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.

A corn plant known to be heterozygous at three loci is testcrossed. The progeny phenotypes and numbers are as follows:+ + + 455a

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The progeny phenotypes and numbers are as follows:

+ + + 455-------- parental

a b c 470-------- parental

+ b c 35----------- recombinant

a + + 33---------- recombinant

+ + c 37------------ recombinant

a b + 35--------------- recombinant

+ b + 460---------- parental

a + c 475----------- parental

Total 2,000

+ + + 455-------- parental

a b c 470-------- parental

+ b + 460---------- parental

a + c 475----------- parental

It is two point testcross

So the parental ++ (455+460); ac (470+475)------------------++/ac

Gene order is ------------- ++/ac

+ b c 35----------- recombinant

a + + 33---------- recombinant

+ + c 37------------ recombinant

a b + 35--------------- recombinant

sum of recombinants--------------140

Frequency of recombintion= recombinants/total x100

Map distances between a-c = (140/2000) x 100 = 7 mu

a------------------7 mu -----------------c

One watershed can encompass another watershed. Select one: True False

beks73 [17]

The right answer is True.

A watershed is the expanse of territory drained by the waters of rivers and lakes, which in turn converge to a common outlet. Groundwater is flowing into the watershed, although the boundaries may not exactly coincide with surface water. Smaller flow areas that feed subwatersheds can be called catchment basins or drains. Watersheds can flow into river basins that may encompass larger areas.

Known watersheds are separated from one another by ridge lines, also known as watersheds. These are designed to delineate the watershed.

Watersheds are nested networks, the smaller ones nesting in larger ones. Streams that form the watershed can be organized according to a ranking framework. For example, the upper streams at the highest elevation of the watershed are first class streams.

When two first-class rivers meet, they form a second-rate stream. When two second-rate rivers meet, they form a third-class watercourse. A stream joined by another lower ranking stream retains its rank. For example, a third-class watercourse joined by a first or second-rate watercourse remains a third-rate watercourse.
