E) All of the answers are correct.
Ion channels are proteins located in the membrane that allow ions to pass through the channel pore. Ion channels can be classified (by what opens and closes the channels) into few groups:
• Voltage-gated channels-open and close in response to membrane potential
Examples: Voltage-gated proton channels, Voltage-gated sodium channels, Voltage-gated potassium channels
• Ligand-gated (neurotransmitter) or ionotropic receptors (ligand binds to extracellular domain of the receptor
Examples: "nicotinic" Acetylcholine receptor, ionotropic glutamate-gated receptors
• Lipid-gated- lipid molecules bind to the transmembrane domain of the channel
Example: Inward-rectifier potassium channels
• Light-gated channels-like rhodopsin channel that is directly opened by photons
• Mechanosensitive (e.g. stretch, pressure) ion channels.
It can be shown and proven right in front of you. You can also interact with it.
Answer:
Research has found that medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are the most healthful type of saturated fat. Coconut, for example, is rich in MCTs. Unsaturated fats contain one or more double or triple bonds between the molecules. As oils, these fats are liquids at room temperature.
<span>The autonomic nervous system
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is the part of the peripheral nervous system that acts as a control system, functioning largely below the level of consciousness and controlling visceral functions. The ANS affects heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, salivation, perspiration, pupillary dilation, micturition (urination), and sexual arousal. The ANS is classically divided into two subsystems: the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) and sympathetic nervous system (SNS).</span>
