How Neurons Work (1 of 3): Neuron Structure and Resting Potential (BioFlix tutorial)?

Biology
1 answer:
fiasKO [112]3 years ago
6 0

 A neuron is nerve cells that transfer information within the body, chemically over short distances, using electrical signals over long ones.

   As it turns out, most resting neurons are permeable to Na+ and CL- as well as K+. K+ will try to drag the membrane potential toward its (positive) equilibrium potential, while NA+ try to drag the membrane potential to its negative equilibrium potential.

The real membrane potential will be between NA+ and K+ of equilibrium potential<span>. However, it will be closer to the equilibrium potential of the ion type with higher permeability.</span>

Which of the following statements is consistent with the principle of competitive exclusion?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

D) Even a slight reproductive advantage will eventually lead to the elimination of the less well adapted of two competing species.

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion describes relationship between two species that compete for the limiting sources, and cannot coexist. It is enough for one species to have slightly advantage to be dominant over the other. As a consequence, other species (the weaker one) will be extincted (shift to a different ecological niche).

The bulk of carbon dioxide is carried chemically combined with the amino acids of hemoglobin as carbaminohemoglobin in the rbcs.
natali 33 [55]
<span>The answer would be: as the bicarbonate ion in the plasma after first entering the red blood cells

Carbon dioxide will be changed into bicarbonate ion that released into the plasma. That is why the level of carbon dioxide will influence the pH of the blood. The process will produce hydrogen ion so higher carbon dioxide will result in acidosis. It is important to keep the carbon dioxide level at a certain point to prevent blood pH stable</span>
