Answer:

In organisms during cell division, DNA is present in packaged structure called "chromosomes" with a constriction point called the centromere giving X-shape to the chromosomes. This forms a complete set of chromosome.The number of chromosomes present in the nucleus of the cell is known as ploidy number represented by "n".

Based on the number of chromosomes, cell is usually divided into: Haploid cell and diploid cell.

Haploid cells (n): are the cells with only one complete set or chromosomes like gamete cells while

Diploid cells (2n): are the cells with 2 sets or pair of chromosomes like somatic cells.

Enkephalins and endorphins are peptides that act like morphine. True or False
mariarad [96]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Enkephalins and endorphins are endogenous peptides while morphine is an exogenous peptide.

Enkephalins and endorphins are powerful analgesics 18 to 500 times more than morphine. Hence, morphine is less analgesic than enkephalins and endorphins.

Enkephalins and endorphins act on the  mu, kappa , delta receptors and morphine also acts on the same receptors. All of them has same effects on the body.

Hence, Enkephalins and endorphins are peptides that act like morphine.

Voltage across the cell membrane is determined by the concentration of which 2 types of charged particles?
lisabon 2012 [21]

The answer is; Sodium (Na+) and Potassium (K+) Ions


These cations are pumped out of the cell by Na+-K+ transmembrane protein pumps leaving the inside of the cell electronegative in relation to the extracellular matrix. This membrane potential is significant especially for neurons. Depolarization of the membrane enables transmissions of an impulse along the neurons.
