When stimulated by the binding of specific chemicals, the membranes of taste bud receptors and olfactory neurons?

Taste bud receptors if not stimulated are normally polarized. With the presence of the food, chemicals from the food bind with the cell protein which depolarized the cell membrane receptor. Depolarization will lead into the propagation of electric impulse. This will lead into the creation of sensory impulse. The larger number of the chemicals in the food will lead into a stronger impulse.

The answer is depolarization. Depolarization is the influx of cations, especially sodium ions, from the extracellular fluid into the neuron cell hence generation an electrical impulse along a neuron. The resting potential of neurons is -70mV. When depolarized, the electronegativity in the inside of the neuron cell reduces.

What might happen if cytokinesis were omitted

Georgia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cytokinesis is the process by which the cytoplasm splits, forming two daughter cells from one parental cell. It occurs towards the end of mitosis, after the DNA has been replicated. The process of mitosis generates a cell with two nuclei, and cytokinesis ensures that each daughter cell receives one nucleus.

Without the process of cytokinesis, the physical process of the production of two cells from one parental cell would not occur, so the cell would not divide into two daughter cells.
