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.

In what phase of meiosis is DNA replicated?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Helen [10]

Based on this data, you may safely conclude that THE SUPPLEMENT MAY CONTAIN CARBOHYDRATES AND LIPIDS AND ONE OTHER FOOD GROUP BASED ON THE ELEMENT THAT IS PRESENT.
Carbohydrates and lipids are food macro molecules whose building elements are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Thus, the presence of these elements in the food supplement means that the food macro molecules are probably present.<span />
