Answer:
Axons with high diameter, and myelinated will conduct action potential faster.
Axons with low diameter but myelinated will be relatively slow in the speed of action potential transmission
Axons with high diameter and unmyelinated will be relatively slow in action potential transmission.
Axons with low diameter, and unmyelinated will conduct action potential slowly .
Explanation:
Diameter of Axon affects conduction speed of Action Potential; the thick axons with high diameter conducts action potential at a faster speed than thin neurons. This is because of the less resistance to the transmission of action potential along the thick axon. However, thin neurons with lower diameter has more resistance to the action potential conduct along the axon, thus the speed of transmission is slow.
Myelinated neuron transmits action potential faster because of jumping of action potential at the nodes of Ranvier where there is highest concentration of all channel proteins and pump proteins, Therefore action potential is conducted at a faster rate as it jumps from one node to another. This is salutatory conduction. It increases the conduct about 50 times compare to unmyelinated neuron. In neuron of human it increases the speed to 100ms-1
.Conversely, unmyelinated neurone conducts action potential slowly. About 0.5ms-1 . This is because no salutatory conduction takes place because there is no myelin interruption as Nodes of Ranvier
Cells at Work (Hataraku Saibou)
Answer:
5.6L
Explanation:
Given parameters:
number of moles = 0.25mol
pressure on gas = 1atm
temperature = 273K
Gas constant R = 0.0821Latm/molK
Unknown:
Volume of gas = ?
Solution:
Using the ideal gas equation, we can solve this problem. The equation is a combination of the three gas laws: Boyle's law, Charles's law and Avogadro's law.
It is mathematically expressed as;
PV = nRT
where P is the pressure
V is the volume
R is the gas constant
T is the temperature
n is the number of moles
All the parameters are in the appropriate units and we simply solve for the volume of the gas;
1 x V = 0.25 x 0.0821 x 273
V = 5.6L
Answer:
protection
Explanation:
The cell wall is the protective, semi-permeable outer layer of a plant cell. A major function of the cell wall is to give the cell strength and structure, and to filter molecules that pass in and out of the cell.
Answer:
Option (3).
Explanation:
Teratogens may be defined as the chemicals that can cause birth defects in the fetus. Substances like alcohol, lead and nicotine acts as the main agents of tertaogens.
Shamona is drinking water that contains high level of lead. The element lead is harmful for the fetus. Even the small concentration of lead is enough to cause birth defects. The lead exposure can cause the abnormal development of brain and damages the brain of fetus. The fetus has low birth weight also.
Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
