Action potentials (nerve impulses) are changes in the membrane potential that, once started, will affect the entire excitable me

mbrane. The first action potential is usually generated at the initial segment of the neuron’s axon. This activity will test your understanding of the sequence of events that occur at the membrane of the initial segment of the axon during generation of an action potential.
Place the events involved in generation of an action potential in the correct order of occurrence from left to right.
1.K+ efflux, Repolarization
2.Na+ channels close, K+ channels open
3.Hyperpolarization, K+ channels close
4.Threshold stimulus, Na+ channels open
5.Na+ influx, Depolarization

Answer:

The order of events would be:

4.Threshold stimulus, Na+ channels open.  This is the first event

5.Na+ influx, Depolarization. Second event

2.Na+ channels close, K+ channels open.  This is the third event

1.K+ efflux, Repolarization.  Fourth event

3.Hyperpolarization, K+ channels close

Explanation:

In resting state, the membrane is negative inside, and  K+ concentration is higher than outside.   Na+ concentration is higher outside instead.  

Sodium influx is responsible for membrane depolarization.  It's the event to produce the action potential.  When sodium channels are closing, potassium channels open and K+ go outside until repolarization occurs. But now we have both ions in different sides of the membrane, and this can't be stimulated again to produce other action potential. The membrane will remain refractory to respond to the adequate stimulus until ions migrate to their original sites.  This is Na+ outside, and K+ inside.  This is responsibility of the Na+/ K+ pump, that uses ATP to pump Na+ out, and  K+ in. Once both ions had been relocated in the membrane, this is ready to receive a correct stimulus to produce a new action potential.

Why is it important to scientists for a hypothesis to be testable? How would the experiment differ if it were not?
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A Scientific Hypothesis Must Be Testable

For a hypothesis to be testable means that it is possible to make observations that agree or disagree with it. If a hypothesis cannot be tested by making observations, it is not scientific.19-Feb-2021

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

This suggests that the moustache is a releaser for aggression.

Explanation:

<em>Fixed action patterns</em> are instinctive programmed responses in different species that are triggered by a specific external sensory stimulus. These stimuli are called sign stimuli or releaser. When the sign occurs, the animal starts a sequence of acts in response to the stimulus and continuous until the series of actions is completed.

The black feathers resembling a mustache in a <em>Northern flickers</em> male are an external sensory stimulus. This trait that can provoke another male to respond aggressively, as a f<em>ixed action pattern</em>.  

This trait might be considered as an <em>unconditioned stimulus</em>, which <em>provokes an unlearned or reflex reaction</em>. These aggressive responses are triggered by reflex.
