Answer: Anaesthesia blocks or impairs impulse transmission which helps patients not to feel pain during surgery

Explanation: . Local anesthesia affects the neural processes usually at the nodes of Ranvier by reducing the rate at which sodium ions(which are positive) flow through the membranes. Local anesthetics blocks sodium influx into the cell membranes ensuring that the minimum threshold for transmission is not reached thereby causing no pain.

General anesthesia on the other hand opens Chloride ions(which are negative ions) channel thereby allowing chloride to flow into the cell membranes causing hyperpolarization. As the negative ions increase, this shifts the membrane potential away from the minimum threshold thereby blocking the pain during surgery.

Answer:

This was due to the success in banking, trade, commerce and industries.

Explanation:

Throughout the Renaissance we see a movement of people from the country to the city.  This is called urbanization, and it resulted in Florence, Genoa, Venice and Milan becoming very powerful cities.  This was due to the success in banking, trade, commerce and industries.  Geographically, these city-states were surrounded by mountains to the north and water around them.  These features offered protection from invaders and opened opportunities for trade.

6. Streets were laid out in straight lines.

2. Stone tombs were built.

1. Stone walls protected villages.

4. Religious temples were built again.

3. Palaces were burned.

Explanation:

The text provides us with the timeline of the events in the history of Greek architecture. We learn these dates.

  • 3000 BC – Greeks build villages and <u>stone walls protecting it</u>
  • 1700 BC – Late bronze age, <u>stone tombs</u>, and bridges are built.
  • 1100 BC – Thigs fell apart and <u>palaces were burned</u>.
  • 850 BC – People <u>rebuilt religious temples</u> and things that were previously destroyed.
  • 432 BC – <u>Parthenon was built</u>, as well as large buildings (gymnasiums and stoas).
  • 300 BC – New architecture is built, such as theatres and <u>streets in straight lines.</u>

<u>Years counted BC (before Christ) are going “other way around” – from the highest to the lowest, as they are counting toward 0, the year Jesus Christ was born.</u>

<u>Looking at the listed events above, we can sequence these events like this</u>

  • <u>5. The Parthenon was built.</u>
  • <u>6. Streets were laid out in straight lines.</u>
  • <u>2. Stone tombs were built.</u>
