Answer:

The correct answers to the question are

The following statements about neurons are NOT true

A. The resting membrane potential is generally in the range of -40 mv to -75 mv.

C. Neurons repolarize by opening chloride channels on the membrane.

D. An action potential can occur when the neuron's sodium gates open.

Explanation:

A. The resting membrane potential is generally in the range of -40 mv to -75 mv.

Not true the resting potential for neurons range from -70 to -80 mv

B. Maintaining resting membrane potential requires the use of energy from ATP True

The potential of the membrane arises from the splitting of potassium ions from the intracellular anions by agents powered by ATP

C. Neurons repolarize by opening chloride channels on the membrane

Not True

Repolarization occurs by the outward transit of the positively charged K⁺ from the cell

D. An action potential can occur when the neuron's sodium gates open.

Not True

An action potential takes place once the neuron transmits information along an axon. An action potential results when different ions pass through the membrane of the neuron

Given that a lever has a mechanical advantage of 6.0 and is 100% efficient, if the resistance is to be lifted 2.0 inches, then h
Shalnov [3]
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the force produced by the machine to the force applied to it. Therefore, we may calculate the applied force using:
Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied
6 = 2 / force applied
Force applied = 1/3

Thus, the distance that the effort must move will be 1/3 inch

In a power plant, pipes transporting superheated vapor are very common. Superheated vapor flows at a rate of 0.3 kg/s inside a p
grigory [225]

Answer:h=160.84 W/m^2-K

Explanation:

Given

mass flow rate=0.3 kg/s

diameter of pipe=5 cm

length of pipe=10 m

Inside temperature=22

Pipe surface =100

Temperature drop=30

specific heat of vapor(c)=2190 J/kg.k

heat supplied Q=mc\Delta T=0.3\times 2190\times (30)

Heat due to convection =hA(100-30)

A=\pi d\cdot L

A=\pi 0.05\times 10=1.571 m^2

Q_{convection}=h\times 1.571\times (100-22)=122.538 h

Q=Q_{convection}

19,710=122.538 h

h=160.84 W/m^2-K

What is Metabolism?
attashe74 [19]
"<span>The process by which your body converts food into energy", sounds more accurate.

"</span><span>The amount of potential energy contained in food", is basically a long way of saying - Calories.

So, I would go with the one that talks about the process of converting food to energy.</span>
