Answer:

b) opening calcium pores in the membrane

Explanation:

The opening of calcium  ions channels facilitates the migration of vesicles containing neurotransmitters in the pre-synaptic neurons  to the tip of the post-synaptic membrane. at the <u>neuromuscular  junction </u>These neurotransmitters can either be <u>cholinergic or non-chorlinergic.</u>   <u>At the tip  of the pre-synaptic membranes the vesicles empty their neurotransmitter contents into the synapse.</u>

The neurotransmitters,  diffuse through the neuromuscular junction to bind  with the receptors on the <u>post-synaptic membrane on the post-synaptic neuron.</u> This  stimulates opening of<u> ligand gated sodium ions,</u> and sodium ions  diffuse into the post-synaptic neuronal membrane, to cause <u>depolarization</u>. if the stimulus is  up to the threshold levels   it  generate action potential.

Therefore , more calcium ions channels opening produces; more diffusion of neurotransmitters;leading to opening of more sodium channels for depolarization; and IPSP or EPSP  generation.

Briefly explain how DNA profiling is used to identify individuals.
Ne4ueva [31]
A sample of DNA is taken from blood of saliva. PCR makes lots of copies, or amplifies the DNA. We then add restriction enzymes to cut the DNA at palindrome sequences. We then run the DNA through gel Elecrophoresis. Each person has unique short tandem repeats that cause a unique number of cuts by the restriction enzyme. These cuts are separated by size on gel electrophoresis, so no two people have the exact same pattern. We can compare individuals banding patterns to what is found at a crime scene, taken in previous samples, in a baby, and the sample that matches all the banding patterns will be the individual.
