Hey:)

Bottled water is definitely not a long-term plan.

Reducing the water consumption does not really solve the problem.

Store the rain water is a nice choice, but you cannot drink the rain water directly, it needs to be filtered.

Since the contamination is only caused by N and P, it should be easy to filter out, but still, it depends on the type of the compound of N and P.

I would choose the last option.

What is the function of the structure identified by the red arrow?
Ket [755]

The structure shown by the red arrow is cell membrane.  

In biology, cell membrane refers to the thin layer, which develops the external boundary of a living cell. It has three primary functions, which are as follows:  

1. It comprises channels and receptors, which permits particular molecules like nutrients, ions, metabolic components, and wastes to pass between the cell and the outside environment.  

2. It prevents toxic components from entering the cell.  

3. They distinguish essential but incompatible metabolic procedures conducted within the cell.

Why would it be important for epidemiologists, scientists who study the spread of disease, to determine patient zero?
amm1812
It's important so that they know exactly where the disease started. Knowing who patient zero is helps them to identify who that person interacted with. From there, they can determine where the disease spread to. This will aid them in stopping the disease before it spreads any further.

Which of the following characteristics are true for an action potential?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

I, II, III

Explanation:

A threshold stimulus is a stimulus that is capable to produce a response in excitable tissues such as neurons and muscle fibers. At threshold potential, the outward movement of K+ and inward movement of Na+ become equal to each other. When the potential exceeds the threshold potential, more and more Na+ enter the cell to depolarize it and to allow the opening of Na+ channels. Therefore, to fire an action potential, the threshold must be exceeded.

Conduction of action potential is all or none phenomenon which means that either it occurs or it does not occur. As an impulse is passed by each successive part of an exon, it enters the refractory period during which there is no conduction of nerve impulse. It ensures the one-way conduction of impulse from the cell body to the axon terminal only.
