Polycythemia is defined an abnormal increase in the number of circulating red blood cells. It is mainly caused by a cancerous condition known as myeloproliferative disorder or due to a low supply of oxygen to body tissues usually due to living in high altitude areas and the body tries to compensate by producing more red blood cells to increase oxygen carrying capacity of the blood Normal blood count values in a male adult is 4.7 to 6.1 million cells/mcL, while in a female adult it is 4.2 to 5.4 million cell/mcL. If this blood cell count is significantly higher then these values, and remains there or continues to rise, over a given period of time, accompanied with some specific symptoms, then polycythemia is suspected.

Assuming one nerve impulse must end before another can begin, what is the maximum firing rate of a nerve in impulses per second?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 10³ seconds.

Explanation:

The nerve impulse is an electrical signal in which fluctuation in membrane potential occurs and forms an electrical signal that takes place that travels along the axon to the synapses.

Suppose a nerve impulse starts only when the first impulse ends according to the question so the one impulse last for the 10⁻³ second or 1 ms.  

Thus,  the nerve impulse fires per second will be equal to impulse generate in each second which is 1/10⁻³ = 10³.

Thus, the correct answer is - 10³ impulse per second or 1000 impulse per second.
