The answer is b. Positive; negative

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.

vivado [14]
The time period being referred to is the sensitive period. This time period is also referred to as the critical period. The importance of a critical period is such that it must involve certain stimuli from which an organisms learns and acquires traits. If some of these stimuli are not present in the critical period, the organism has difficulty acquiring the trait or skill, and may even find it to be impossible to learn the skill.

How do paleontologist learn about evolution ?
DanielleElmas [232]
Paleontologists can identify organisms that may be ancient relatives of those living today. By looking at fossils they can also suggest how these organisms lived together in an ancient habitat. Few organisms become fossilized because the circumstances that an organism has to be in is very specific.

Why is it important to know a person blood type before a blood transfusion?
lord [1]
Different types of blood contact different kinds of antigens and antibodies. For example, Type A blood has A antigens and B antibodies, antibodies being the thing that fights B antigens. Type B blood has B antigens and A antibodies. So if someone with type B gets transfused with Type A blood, the person's antibodies will attack the new blood.

If the DNA nucleotides read 3'-ATG-CGT-GAC-5', the amino acid sequence of the resulting polypeptide
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

5’ – TAC-GCA-CTG-3’

Explanation:

As per the Chargaff’s complementary base pairing rule purine always pairs with a pyrimidine.  

Purines include adenine (A) and cytosine (C)

Pyrimidine include thymine (T) and guanine (G)

Thus an A always pair with T and C always pair with G

Thus, the resulting poly peptide for the given amino acid sequence is  

3'-ATG-CGT-GAC-5'

5’ – TAC-GCA-CTG-3’
