Why are channels through membranes so important for nerve and muscle function? both nerves and muscles rely on the rapid transmi

ssion of information and of signals for movement. the diffusion of chemical signals over any significant distance would be too slow to cause muscle contractions quickly enough to deal with the challenges of moving a large body in a complex environment. electrical signals travel much more rapidly and the direction of the signal can be more easily controlled. the mechanism for generating and controlling electrical signals is the movement of charged material (ions) across cellular membranes in a limited area. the control of ion movement requires gated channels through the membrane that are specific for certain ions and either open or close (depending on the ion) in response to a change in electrical charge. view the animation below, then complete the quiz to test your knowledge of the concept?

The Steady State Theory state that the density of the universe was remaining constant.

<h3>Steady State Theory:</h3>

In cosmology, a steady-state theory is a perspective that holds that the universe is constantly expanding while maintaining a constant average density. According to this theory, the matter is continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate that older ones fade away due to their expanding distance and accelerating recession. The average density and configuration of galaxies are the same as any location in a steady-state universe, which has no beginning or end in time.

British scientists Sir Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold, and Sir Fred Hoyle first proposed the hypothesis in 1948. Hoyle expanded on it in order to address issues that had come up in relation to the alternative big-bang theory. According to the hypothesis, in order to maintain a constant average density of matter across time, the new matter must constantly be created, primarily as hydrogen. With nearly five times as much dark matter, the amount needed is small and not immediately observable: one solar mass of baryons per cubic megaparsec every year, or one hydrogen atom per cubic meter every billion years.

Geologists, more specifically mineralogists, identify minerals based on ________. A. Optical properties. B. Solid properties. C.
Shkiper50 [21]

The minerals are mostly characterized by the <u>Physical</u><u> </u><u>properties</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>D</u><u>)</u> which includes the hardness, lustre, density etc. The mineralogists check the detailed view of minerals by using high powered microscope.

The minerals are chemical compounds which are formed as a result of physical processes or geological processes. They mostly occur in crystalline form. <u>For Example:</u> Cacite, Sulfur, Quartz etc.
