The opening of channels that let positive ions flow out of the cell (or negative ions flow in) can cause hyperpolarization. Examples: Opening of channels that let
+
K
​+
​​ K, start superscript, plus, end superscript out of the cell or
−
Cl
​−
​​ C, l, start superscript, minus, end superscript into the cell.
The opening of channels that let positive ions flow into the cell can cause depolarization. Example: Opening of channels that let
+
Na
​+
​​ N, a, start superscript, plus, end superscript into the cell.
The opening and closing of these channels may depend on the binding of signaling molecules such as neurotransmitters (ligand-gated ion channels), or on the voltage across the membrane (voltage-gated ion channels).

Everyone in Squidward’s family has light blue skin, which is the dominant trait for body color in his hometown of Squid Valley.
Colt1911 [192]

All their children will have heterozygous genes because squidward is "purebred", or homozygous dominant. His wife has to be homozygous recessive for a recessive trait to show up. Every time you cross a homozygous dominant trait with a homozygous recessive trait, you will get heterozygous kids. This means all of them will have light blue skin.

Imagine that you've discovered a regulatory sequence thousands of base pairs away from the promoter and that when this sequence
Tresset [83]

Answer:

An Enhancer

Explanation:

Enhancers are the regulatory sequences and are generally located 80-160 base pairs upstream of the transcription start site. Enhancers have bidirectional elements that are involved in the initiation of transcription. Enhancers serve as the binding sites for activators to increase the concentration of activators in the vicinity of the promoter and thereby increase the rate of transcription of the gene.

According to the given information, the loss of a regulatory sequence led to a reduced level of transcription of the gene. This means that the regulatory sequence was involved in the upregulation of transcription. The presence of the sequence far away from the promoter makes it an enhancer.

If europhication continues what will eventually happen to the lake and the surrounding area
Sidana [21]
Then the submerged aquatic plants will note be able to receive light for photosynthesis. then those submerged aquatic plants will not have food/nutrients to survive, hence die. aquatic animals will not receive sufficient oxygen from those submerged aquatic plants, hence die also.
decomposes will breakdown all dead organisms to release carbon dioxide, and also deplete oxygen concentration during decomposition process.

eventually, habitat is rendered not livable. only the algae continue to proliferate uncontrollably at the water body surface.
