A neuron (also known as nerve cell) is an electrically excitable cell that takes up, processes and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals. It is one of the basic elements of the nervous system. In order that a human being can react to his environment, neurons transport stimuli.
Answer: depolarization; hyperpolarization
Explanation:
At resting potential (absence of stimulus), the cell membrane of a neuron is said to be polarized with a net negative charge within due to more potassium (K+) ions present than sodium (Na+) ions.
However, an impressed stimuli reverses the ions content as K+ ions flows out and quickly replaced by Na+ ions, resulting in a decrease in membrane potential and a more positive cell membrane. Thus, depolarization occurs.
An increase in the membrane potential (so that it becomes more negative) is called hyperpolarization.
The type of muscle that is responsible for maintain posture is VOLUNTARY. The correct option is B. Skeletal muscles are the ones who control posture and movement and they are voluntary in nature, that is, they are under the conscious control of man. The muscles that are responsible for maintain posture are: spinal, pelvic and abdominal muscles, hip muscles, lower leg muscles and shoulder and neck muscles.
Answer:
It would make it possible to compare that species to other species at a level deeper than outward appearance
Explanation:
The proteins like hemoglobin and enzymes can be studied to see whether organism which are similar in form can also be related to each other. Its differences found in these proteins' amino acid sequences will present how closely or distantly related an organism is to another.
