<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

List and describe the functions of carbohydrates in the body. Explain how the body maintains glucose levels, including which hor
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

There are different function performed by carbohydrates in the body like-

Storage: When there is excess glucose present in the body they are stored as glycogen in muscles and liver.

Providing energy: Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy for the cells present in our body.

Carbohydrate helps to spare proteins and lipids and helps in providing polysaccharides for membrane carbohydrates.

The body maintains blood glucose levels through hormones. For example, when the blood glucose level gets high insulin is released in the blood by the pancreas which reduces the blood glucose level by accumulating glucose as glycogen in the liver and muscle.

Glucagon works opposite to insulin and increases the blood glucose level.
