What kind of channels are located in the input region?

Biology
1 answer:
tamaranim1 [39]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option B ( ligand gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules).

Explanation:

Input region or postsynaptic region or dendrite is the site of neuron cell which receives the impulse from the pre-synaptic neuron at the synaptic junction.

The cell membrane of the dendrite is embedded with ligand-gated channels which opens up in response to the ligand (neurotransmitters) produced by the neurotransmitter vesicle of axon or output region of neuron.

The neuromuscular junction is such a case where acetylcholine receptors present in the dendrite opens in the presence of acetylcholine.

Thus, option B ( ligand-gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules) is the correct option.

Why is a lack of oxygen fatal to cells?
sveticcg [70]
Oxygen is a vital element within cellular respiration. An intrinsic part of the cellular respiration cycle is the transfer or electrons through the electron transport chain, and at the end of it exists the mitochondria, in which electrons are donated to the Oxygen and combine with hydrogen ions to form water.

You observe a high proportion of malarial infections in a small village located in Angola. Malaria is caused by the protozoan Pl

Answer:

<em>B and C.</em>

Explanation:

The epidemiological triangle is an illustration of interaction among suitable hosts, disease agents, and the environment that drives successful outbreak of diseases.

In order to successfully tackle or reduce the incidence of a disease, the triangle has to be broken.

<em>In the case of malaria which is caused by plasmodium but spread through the female anopheles mosquito, one way of breaking the epidemiological triangle is to eliminate female anopheles mosquito in the environment using any possible means. This will stop the spread of the parasite and hence, the disease.</em>

<em>Another way to reduce/prevent malaria is to prevent the vector, female anopheles mosquito from getting to the host, the human populace. This can also be achieved by several possible means.</em>

Relocating the entire village to a neighbouring village might not break the epidemiological triangle as long as female anopheles mosquito still abounds. In the same vein, antibacterial drugs will not help to treat malaria. However, instructing residents on personal protective measures and controlling the vector through chemical larvicides will go a long way in breaking the triangle and reducing the incidence on the malaria disease.

<em>The correct options is B and C.</em>

The large number of antibodies that can be produced in a single individual is a result of a single B cell: producing multiple un
wariber [46]

The answer is; producing a unique antibody from all other B cells by genomic rearrangement.


An isolated B cell produces monoclonal antibodies (also called Immunoglobulins). Different B cell types produce different types of antibodies (hence the serum of an animal has polyclonal antibodies). Memory B cells are developed when a particular infection is eradicated by the immune system. These B cells proliferate when the infection returns by producing the same antibodies that were effective against the foreign entity.

Your digestive system is equipped with a diversity of enzymes that
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Enzymes are named according to <em>the reaction they catalyze</em>. Polymers are made of subunits joined together by different types of bonds, forming a macromolecule.

Hydrolases are used by the organism to catalyze the hydrolysis of polymers so they can be easily manipulated as monomers. Hydrolysis means reacting with water, water can break the bonds of different polymers turning it into its constitutive monomers.

Which valves produce the second heart sound when they snap shut?
Taya2010 [7]
Answer: D) Pulmonary and aortic valves.

Explanation
There are two main heartbeats from a healthy heart.

The first beat is called the S1 or the lub, and it occurs when the atrioventricular valves (comprising the mitral and tricuspid valves) close.

The second beat is called the S2 or the dub, and it occurs when the semilunar valves (comprising the aortic and pulmonary valves) close.

Listening for heart beats is an essential part of cardiac auscultation.
