Answer:
The molecules in a solid are more closely packed than those in a gas. Gas molecules are VERY spread apart, which is why we cannot see them.
Explanation:
Answer:
action potentials

electrical impulses
muscular contractions
action potentials is likely your best bet though
The normal membrane potential inside the axon of nerve cells is –70mV, and since this potential can change in nerve cells it is called the resting potential. When a stimulus is applied a brief reversal of the membrane potential, lasting about a millisecond, occurs. This brief reversal is called the action potential
<span>A stimulus can cause the membrane potential to change a little. The voltage-gated ion channels can detect this change, and when the potential reaches –30mV the sodium channels open for 0.5ms. The causes sodium ions to rush in, making the inside of the cell more positive. This phase is referred to as a depolarisation since the normal voltage polarity (negative inside) is reversed (becomes positive inside). </span>
<span>Repolarisation. At a certain point, the depolarisation of the membrane causes the sodium channels to close. As a result the potassium channels open for 0.5ms, causing potassium ions to rush out, making the inside more negative again. Since this restores the original polarity, it is called repolarisation. As the polarity becomes restored, there is a slight ‘overshoot’ in the movement of potassium ions (called hyperpolarisation). The resting membrane potential is restored by the Na+K+ATPase pump.</span>

<h2>Car</h2>
Explanation:
Carbon dioxide is a type of colorless gas that is present in the atmosphere in a very trace amount. This gas plays an important role in the process of photosynthesis that occurs in green plants. There are many sources that increase the percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that has an adverse effect on nature and causes global warming. Car, trucks and many other machines are responsible for the production of carbon dioxide gases directly or indirectly.
