Explain how the message is transmitted from the receiving neuron’s dendrites down the axon all the way to the axon terminal (ele

Physics

Vikki [24]3 years ago

The vesicles release neurotransmitters. These cross the synapse and are accepted by the receptors in the dendrites of the next neuron.

Explanation:

An axon, or nerve fiber, is a long slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that conducts electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body. Axons are in effect the primary transmission lines of the nervous system, and as bundles they help make up nerves.

When an action potential reaches the axon terminal, it depolarizes the membrane and opens voltage-gated Na+ channels. Na+ ions enter the cell, further depolarizing the presynaptic membrane.

Camera flashes charge a capacitor to high voltage by switching the current through an inductor on and off rapidly. In what time
Ber [7]

Answer:

The value is  \Delta  t = 4.0 *10^{-7} \  s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The current is \Delta  I  = 0.100 \  A

  The  inductor  is L  =  2.0mH  =  2.0*10^{-3} \  H

  The voltage induced is  \epsilon   =  500 V

Generally the emf induced is mathematically represented as

      \epsilon =  L  *  \frac{\Delta I }{\Delta  t }

Here  \Delta  t is the time taken  

=>  \Delta  t =  \frac{L  * \Delta  I }{\epsilon }

=>  \Delta  t =  \frac{2*10^{-3}  * 0.100 }{500  }

=>  \Delta  t = 4.0 *10^{-7} \  s

Elements that typically give up electrons CHECK ALL THAT APPLY
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

B. have a lower ionization energy

D. are metals

Explanation:

An atom can be defined as the smallest unit comprising of matter that forms all chemical elements. Thus, atoms are basically the building blocks of matters and as such determines or defines the structure of a chemical element.

Generally, atoms are typically made up of three distinct particles and these are protons, neutrons and electrons.

In Chemistry, electrons can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.

Valency can be defined as a measure of the combining power of a chemical element with other atoms to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Typically, valency is measured by the amount of hydrogen atoms that a chemical element can combine with or displace to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Ionization energy can be defined as the minimum energy required to remove or detach an electron from a neutral atom in a gaseous state.

Generally, the ionization energy of chemical elements tend to increase from left to right across a period on the periodic table. This increase is due to the fact that the atomic radius of chemical elements generally decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon) i.e from left to the right of the periodic table. Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

This ultimately implies that, atoms with relatively large atomic radii tend to have a low electron affinity and a low ionization energy.

In conclusion, chemical elements that typically give up electrons are metals because their outermost shell contains excess electrons and have a lower ionization energy.

What is the equation for potential energy?
Mrrafil [7]
You can calculate potential energy by:
U = m.g.h

Where, U = potential energy
m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height

Hope this helps!

Naddika [18.5K]
<span>Nuclear energy is cleaner while generating electricity. Nuclear fission provides energy without releasing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. However, nuclear power plants generate significant amounts of radioactive waste.  That is why we should not choose nuclear energy over fossil fuel power plants.</span>
