Answer;

-Dendrites receive chemical signals.

-When more excitatory than inhibitory signals are received, the cell depolarizes.

-An action potential is set off and travels through the cell and down the axon.

-The action potential excites the terminal buttons to release their chemicals into the synaptic cleft.

Explanation;

-The electrical signal that passes along the axon and subsequently causes the release of chemicals from the terminal buttons

. Chemical signals (excitatory and inhibitory signals.

-Positive sodium pours into the breach, Action potential propagates along the axon, after firing returns to its slightly negative resting state.

-An action potential can be generated if the amount of excitatory input can raise the membrane potential to -55 mV. This then floods the cell with sodium ions and raises the membrane potential. When it reaches a certain point (about +30 mV), the sodium ion channels close and the potassium ion channels open. This drops the membrane potential back down.

Why would a drug that damages capsids help treat a viral infection?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

The correct answer is D. Without capsids, viruses could not replicate

Explanation:

A viral infection is caused as a virus enters the body and this replicates inside it by using the host's cells. This is possible through the capsid which is an external layer in the virus that provides protection to it and helps the virus replicate because the capsid is essential for the virus to attach and penetrate the host's cells to replicate. According to this, if a drug damages the capsids the virus could not replicate and this should or reduce the infection caused by the virus. Thus, a drug that damages capsids helps treat a viral infection because "without capsids, viruses could not replicate".
