Biology
1 answer:
monitta3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It is because sedimentation will more often occur in marine ecosystems

Explanation:

Formation of fossils (through the process of fossilization) is a rare event because animal bodies are often eaten and decayed (destroyed by scavengers and decomposed by worms). But, fossilization can be achieved after the quick burial of an animal.

So, for example, dead marine animals might be buried by sediment that is carried by the water. Also, sediment can precipitate on the ocean floor, covering the remaining of dead animals.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

they are Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ion channels.

Explanation:

Ionotropic acetylcholine receptors are also called nicotinic acetylcholine receptors because beside acetylcholine (Ch) they respond to nicotine. These receptors are  primary receptors in muscle for motor nerve-muscle communication that controls muscle contraction.

Two molecules of ACh are required for receptor to open. Since the receptors are  linked to ion channels, the channels open. Opening of the channel allows positively charged ions to move across it: sodium enters the cell and potassium exits.
