Imagine you genetically engineered a neuron to produce voltage-gated Na" and K channels that opened at the same time in response

to a change in voltage. How would that change the recording shown in the figure? eacitation 1 4 Resting potential A) Threshold values would increase B) The peak voltage would be higher. C) The peak would occur over a longer period of time. D) The period of hyperpolarization would be longer. E) No action potential would be generated.

Answer:

E) No action potential would be generated.

Explanation:

As we know the voltage gated Na and K channels has specific roles in the generation of action potential. When both the channels are opened at the same time sodium will move inside and potassium will move outside no action potential would be generated.

At the peak of action potential , area of the neuron is about 40 mV positive. Now when the voltage becomes positive , sodium channels close and the potassium channels open.

When the potassium channels open , they cause the potassium ions to rush out of the cell thus causing the voltage to become negative again.

Hence E) No action potential would be generated is the right answer.

Susan was bitten by an Anopheles mosquito and tested positive for malaria. What type of pathogen has caused this infection
RideAnS [48]

Complete question:

Question: Susan was bitten by an Anopheles mosquito and tested positive for malaria. What type of pathogen has caused this infection

a. Bacterium

b. Protozoan

c. Prion

d. Virus

Answer:

b. Protozoan

Explanation:

Plasmodium is the causative agent of malaria and is carried by female Anopheles mosquito. The parasite enters the bloodstream when the female Anopheles mosquito bites. Plasmodium is a parasitic protozoan and belongs to the kingdom Protista. Protozoans are unicellular eukaryotes. They are heterotrophic organisms and derive their nutrition from parasitism or predation. Plasmodium is a sporozoan since its spore life stage of the life cycle is infectious.

How are rocks DIFFERENT from minerals?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic compound with a unique chemical structure and physical properties. A rock is a solid, stony mass composed of a combination of minerals or other organic compounds. For example, quartz and feldspars are minerals, but when formed together, they make a rock, granite.
