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

Biology
1 answer:
fiasKO [112]2 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 organelles would create a basic protein that could be modified to move chromatids during metaphase?
bija089 [108]

The organelles would create a basic protein that could be modified to move chromatids during metaphase is the histine protien which is secreted from the RNA's.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Histone protein is the protein that is associated with the chromosome. The chromatin fibres get condensed into chromosomes on these proteins.  

The chromatin fibre i.e. the DNA fibre gets to wrap itself around the histone octamer which is formed of two units of each of Histone H2A H2B H3 and H4. Then the H1 protein seals the turn and thus a chromosome is formed. These histone are produced in the S-phase of the cell cycle. This protein is transcribed into m-RNA's and then translated into protein.
