In an Immune disorder, our own defensive cells, get affected. In that situation, they harm us instead of protect us from any other foreign substance (pathogen), that's why it is so dangerous.

Hope this helps!

Most of the compounds that make up life contain the element:

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Carbon.

Explanation:

Carbon forms the basis for all life on Earth; indeed, life forms on Earth are referred to as carbon-based life forms, emphasizing the importance of this element for life. Carbon atoms readily bond to other atomic elements, such as oxygen and nitrogen.

"by measuring the relative abundances of two stable isotopes of oxygen - 16o and 18o - in some fossil deposit, or in an ice core

maks197457 [2]

Stable isotopes refers to those isotopes that do not undergo radioactive decay. Oxygen atoms with atomic number of 16 and 18 are examples of stable isotopes. These isotopes of oxygen are usually found in substances such as polar ice and calcite. These substances are usaually measure with isotope fractionation and the ratios obtained are used to estimate water temperature of ancient oceans. From this, scientists can find out facts about ancient climates,

Correctly identify each of these definitions or examples as either depolarization or hyperpolarization of the plasma membrane. 1

natulia [17]

Answer:

hyperpolarization
depolarization
hyperpolarization
depolarization
hyperpolarization
depolarization
depolarization

Explanation:

The resting membrane potential is balanced by ion leakage and ion pumping, to get an electrical signal started the membrane potential has to lose its balance. This starts with a membrane channel opening for Na+ since Na+ concentration is higher outside the cell, ions will rush into the cell. This will change the relative voltage inside the cell. The resting potential has a voltage of -70 mV, the sodium cation entering the cell cause it to become less negative. This is known as depolarization.

The concentration gradient for Na+ will continue to enter the cell making the voltage to become positive reaching +30 mV. At the same time, this happens, other voltage-gated channels are also opening, a concentration gradient acts on K+, as well, as it leaves the cell, it takes a positive charge with it making the membrane potential to move back to its resting voltage of -70 mV. This is called repolarization.

For potassium ions to reach equilibrium the membrane voltage needs to be below -70 mV, this leads to a period of hyperpolarization that occurs while the K+ channels are open.

I annexed an image that illustrates this action potential process.

Considering the information given during depolarization there's an increase in the number of sodium leak channels (7) making the inside of the cell more positive (2) increase in the membrane potential (4), this also implies a decrease in the extracellular concentration of potassium (6)

Meanwhile, during hyperpolarization an increase in the extracellular concentration of potassium (3) decreases the membrane potential (1) making the inside of the cell more negative (5).

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
