The phospholipid bilayer has two hydrophilic surfaces: the extracellular and the intracellular surfaces. These two layers sandwiches a major layer of lipids or fat. Because of this nature of the lipid bilayer, water-soluble or <em>hydrophilic</em>  hormones cannot enter the cell membrane. They have to rely on the mechanisms of receptors.

One can find transmembrane proteins embedded across the whole length of the lipid bilayer. One of the functions of these proteins is to serve as the link for hormones such as the ones given above. When the water-soluble hormones attach to one of these receptors, the receptor will be activated and send down a signal to the intracellular environment; these signals will then travel down towards their target site and eventually activate whatever it is the hormone was made for. One example of these transmembrane proteins are <em>G-coupled proteins; </em>examples of signals that cascade down the cell are cylic AMP and cyclic GMP.

Select TWO events that occur when a neurotransmitter binds and activates an excitatory synapse.
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Key points

Neurons communicate with one another at junctions called synapses. At a synapse, one neuron sends a message to a target neuron—another cell.

Most synapses are chemical; these synapses communicate using chemical messengers. Other synapses are electrical; in these synapses, ions flow directly between cells.

At a chemical synapse, an action potential triggers the presynaptic neuron to release neurotransmitters. These molecules bind to receptors on the postsynaptic cell and make it more or less likely to fire an action potential.

1. Which of the following is responsible for transmitting an impulse across a synapse to another cell?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
You didn't really provide any possible answers here. However, it's very easy to say that the responsible actors for impulse transmission across the synapses from one nervous cell to another nervous cell is what we call neurotransmitters. These are special molecules that can have different effects when binding onto the required receptor sites.

Maria is playing basketball. She sees the ball being thrown at her. She lunges forward to grab it. Arrange the events as they ha
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

1.The eyes, a sensory organ, see the ball.

2.Sensory nerves transmit the information to the brain.

3.The brain processes the information.

4.The brain sends signals to the motor nerves.

5.Motor nerves carry the signal to the hand muscles.

Explanation:

When we receive a stimulus by any of our 5 senses (sight, touch, smell, hearing or taste) our body will react to this. Once that the stimulus is received ( in this case seeing the ball) a signal is send through the sensory nerves to the brain. In the brain the information will be processed and an answer will be given through the motor nerves in order to  move the muscles and catch the ball. All this process is made in seconds.
