<u>Answer:</u>

The typical state of a neuron is the<u> resting potential</u>, but when electrical signals stimulate it to its threshold, the <u>action potential</u> is immediately observed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The capacity for rest shows what occurs when a neuron is at rest. A capacity for action takes place when a neuron passes information down an axon, far from the cell body. When depolarization exceeds approximately -55 mV a neuron can activate the capacity for action.

Sodium-potassium valves start moving two potassium ions within the cell as three sodium ions are poured out to keep the negatively charged membrane within the cell; this keeps the resting potential in place.

Robert, an aspiring scientist in a biology class, wanted to conduct a study on the effects of cigarette smoke on the web-buildin
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

<em>The statement that is incorrect is :</em>

<em>Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders.</em>

Explanation:

A theory can be described as a descriptive explanation of a phenomenon which is supported by valid experiments and careful examination of facts. As Robert, has not conducted any experiments nor has proved his study with reference to facts, hence it cannot be considered as a theory.

Robert wanted to see if his observation was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders will be the correct statement that could be used.

Union of haploid and diploid gamete results in a zygote that is
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Triploid

Explanation:

The process whereby gametes produced by different sexes of the same species of organism come together is called FERTILIZATION. A gamete is said to be HAPLOID (n) if it contains one set of chromosomes while it is DIPLOID (2n) if it contains two sets of chromosomes.

Hence, if an haploid (n) and diploid (2n) gamete unites, a zygote that is TRIPLOID (3n) emerges or forms. A triploid zygote will have three sets of chromosomes i.e. n + 2n = 3n.

wolverine [178]

Answer: movement is always voluntary

Explanation:

Muscles are contractile:

- Contractility is the ability of muscle cells to forcefully shorten. Think of having the ability to flex a muscle.

Muscles are excitable:

- Excitable tissue can conduct or transmit electrical impulses. Basically, it can react to stimulus, which may be delivered from a motor neuron or a hormone. For example, the hormone epinephrine helps muscles to produce force.

Muscles respond to stimulus:

- well since muscles are an excitable tissue, they can react to stimulus. (see answer above)

————————

Muscle movement is NOT always voluntary:

- Some muscle movement is voluntary, which means it is under conscious control. For example, a person decides to open a book and read. Other movements are involuntary, meaning they are not under conscious control, such as the contraction of your pupil in bright light, breathing, blinking, your heart beating, etc.

- Therefore, the correct answer is:

movement is always voluntary

hope this helps :)
