<span>In the matter of technological innovations, I think it is possible to argue that without the compass and the square-rigger deep sea, Darwin would not be able to travel, thus preventing us from discovering we are, in fact, a product of evolution. Moreover, the airplane is right now the technology that permits anthropologists to travel a great distance in order to uncover the last mysteries around our evolution.</span>

The first is gene sequencing. This allows the sequence of nucleotides on DNA of different organisms to be identified. The sequence is then compared the bigger the difference in this sequence, the stranger the organisms are with regards to the evolutionary relationship.

<span>The second is carbon dating. This enables anthropologists to determine the age of fossils by calculating the time taken, in half-lives, by particular elements to decay, such as carbon-14 </span>

Cell X has a resting potential of -80mV. If a ___________ open and causes the potential to change 10mV, the resulting potential
Dovator [93]

K+ channel opens, resulting potential -90mV

This is due to hyperpolarization.

<h3>What is hyperpolarization?</h3>
  • Hyperpolarization is a change in a cell's membrane potential that makes it more negative (i.e. decreases).
  • It results in increase in the potential difference across the membrane.
  • K+ moves from the inside to outside as some potassium channels remain open and sodium channels reset. A period of increased potassium permeability results in excessive potassium efflux before the potassium channels close.
  • K+ channels typically cause membrane potential to become more negative.

Difference between diabetes mellitus and diuresis?? please help​
rodikova [14]

Explanation:

If you have been in EMS long enough, you may well have encountered a patient with diabetes insipidus. Like many, you may have assumed that it is a variant of the common disease diabetes mellitus. Actually, diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus are totally unrelated other than the name. The term diabetes is derived from Latin (originally Greek) and means “to go through or siphon,” referring to a large amount of urine produced by the kidneys. The term melitus, in Latin, means “sweet.”

What is velocity? <br>the one who answer will be marked brainliest ​
bixtya [17]

Velocity is the speed of an object moving in a definite direction. The velocity of an object can be uniform or variable. When an object moving along a straight line at variable speed, we can Express the magnitude of its rate of motion in terms of average velocity.

Average velocity=Initial velocity+Final velocity/2

The SI unit of velocity is m/s.
