Sladkaya [172]3 years ago

The synapse is the junction present between two neurons.  

In a synapse, the electric impulses are transferred in the form of chemical molecule, which is also known as neurotransmitter. The synapse receives the signals from the sender neuron also known as presynaptic neuron to the receiver neuron, also called as postsynaptic neuron.

Hence, the correct answer is option c. junction between a sending neuron and a receiving neuron.

Answer;

C.junction between a sending neuron and a receiving neuron.

Explanation;

-Information or impulses from one neuron flows to another neuron across a synapse. The synapse contains a small gap separating neurons.The synapse consists of: a presynaptic ending that contains neurotransmitters, mitochondria and other cell organelles.

-The function of the synapse is to transfer electric activity (information) from one cell to another. The transfer can be from nerve to nerve (neuron-neuron), or nerve to muscle (neuro-myo).

List two additional populations (other than those listed in the lab) for which
omeli [17]

Indirect methods like mark and recapture become a strong tool to estimate population size or density in species on which it is impossible to apply a direct methods. <em>Because of their biological and ecological characteristics, the Gypsy moth and the Green lizard populations are good examples  for which  mark and recapture would work well.</em>

<em>------------------------------------------------------</em>

There are different methods to study population density. There are direct methods and indirect methods. Among these last ones, we might find the Mark-Recapture technique.

The Mark-Recapture technique assumes that

  • <em>the population is closed during the sampling season, there is no mortality nor natality, </em>
  • <em>marks in the individual last the whole sampling season, and they do not affect the marked individual or their behavior. </em>
  • <em>marked individuals are randomly distributed in the population, and </em>
  • <em>all the individuals have the same probability of being sampled.</em>

The method consists of capturing a sample of individuals belonging to the population under study. After capturing the individuals, the researcher marks and releases them again. The third step is to sample again: The researcher captures new individuals and counts how many of them are marked. These marked individuals belong to the first sample.

Indirect methods like this become a strong tool to estimate population size or density in species on which it is impossible to apply a direct method such as <em>counting individuals</em>.

For instance, if we need to estimate insects population density (<u><em>Gypsy moth population</em></u>) or reptiles population density (<u><em>Green lizard population</em></u>) because of their biological and ecological characteristics, the best way of doing it is by applying indirect methods. <em>These species characterize as small-sized, fast to escape, they can hide in small inaccessible places, they have nocturnal habits, their reproductive rate is too high, and their distribution rate is wide. </em>Among many other characteristics, their population density can not be estimated by direct methods. Mark-Recapture technique is the most suitable one.
