<h2>Sodium channels </h2>

Explanation:

Depolarization is a result of sodium channels opening as a result of chemical or pressure-based stimuli    

  • Depolarization starts when a threshold stimulus applied on a neuron via Na+ mechanically operated channels that trigger action potential
  • Action potential is an efficient signaling process by which distantly located cells communicate to each other
  • Depolarization of membrane potential is due to influx of Na+ via voltage gated Na+ channels
  • Fast opening of voltage gated Na+ channel shifts membrane potential from -70mV to + 50mV at which voltage gated Na+ channels become inactive thus influx of Na+ abruptly stops

What is the savanna hypothesis? Group of answer choices Bipedalism was selectively favored because it helped our ancestors to st
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Both options are valid, since in the hypothesis of the savanna it was argued that humans acquired bipedalism to be able to self-supply their food more effectively, and to have less body surface area exposed to the sun.

Explanation:

The saban hypothesis is believed to have originated in the saban, with the Austrolopitecus africanus being forced to affect this domain, which is why it acquired this adaptation mechanism.

The savanna had high grasslands, which also led to collaboration in this regard since they could be better camouflaged.

In addition, the human began to defend with the limbs of the upper limb, triggering the canines to decrease in size since it is not used as a defense mechanism.

The canine is a tooth that helps to tear carnivorous food, that is why the human also begins to have a more varied diet of fruits and seeds and that it can reach and take the bones of the tree to increase its height due to bipedalism.

Tiktaalik had a combination of fishlike and tetrapod-like characteristics. which were the tetrapod-like characteristics? select
klemol [59]

The tetrapod-like characteristics are;  

a neck, flat head with eyes on top and interlocking ribs.

Tiktaalik is a large fresh water fish that has both fishlike and tetrapod-like characteristics. Tetrapods are four-legged vertebrates such as amphibians, reptiles. Tiktaalik has scales and gills like fishes but it also possesses unusual fins, a neck, interlocking ribs and flattened head with eyes on top (similar to the head of a crocodile).

List 3 factors that can speed up the rate of chemical reactions
zysi [14]

Answer:

  1. Temperature
  2. Greater Surface Area
  3. Catalysts

Explanation:

Temperature

  • An increase in temperature typically increases the rate of reaction. An increase in temperature will raise the average kinetic energy of the reactant molecules. Therefore, a greater proportion of molecules will have the minimum energy necessary for an effective collision (Figure. 17.5 “Temperature and Reaction Rate”).

Greater Surface Area

  • The rate of a chemical reaction can be raised by increasing the surface area of a solid reactant. ... more particles are exposed to the other reactant. there are more collisions. the rate of reaction increases.

Catalysts

  • A catalyst is a substance that can be added to a reaction to increase the reaction rate without getting consumed in the process. Catalysts typically speed up a reaction by reducing the activation energy or changing the reaction mechanism.

Hope this help!!!
