synaptic terminal membrane.

The Ca2+ ions allow synaptic vesicles to move and bind with the presynaptic membrane which is present on the neuron and released neurotransmitter from the vesicles into the synaptic cleft. Once it's released ACh diffusion occurs across the synaptic cleft to the motor end plate, and binds with ACh receptor. As the neurotransmitter ACh binds, these ions channel open and sodium ions cross the membrane into the muscle cells.

In this phase reduction of voltage inside and outside the cell occurs, which is known as depolarization. When ACh binds to the motor end plate this depolarization is known as end plate potential. Then depolarization spread with the sarcolemma and creating an action potential. This action potential moves the entire cell and creating a wave of depolarization.

When a rat's ventromedial nucleus is destroyed, the rat will:
ExtremeBDS [4]

The correct answer is C. It continues to eat the amount of food it does normally.


When rat's ventromedial nucleus is destroyed the rat will become more hyper physics and it continues to eat until it has doubled its normal weight.

Ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus is termed as nucleus of hypothalamus.

It is a distinct morphological nucleus which involved in terminating hunger, fear, sexual activity and thermoregulation.

Ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus is divided into subdivisions. For example, dorsomedial, ventrolateral, central and anterior. VMN is most commonly associated with satiety. In rats ventromedial nucleus is caused by over-eating and obesity.
