Given question is incomplete. Complete question has been attached.

Answer:

C. Excessive potassium has diffused out causing hyperpolarization.

Explanation:

The nerve action potential can be divided into following stages:

  • Stimulus is detected by the cell in resting stage.
  • Sodium channels in the membrane open from where influx of sodium ions occur which is called depolarization
  • After a while, sodium channels close and potassium channels open from where efflux of potassium ions occur which is called repolarization.
  • The membrane potential further lowers due to continous efflux of potassium ions which is called hyperpolarization.
  • After a while potassium channels close and membrane returns to its resting stage.

In the given figure, stage 4 depicts hyperpolarization because the membrane potential has dropped to the lowest point below -70mV. Hence, option C is correct.

H2SO4 + NaOH → Na2SO4 + H2O
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Answer

4.0/5

4

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation will be;

H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O

The equation for the reaction is balanced by using coefficients; 1,2,1,2

According to the law of conservation of mass the mass of the reactants should be equal to the mass of the products.

For the law of conservation of mass to be obeyed, chemical equations must always be balanced.

Which of the following is a traditional human use of microorganisms? Select one: a. Baking bread b. Treating water and sewage c.
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Baking bread

Explanation:

Over time, microorganisms have been found beneficial in nature. most significantly in the fermentation process of bread baking.  the main micro organism in bread making traditionally is the yeast. Yeast is a microbe, when the yeast feeds on sugar it ferments it and it converts the sugar into carbon dioxide and ethanol. The function of the yeast in bread making is that it causes bread to rise.

Where the carbon dioxide in yeast come from?
Furkat [3]
Carbon dioxide from the yeast comes from a process called fermentation. Fermentation is a cellular respiration process in cells that happens when oxygen is not present. If oxygen is present, the process is called aerobic respiration.

5. What is the function of epithelium on the bottom of our foot?|
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Simple epithelium is a single layer of cells with every cell in direct contact with the basement membrane that separates it from the underlying connective tissue. In general, it is found where absorption and filtration occur. The thinness of the epithelial barrier facilitates these processes.
