Answer: This is due to inhibitory postsynaptic potential.

Explanation: Inhbitory postsynaptic pontential causes less or no action potential, due to that target nueron recieves negative signals from the transmitter or it has no receptors that can respond to that particular nuerotransmitter as there are many nuerotransmitters varying in sizes and shapes with specificity. Meaning a different nuerotransmitter will generate an electrical impulse to a certain kind of nueron causing an inhibitory/excited response which in this case the response was inhibitory.

How does the structure of the small intestine help it to perform its function?
Mumz [18]

The correct answer is:

D .Villi in the small intestine have thin-walled capillaries to make the absorption of nutrients more efficient.

Explanation:

The small intestines are well adjusted for absorbing nutrients during digestion by being very long, having villi and microvilli that enlarge surface area, using muscular contractions to move and mix food, and raising and housing digestive enzymes and bile that aid the breakdown of food. The inner surface of the small intestine is not flat but thrown into circular folds, which not only enhance surface area but aid in preparing the ingesta by acting as baffles. Villi: the mucosa makes multitudes of ridges which project into the lumen and are satisfied with epithelial cells.

8. A scoop of ammonium nitrate is added to a beaker of water. Which is a quantitative observation of the experiment?
BaLLatris [955]

The correct answer is B. The temperature of the water decreased by 5°C

Explanation:

Temperature and the changes in it are part of quantitative observations because these can only be measured and understood through numbers. Indeed, the temperature is globally measured through different numerical scales such as the Celsius or the Kelvin scale. This does not occur in other qualities such as color because this is considered and analyzing using qualities or traits rather than values. According to this, the correct answer is "The temperature of the water decreased by 5°C."
