IPSPs are the result of:

a. decreasing membrane conductance to sodium

b. decreasing membrane conductance to potassium

c. inhibitory neurotransmitter entering the postsynaptic cell

d. neurotransmitter binding to ligand-gated ion channels that are chloride selective

Answer:

d. neurotransmitter binding to ligand-gated ion channels that are chloride selective

Explanation:

IPSP refers to inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP). It occurs when the neurotransmitters released from the axon terminals of the presynaptic neurons bind to and open the chloride ion channels. This allows the entry of chloride ions into the neuron making the inside of the membrane even more negative. This does not allow firing of the action potential. The postsynaptic neuron is said to be hyperpolarized. Therefore, IPSP results from hyperpolarization of postsynaptic neurons by the opening of ion channels such as chloride channels.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. A and C.

Explanation:

Lymphoid tissue is the body part that is an essential part of the immune system that provides immune response against different infection or pathogens and protects from these foreign bodies. These tissues are present in all over the body that includes spleen, adenoids, tonsils, lymph nodes and other parts.

Lymphoid tissues or organs are the sites of the proliferation of the macrophages and lymphocytes. These structures also assist in furnishing surveillance points for lymphocytes and macrophages.  

Thus, the correct answer is option D. A and C.

10. If there are very few differences in the DNA of two different species, what can we infer about their relationship? For examp
Burka [1]

Answer:

Chimpanzees.

Explanation:

DNA sequence similarity is helpful to determine the evolutionary relationship between the organisms. The evolutionary tree can easily be constructed if the percentage of the DNA sequence similarity is known.

The human shows 98.8% sequence similarity with chimpanzee. The sequence similarity between human and gorilla DNA is 98.4%. This means Chimpanzee are more closely related to humans than gorillas.

Thus, the answer is chimpanzee.
