Answer:
Blood Brain Barrier(BBB)
Explanation:
This is a biological interface of special endothelial cells of astrocytes, pericytes , capillaries, neurons and other structures, acting as a physical barrier or gate separating the Central Nervous system from the peripheral blood circulations. Thus it formed a tight junction serving as a physical barrier to selectively regulate the entrance of substances from the cerebral blood flow into the brain, therefore maintaining homeostasis of the brain.
From above any substances absorbed into the blood stream irrespective of the mode of entry are transported through the BBB, and are selectively regulated to enter the brain cells by the BBB's interactions with the blood vessels, hormones etc.
Basically it allows the passage of nutrients, a few drug, hormones and resists certain toxins and pathogens for the brain homeostasis.
Answer:
more glucose and change to a blacky-purple colour
Explanation:
Answer:
"Action potential is a rapid rise and subsequent fall in voltage or membrane potential across a cellular membrane with a characteristic pattern."
It is the mode through which a neuron transports electrical signals.
Explanation:
- Option - (a) is the best choice to choose from,
- <u>The refractory period :</u>
A second action potential cannot occur until the membrane has recovered or reestablished, this is the refractory period. The absolute refractory period coincides with inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels which makes it impossible to generate another nerve impulse.
