Answer:

If an inhibitory synapse fires at the same time and at the same distance from the initial segment as an excitatory synapse of the same intensity there will be no changes in the potential in the firing zone.

Explanation:

An excitatory synapse is one capable of depolarizing a cell and boosting the production of action potential, provided it is capable of reaching the threshold of said potential.

On the other hand, an inhibitory synapse is able to hyperpolarize the cell membrane and prevent an action potential from originating, so that they can inhibit the action of an excitatory synapse.

The interaction between two synapses, one excitatory and one inhibitory, -called synapse summation- will depend on the strength that each of them possesses. In this case, the intensity of both synapses being the same, there will be no changes in the membrane potential in the firing zone.

What is the average height of 5 trees if the measurments are: 2.39, 2.39, 1.04, 2.44 and 0.28
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

1.708

Explanation:

Take the mean of the numbers.

2.39   +   2.39   +   1.04   +   2.44   +   0.28 = 8.54

8.54/5 = 1.708

Compare and contrast the mechanisms by which a small, non-polar molecule (such as CO2) and a larger, more complex molecule (such
skad [1K]
CO2 is a relatively small non-polar molecule that can easily fit through the phospholipids in the plasma membrane without getting repelled by the hydrophobic core of the bilayer. Hence CO2 diffuses across the membrane without the aid of any intrinsic proteins (simple diffusion).

Amino acids however are large molecules that cannot fit through phospholipids in the bilayer. Hence, amino acids are most likely to diffuse across the cell plasma membrane with the help of channel and carrier proteins via facilitated diffusion.

You'll be able to make contrast and compare by reading both of them.
