When repeated measurements of the same quantity are very close to one another they are
Vanyuwa [196]

When repeated measurements of the same quantity are very close to one another they are termed as precise measurements.

<u>Explanation: </u>

An experiment is repeated two to three times and the outcomes were checked to have similar values to attain precision of the measurements. The accuracy and precision are the important in attaining correct measurements.

The accuracy is the closest true value obtained from the measuring instrument. But to get precise results, the measurements were taken repeatedly and then analyzed whether the values obtained are similar or varying significantly.

If the repeatedly measured values are very close to one another that means the measured quantities are precisely taken. All the values are precise in nature.

Which is a cause of polarity in water molecules? partial negative charge on the hydrogen atoms partial positive charge on the ox
Tamiku [17]

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent as the hydrogen and oxygen atom has large difference in their electronegativities.

Oxygen atom is highly electronegative as compared to hydrogen atom therefore, it pulls the electrons of hydrogen atom closer towards itself.

As a result, two poles will create forming a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and partial negative charge on the oxygen atom.

Thus, we can conclude that high electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen is the cause of polarity in water molecules.

How does mg2+ block the effect of extracellular calcium on neurotransmitter release?
svetlana [45]
<span>Magnesium is a strong anode than calcium. So, Mg will be oxidized into Mg2+. So instead of having Ca being the reducing agent, Mg will takes its place. That's how the "Blocking" occur.
</span><span>Without Ca2+, no neurotransmitter was released because the exocytosis of the synaptic vesicles is dependent upon Ca2+.
</span>So, when magnesium is added to the extracellular fluid it blocks the calcium channels and inhibits the release of <span>neurotransmitter.</span>
