Answer:

The correct answer would be - the potassium ions continue to move out of the axon.

Explanation:

During transmission of the impulse when sodium channels are closed and potassium channels are open, the cell membrane of the axon cell becomes hyperpolarized due to the continuous movement of the potassium ion to outside the axon. During this refractory period, the impulse can not be fire or generated.

Thus, the correct answer would be - the potassium ions continue to move out of the axon.

As the yeast feeds on the sugar, it produces carbon dioxide. With no place to go but up, this gas slowly fills the balloon.

A very similar process happens as bread rises. Carbon dioxide from yeast fills thousands of balloonlike bubbles in the dough. Once the bread has baked, this is what gives the loaf its airy texture.

Answer:

genotype is responsible for establishing phenotype

Explanation:

When Mendel experimented with pea plants, concept of genes and alleles had not come up yet. Through his experiments Mendel first proved that some type of combination in cells leads to a particular phenotype.

He coined the term "factors" which are today known as alleles. These factors paired up and displayed a particular phenotype. Today we know that the alleles are responsible for a genotype which ultimately results in a phenotype. Hence, he established that genotype is responsible for establishing phenotype even before the term genotype was coined.
