Answer: In case of a river that is flowing over a fault in a perpendicular manner, if earthquake triggers, then it will be affecting the block in such a way that one block will move up whereas the other block will move down.

Due to this shifting of the block, the river channel will also experience an abrupt change in its gradient. The steepness of the river at that point will increase or the river level may also get shrink to a certain extent.

When neurons "fire," the first thing that happens is that sodium ions enter the cell. this does not require an input of energy.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer;

One can infer that membrane transport proteins are required in order for neurons to fire.

Explanation;

Transport proteins are proteins that transport substances across biological membranes. Transport proteins are found within the membrane itself, where they form a channel, or a carrying mechanism, to allow their substrate to pass from one side to the other.

-Transport proteins transport materials such as; ions such as sodium and potassium; sugars such as glucose; proteins and messenger molecules; and many more. In neurons, they play a fundamental role in the functioning of nerve cells. These transporters, a third class of membrane transport proteins, move a wide variety of ions and molecules across cell membranes.
