Human activity impacts the carbon cycle by introducing more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere: carbon dioxide accumulates in the atmosphere, changes temperatures and alters the salinity levels of oceans, disturbing the salt and water balance equilibrium that supports proper growth of marine plants and animals.
Answer:
Repolarization
Explanation:
Repolarization refers to the phase during which the resting potential is restored after depolarization. This means that the inside of the axon membrane becomes negative again compared to the outside.
Repolarization is obtained by the functioning of K+ ion channels. The opening of K+ ion channels allows the K+ to move outside of the axon. Movement of positively charged ion (K+) outside of axon makes the inside negative again and the resting potential is restored.
Answer:
Negative feedback mechanism
Explanation:
Negative feedback mechanism occurs when the product or the output of a process inhibits the same process. When blood glucose level rises, body receptors stimulate beta cells in pancreas to release insulin. Insulin leads to uptake of glucose by cells, lowering the blood sugar levels. The lowered blood sugar level is again sensed by the receptors and they inhibit the secretion of insulin. Hence, insulin inhibits its own secretion by removing glucose from blood which makes it a negative feedback mechanism.
