The correction option is B.
DNA is the genetic material in living organisms and it is the basis for inheritance. DNA molecule is made up of nitrogenous bases, deoxyribose sugars and phosphate groups. In order for the genetic information in the DNA molecules to be preserved, the components of the DNA must be arranged in the correct order without any any error. Thus, for the nitrogenous bases inside the DNA molecule, they must be correctly paired with  one another.

What type of stimulus is required for an action potential to be generated? What type of stimulus is required for an action poten
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

A threshold level depolarization.

Explanation:

In a neuron, the action potential threshold is known as the point of depolarization where the neuron fires, when the neuron reaches a point, it will fire and if it does not reach the point of depolarization, it will not fire and it helps to transmit the information to another neuron.

A neuron transmits the information with the help of electric impulses which are sent through its axon. When a neuron in an inactive phase, more +ve charged ions recline outside the axon membrane. In the process of stimulation, the axon membrane admits more Na+ ions and providing the neuron more +ve charge.
