Answer:

The answers are "Temporal Summation" and "Spatial Summation".

Explanation:

The experiment explained in the question is performed to observe action potentials and postsynaptic potentials in the neurons and how they affect them to behave differently.

In the first experiment, Temporal Summation is observed which occurs when one presynaptic neuron fires because of the changes in it's axon terminal.

In the second experiment, Spatial Summation is observed which occurs when ,unlike the temporal summation, more than one presynaptic neuron release neurotransmitters to cause the postsynaptic neuron to fire as a result.

I hope this answer helps.

What might happen if genetically modified fish were introduced into an aquaculture facility?
charle [14.2K]
If a genetically modified fish was introduced into an aquaculture facility it may become an invasive species. This is because they do not support the naturally occurring processes that commercially raised fishes have. These invasive species have the ability to harm the thriving ecosystem of the aquaculture fishes, hence the probable decrease in its population might take effect.

Complete a Punnett square for the cross-pollination of a female (TT) and a male (Tt). Write in the correct answers to complete t
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

50% chances of Tt

50% chances of TT

Explanation:

In the given question it is given that there is a cross-pollination between a female (TT) and a male (Tt), which means female has two dominant copies of a trait in her genotype while the male is a heterozygous, the gametes of these genotypes will be:

gametes: T, t and T, T

then cross will be:

     T       T

T   TT    TT

t     Tt     Tt

Thus, the given result shows 1/2 TT and the rest 1/2 Tt by this Punnett square.
