Answer:
D. Diffusion
Explanation:
The process of diffuse transports the substances in the direction of their concentration gradients. Diffusion of substance from the region of their higher to that of the lower concentration does not require any energy. Being a passive process, diffusion can be carried out by a cell irrespective of the status of its ATP supply. Therefore, an animal cell containing a small amount of cyanide can transport substances by diffusion.
Answer:
Generation of an action potential in the neuron.
Stimulation of Ca2+ entry into the neuron
Release of acetylcholine into the synapse
Depolarization of the muscle fiber membrane
Explanation:
The following events takes place in the vertebrate neuromuscular junction
a) Nerve Action Potential - Action potential reaches the axon terminal
b) Entry of calcium ion - The calcium ion reaches the axon terminal and enter into the presynaptic terminus after which the Synaptic vesicles fuse with the membrane of axon terminal
c) Releasing of Arch Quanta - Acetylcholine is released into synaptic cleft which then binds to the receptor sites on motor end plate
d) The Na+/K+ channels opens and Motor end plate becomes depolarized.
A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles. Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.
Phytoplankton serves as food for virtually all the organisms living in an aquatic environment. It is a primary food producer and serves as the foundation of aquatic food web. If there is a decline in the amount of phytoplankton, the organisms which feed directly on the plant may reduce significantly as a result of dire competition for food, this in turn will affect the organisms which feed on the dying out organisms and the trend will move in a similar way until it affect all the organisms living in that particular aquatic habitat.
