____________ is the process by which inhibitory transmitters cause the inside of the neuron to become more negative.

Biology
1 answer:
lidiya [134]3 years ago

Answer:

Hyperpolarization

Explanation:

At the synapse, neurotransmitters bind to neurotransmitter receptors in the postsynaptic neuron’s plasma membrane. This results in the opening of the ions channels and the flow of specific ions to change the voltage across the membrane. An inhibitory neurotransmitter inhibits the firing of the action potential by making the inside of the membrane more negative. It is called hyperpolarization (inhibition).

It may occur when the neurotransmitter opens the Cl– or K+ channels to allow the movement of chloride ions into the cell while permitting the outward movement of potassium ions to make the inside of the cell more negative.

What will happen if we put a Rhoeo leaf in plain water?
Oksanka [162]

<span>If we put a Rhoeo leaf in plain water, the water concentration of the leaf cells will be higher than that of the plain water. The aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the organism. So, the water will exit the leaf cells, which will consequently shrink in size. The most of the cells will shrink in size, causing the leaf to shrink, too.</span>

Describe the principle of MPN for enumerating bacteria from a natural sample.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

MNP stands for the most probable number which is used for finding out the concentration of viable bacteria in a sample. It is commonly used to check the quality of water and its safety. Usually, the presence of fecal coliform bacteria is checked in this test.  

Principle of MNP: The sample which is to be tested is diluted serially and then inoculated into a broth medium containing lactose. If coliforms are present in the tube than it will consume lactose and release acid and gas.

Color change represents acid production and gas trapped in the Durham tube represents the gas production by bacteria. Then the number of tubes at each dilution that showed positive results are compared with standards to determine the most probable number of the bacteria.
