The answer is b. Positive; negative 
Elenna [48]3 years ago

The correct answer is option C, that is, from negative to positive.  

Action potentials are those electrical impulses, which transmit signals around the body and are nothing more than a temporary shift, that is, from negative to positive in the neuron's membrane potential resulting due to the flowing of ions in and out of the neuron suddenly.  

During the resting state, that is, prior to an action potential, all of the gated potassium and sodium channels are closed. They open once an action potential has been initiated. The sodium channel opens and more sodium ions move within the cell, making the charge more positive.

klasskru [66]

Answer: c. proteasome

Explanation:

Proteasomes are extremely important multi-catalytic proteases and are involved in various cellular functions. The proteasome is an essential component of eukaryotic cells and is responsible for the ATP-dependent proteolytic degradation of most cellular proteins. They are present in the nucleus and cytosol and can represent up to 1% of total cell proteins. Proteasomes generally degrade proteins to small peptides, most of which are rapidly hydrolyzed by cytoplasmic exopeptidases. It catalyzes the rapid degradation of many enzymes, regulatory proteins, and eliminates abnormal proteins resulting from mutation or damaged proteins. The inability of this cellular organelle can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson´s disease.

At age 10 you carved your name into the trunk of a 20 ft oak tree at about chest-height (for your 10-yr-old self). Thirty years
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: the tree is taller and place you carved your name is wider

Explanation: trees increases at their branch tip and so the carving on the base of the tree will still remain at the same spot you Left it. As the tree grows consistently, the base also expand the trunk because the trunk of the tree grows outwardly therefore the carving will expand since the truck of the tree increases in diameter.

In a nonreciprocal interchomosomal translocation, a segment of a chromosome is 1. transferred to a different chromosome without
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Transferred to a different chromosome without a reciprocal exchange of genetic material

Explanation:

Translocation is one of the structural abnormalities of chromosomes. During translocation, a segment from the chromosome breaks off and attaches to the non-homologous chromosome. Translocation can be reciprocal or nonreciprocal.

In reciprocal translocation, the exchange of chromosomal segments occurs between two non-homologous chromosomes. On the other hand, the nonreciprocal translocation, one chromosome loses its segment to a non-homologous chromosome but does not get the same from the recipient chromosome.
