1. What causes the autorhythmicity or action potentials of the nodal cells? a. A decrease in chloride permeability b. A gradual
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

The rhythm of the heartbeat is controlled by the pacemaker of the heart called the sino-atrial node.

The SA node generates action potentials which trigger the contraction and relaxation of the atrium and ventricles. The membrane potential generation initiates by the depolarization of the cell membrane when the L type of Ca⁺² ions opens up and calcium ions enter the cell.

This depolarizes the cell until the potential threshold is reached which lies between the -40 and -30 mV.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Given:

allele A = yellow

allele R = black,

Heteroozygous = gray

Genotypes of the parents:

yellow (Aarr) - female

gray (AaRr) - gray

cross between these

Parents: Yellow (Aarr)  and Grey (AaRr)

Gametes: (Ar, ar) and (AR, Ar, aR, ar)

F1 (Punnet square)

----|----- AR ------|------- Ar ------|------ aR -----|----- ar

Ar | AARr (gray) | AArr (yellow) | AaRr (gray) | Aarr (yellow)

ar | AaRr (gray) | Aarr (yellow) | aaRr (black) | aarr (cream)

Ratio: 3/8 yellow : 3/8 gray : 1/8 cream : 1/8 black

Which of the following is an example of using relaxation techniques? a. flight-or-flight response b. visualization c. rational r
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Flight-or-flight response is a response or physiological reaction towards external stimuli. Systematic desensitization is a methodology to control anxiety during speech. Hence, these two are not relaxation techniques.  Transforming novelty into familiarity is also a methodology to remain prepared during a speech by practicing it well. Visualization is a technique that helps our mind to relax by using imagination to reach a relaxed state of mind.

Hence, option B is correct

Winding mills are made on hills. Why?​
Leni [432]

Answer:

Winding mills are made on hills because of air flow and currents.

Explanation:

Winding mills capture wind to turn blades and produce energy. In order to do so, it needs winds! Strong winds, in order to turn the blades. You will notice that if you ever scale a mountain or go higher, it starts to become windier/the wind blows harder.

If the wind mills are placed higher, it can capture these windier conditions, thus moving the wind blades to produce energy. The higher the hill, the stronger the wind current, the more energy it produces.

Two differences between hormones and the nervous system
leva [86]

Answer:

Hormones can be proteins, lipids or cholesterol-based molecules. Neurotransmitters are protein. The main difference between hormones and neurotransmitters is that Hormones are produced in the endocrine glands and released into the bloodstream where they find their movement targets at a distance from their origin. In contrast, Neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic space by a terminal of an excited presynaptic nerve cell and transmit a nerve signal to the neighboring postsynaptic nerve cell.
