Depolarization and Hyperpolarization occurs when ion channels open and close.

Explanation:

In some specific part of the membrane of neuron, the potential of the membrane becomes less positive it is that results in Hyperpolarization. Depolarization is in contrast with this, since the potential of the membrane will become less negative in this type. these two types occurs during the opening and closing of ion channels that are present in the membrane. This will result making the ions either entering the cell or exiting the cell.

hyperpolarization occurs when the channels opens and resulting in letting the ions that are positive to exit out of the cell. When the channel opening results in letting the positively charged ions to get into the cell, then depolarization occurs. The channel opening and closing highly depends on the binding nature of the molecules that are signalling.

What is the main purpose of oxygen of glucose in the body?
scoray [572]
Oxygen is required for aerobic respiration. This reaction produces ATP (universal currency for energy) which our bodies use to survive. Without oxygen much less ATP is produced, as aerobic respiration cannot occur in the lack of oxygen. ATP can be formed by anaerobic respiration, in the lack of oxygen, but this produces far far fewer molecules of ATP. This also produces lactic acid causing us to become fatigued and tired. Thus oxygen is crucial to produce the maximum amount of ATP possible.  

Glucose is the main molecule which is respired by our bodies to produce ATP/ energy, which our bodies use to survive. Oxygen and glucose react in the mitochondria to make ATP (release energy.) It therefore, is called a respiratory substrate.

Note: I'm avoided talking about the exact phases of respiration as it is usually not covered till college/ A level standards. If you would like to know exactly which reaction requires oxygen and how it's used (i.e. the stages of respiration) don't hesitate to ask.
