Some people have low levels of calcium circulating in the blood, a condition known as hypocalcemia. While for many this disorder

has little to no effect, for some it can be life-threatening. How could low levels of calcium harm an individual?
Low levels of calcium would not have any effect on synaptic transmission.
Low levels of calcium would cause sustained depolarization of the presynaptic cell.
Low levels of calcium would result in fewer signals sent between the pre- and postsynaptic cell.

Answer:

Hypocalcemia is defined as low level of calcium in the serum.

It could be harmful to an individual in the following ways:

Convulsions, arrhythmias, tetany, and numbness in the hands and feet and around the mouth occur due to lowered threshold for depolarization causing increased responsiveness.

Life-threatening complications- Laryngospasm and Cardiac arrhythmias can arise.

Effects on cardiac output include:

(A) Negative chronotropic effect, or a decrease in heart rate.

(B) Negative inotropic effect, or a decrease in contractility

Illusion [34]

A body of underground water, usually comprised of water saturated regolith, is permeable, and replenishes lakes and streams, is known as a aquifer.

Groundwater to be able to get into a rock with good porosity it must also have good permeability. For a rock to be permeable and for water to move through it, the pore spaces between the grains in the rock must be connected. Permeability is therefore a measure of the ability of water to move through a rock.

An aquifer is a body of rock and/or sediment that holds groundwater. Groundwater is the word used to describe precipitation that has infiltrated the soil beyond the surface and collected in empty spaces underground. There are two general types of aquifers confined and unconfined.

What are the 2 ways that you can do to enhance the<br> resolvingpower on the microscope?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The resolving power of the microscope is dependent upon the objective lens. It can be measured by the ability of the lens to differentiate between the two lines or points on the specimen under observation. The more the resolving power the smaller will be the distance between the two lines or points that can be distinguished.

The following are the two ways that can be used to enhance the resolving power on the microscope:

Using a lens that has a higher aperture.

Decreasing the amount of light being entered into the microscope that means using light of less wavelength.
