Answer:water diffuses into the phloem from the xylem and sucrose moves to the sink

Explanation:Translocation is the movement of ready produced food substances from the site of production to places in the plant where food is needed. such as the roots.the place where food is produced is called the source, the the place where food is used up is called the sink.the leaves are the source in a plant.photsoynthates, which is the plant manufactired food, may move up and down the stem ,majorly to areas of storage and growth.

Surose is the major intermediate product of photosynthesis.it is the form in which sugar is transported.it is conducted by the phloem vessels.this takes place in the long sieve elements that forms the sieve tubes

The high percentage of sucrose in the phloem sap causes water to pass into it from the xylem. This then causes the sap to move from source to sink.

At the sink, sucrose diffuses out of the phloem.it is either stored up or used for growth and repairs

1: Describe the events of the muscle stimulation and contraction starting with the influx of Ca at the synaptic knob (of the neu
meriva

Answer:

Explanation:

motor neuron is the neuron that have it's connection to a muscle at the neuromuscular junction,. At his junction, a synaptic cleft that has a motor end plate is formed by the activity of the terminal called "synaptic terminal". Diffusion of the acetylcholine across the synaptic cleft then occur which result to the sarcolemma been depolarized, as a result of the depolarization there is a output of Ca2+ and muscle contraction

The effect that botox have on the neuromuscular junction and its function is that there is interaction between Botox and neural transmission which obstruct the acetylcholine to be released, which result to paralysis of muscle.

Chloroplasts are organelles that convert light energy to sugars. These organelles are found only in plants. Which organelles are
tresset_1 [31]

Answer: centrioles and centrosomes

Explanation:

Centrioles are small granules found near the nucleus of ONLY animal cells from which flagella and cilia arise. Its functions include

- helping in cell division

- serving as basal body

Centrosomes also is located near the nucleus of animal cells and arranges microtubules. Its function is mainly giving protection to cell.

How does an impulse travel from one neuron to another?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

When a nerve impulse reaches the end of an axon, the axon releases chemicals called neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters travel across the synapse between the axon and the dendrite of the next neuron.

Explanation:

The binding allows the nerve impulse to travel through the receiving neuron.
