<span>Normal EMG should have a larger amplitude because inhibition of the motor unit would lead to less electric signals being generated.
Given that Brett ate a poisonous wild mushroom, his amplitude will be lower since his motor unit has been partially paralyzed. This means that electric signals cannot be properly generated in his body, thus the lower amplitude in the EMG.</span>

A bacterium was grown in two test tubes filled with media rich in glucose. One tube was sealed to produce anaerobic conditions,
amm1812

Answer:

The correct answer is: b. lightening of media in the unsealed tube only.

Explanation:

  • According to the question, the bacteria can undergo only aerobic respiration, that is it can produce its energy, that is, ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, only in the presence of oxygen.
  • The unsealed tube allowed air or oxygen to pass into it which can be used by the bacteria for its respiration. In the process, it will produce acid that will cause the media colour to lighten.
  • The sealed tube do not allow any oxygen to pass into it. As the given bacteria can undergo only aerobic respiration but not anaerobic respiration, in absence of oxygen it will not be able to undergo respiration and produce energy and acid. Hence, the media colour will remain unchanged.
  • The control tube is used to check the sterility of the media.

The population density of frogs in a portion of a pond is 12 frogs per square meter. The size of the entire pond is 370 square m
max2010maxim [7]

Given: The population density of frogs in a portion of a pond is 12 frogs per square meter. The size of the entire pond is 370 square meters.

To find: The total population size of the frogs in the pond.

Method: Using unitary method of proportions

Solution:

Let p be the density of the frogs present per square meter.

Let A denote the total area of the pond.

∴ p = 12 frogs/m² and A = 370 m²

The total number of frogs in the pond is given by,

p \times A = 12 \times 370 = 4440

Therefore, there are 4440 frogs in the pond.

The rate of firing of the postsynaptic neuron depends on the amount of ______ input it receives from the presynaptic neuron.
AysviL [449]

The postsynaptic potential is the membrane potential, which takes place in the neuron present post synapsis (after the chemical synapse). The presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitter, which causes the firing in the postsynaptic neurons.  

The firing of the post synaptic neuron depends on the excitation and inhibition inputs received from the presynaptic neuron. The firing is the resultant of the summation of excitatory and inhibitory potential. In case, the excitatory potential is greater than inhibitory potential, the post synaptic neuron would be excited. in case, inhibitory potential is greater than excitatory potential, then the post synaptic neuron would be inhibited.  


Hence, the correct answer is option d.
