The ion which is entering axon terminal A is called Ca²⁺.
The effect which it has is, it causes the release of neurotransmitter from the axon terminal.

Axon terminal is termed as distal termination of telodendria of an axon. Another name for the axon terminal is synaptic boutons. Axon is a long, slender projection which is of a nerve cell. 
Their work is to conduct electrical impulses which are referred to as action potential which is a way of neurons of the cell body. Neurons use electrochemical signals and also a neurotransmitter chemical which transmits impulses from one neuron to another.
Axon terminals are being separated from neighboring neurons by a gap known as a synapse. Both the axon terminal and neuron they come from a point which is called the presynaptic neuron.

Let me try to explain this. The ion entering this axon terminal at A is the sodium ion better known as Na+. This ion causes an effect called repolarization of the axon terminals which is an electrical activity which cause muscular activity

Put the last 6 (Creep to Avalanche) in order from Fastest to Slowest.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

creep, solifluction, slump, earthflow, mudflow, debris avalanche, rockfall

Explanation:

Mass movement also known mass wasting is the motion of rock,  regolith (loose mixture of soil and rock particles that covers the earth's surface), snow, and ice down a slope. Based on increasing speed of movement, the given mass movement processes are as follows:

Creep- this a very slow, usually continuous movement of regolith down slope.

Solifluction - this is a sediment flow. A sediment flow is a mixture of rock, regolith with some water. The rate solifluction is measured in centimeters per year. It occurs at a faster rate than than creep.

Slumps - is a type of mass movement whereby there is a downward rotation of rock or regolith along a curved surface producing depressions or scars on the slope. It occurs at a faster rate than solifluction.

Earthflows - they usually occur with heavy rains and occur at a much faster rate with velocities between several centimeters per year and hundreds of meters per day.

Mudflows- are a highly fluid mixture of sediment and water which usually result from heavy rains in areas where there is an abundance of loose sediment. These sediments are picked up by flowing streams of water. Mudflows occur at high velocities and can travel long distances.

Debris Avalanches - These are very high velocity mass movements that result from the complete collapse of a mountainous slope. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions usually cause debris avalanches. Avalanches involving snow only is known as snow avalanches.

Rock Falls - Rock falls occur when a piece of rock which may be large or small on a steep slope comes loose and falls down the slope. On its way down it may dislodge other rocks which also fall down the slope. Rock falls are the fastest of the six types of mass movements stated.

All of the following are important properties of prokaryotes except
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: C) Prokaryotes convert nitrogen-containing molecules into forms that can't be used by other organisms.

Prokaryotes are the organisms that do not have a membrane bound nucleus, mitochondria and other organelle. They ranges in size of diameter from 0.1–5.0 µm.

Example:<em> Escherichia coli, Sulfolobus acidocaldarius archeobacterium </em>

Decomposers, play an important role in nitrogen cycle. Nitrogen gas is converted to nitrate compound by nitrogen fixing bacteria which are present in root nodules of leguminous plants.

Example: <em>Azotobacter </em>
