A general mechanism by which postsynaptic potentials are terminated involves Group of answer choices increased synthesis of the
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - reuptake of the neurotransmitter molecule into the axon through a membrane transporter.

Explanation:

The action of a neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic cell or postsynaptic potentials is terminated by any of these mechanisms that are enzymatic degradation, diffusion or reuptake into the presynaptic cell by specific transporters.

After the desired biological response by postsynaptic potentials, in order to avoid over stimulation or termination of the postsynaptic potentials the neurotransmitter is taken back into the axon through a membrane transporter. This mechanism is to maintain a balance.

Carbohydrates are an example of a biological macromolecule. The structure of a biological macromolecule affects the function.
inn [45]

Answer:

The functional groups determine the shapes of macromolecules and this in turn determines their functions.

Functional groups affect the bonds that hold a macromolecule together. For example, the ring forms of glucose in starch and cellulose have different configurations. As a result, cellulose and starch serve different purposes.  

Functional groups also affect the polarity of the bonds. Lipids consist of hydrophilic heads (red) and hydrophobic tails (black and white). This characteristic of lipids allows them to form bilayers, which serve as membranes of cells.  

Proteins have complex structures caused by interactions between the functional groups. A change of a single amino acid can make a major change in the function of a protein.

The cells of plant seeds store oils in the form of droplets enclosed by membranes. The oil droplet membrane consists of a single
xenn [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

A single layer of phospholipids forms what is called a micelle. The polar and hydrophilic phospho head groups would form the outermembrane which interacts with the aqueous environment. The nonpolar and hydrophobic lipid tails would be in the cytosol where they pack tightly and form stable interactions with the hydrophobic chains of the stored oil molecules.
