Explanation:
Answer:
A. Conduct impulses faster.
Explanation:
Myelinated axons are called that way due to the myelin sheath that surrounds them. Myelin has an insulation property so electrical impulses cannot travel through it, except on certain sites called Nodes of Ranvier. In order for electrical impulses to be conducted on myelinated axons they must "jump" from one Node of Ranvier to the next, and thus conduction is faster. This is called saltatory conduction.
Answer:
option 1
Explanation:
The warm waters of the Gulf Stream run along the east coast of the United States. This provides an environment which is conducive to the development of hurricanes. The basics of the formation of a hurricane are as follows. Winds start blowing in a circular motion. This causes hot, moist air to rise. Clouds are formed and the winds start blowing faster and faster. This forms a low-pressure zone. The surrounding high-pressure zones pull the hurricane towards them. As the hurricane moves, it either picks up speed or decreases its speed and intensity.
Answer: By definition, if the atomic number =
7
, then there are 7 protons, 7 electrons, and 8 neutrons!
Explanation:
The atomic number is by definition the number of protons, positively charged particles, contained within the atomic nucleus. So if there are 7 protons, there MUST be 7 electrons, 7 negatively charged particles. Why? Because matter is electrically neutral, and positive and negative particles must be equal.
Electrons have negligible mass; the mass number depends on the number of protons contained within the nucleus, PLUS the number of neutrons. Given that we have 15 N
, there must be 8 neutrons contained within the nucleus. does this help?
