In unicellular organisms, the process of mitosis serves as a method or form of asexual reproduction, as organisms that are unicellular and are typically prokaryotic undergo mitosis to essentially duplicate and make additional offspring that are genetically identical clones as that of the original parent cell. Mitosis in multicellular organisms serves to replace lost, specifically damaged tissue of the organism, it also is crucial for the growth and development of the organism, as it is this particular portion of the cell cycle, when cells after growing and having their DNA duplicated can they separate and produce more and more cells.
Answer:
The addition and response to the net effect of postsynaptic potentials is called Spatial summation
Explanation:
Signal summation occurs when impulses received by a neuron are eummed together to reach the excitation threshold to fire a neuron. It occurs at the axon hillock of a neuron. Signal summation occurs since each neuron is connected to many other neurons, often receiving multiple impulses from them, both excitatory and inhibitory.
Signal summation can either be temporal or spatial.
Temporal summation, occurs when impulses received at the same place on the neuron in close temporal succession add up to initiate an action potential in the neuron.
Spatial summation occurs when impulses received simultaneously at different places on the neuron add up to initiate an action potential in the neuron.
Answer:
Every fossil tells us something about the age of the rock it's found in, and index fossils are the ones that tell us the most. Index fossils (also called key fossils or type fossils) are those that are used to define periods of geologic time
Explanation:
Answer:
The Pepsi he drinks at 10 pm
Explanation:
Pepsi is a caffeinated drink that has caffeine in it. Caffeine is a stimulant which means it keeps the body awake and alert. Caffeine works by mimicking adenosine. Adenosine is produced by neuron cells and when it binds to its own receptors (autocrine signaling) it triggers the neurons cells to continue firing. As the adenosine levels fall as the day progresses, the brain is signaled that it is time rest. Adenosine levels are at the lowest when its almost bedtime. However, when Jon takes Pepsi, the caffeine in it bind to the adenosine receptors and make the brain neurons to keep ‘firing’.
