Answer: This is similar to how the ABSOLUTE REFRACTORY PERIOD works in Neural communication.

Explanation: The REFRACTORY period refers to the the period, after excitation, during which a membrane recovers its polarization and is not able to respond to a second stimulus.

In this period, it is impossible to react to stimuli.

A perfect example can be observed in the physiology of a man when having sex and have reached orgasm. The period that which the individual recovers from the orgasm to continue sex is referred to as the absolute refractory period.

Answer:

Absolute refractory period

Explanation:

The absolute refractory period is the period that is started from the initiation period of action potential to the immediately after peak point. This is called the Absolute Refractory Period. This is the time between neuron action potential and not lead the second action potential. The absolute refractory period takes around 1 to 2 minutes.  

Thus here Gunther is becoming frustrated with television in the hotel room. He has been scanned through channels. This is the example of an absolute refractory period.

Do students experience more sleep deprivation than others (non students)?
lesya692 [45]
Yes, students do experience more sleep deprivation than other non students because most students stay up late at night studying for pop quiz's, exams, etc. They're probably staying up doing homework, projects, make-up work, etc. They might also be stressed out which will cause most of them to be awake at night thinking about what they are stressed out about. While other non students don't have to really worry as much as these things because they aren't in school anymore.

You have likely experienced a static ‘shock’ after walking across a carpet, just as John Travoltage did in the simulator. Which
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: static electricity builds up because of imbalance of charges between objects and its greater during cold winter because Since water allows electrons to travel freely, it’s less likely for static charges to build up in an environment where water is present. This is why static electricity is rarely an issue in the summertime — humid summer air holds more water than dry winter air.
