Lithosphere made the earth outermost layer, crust and upper portion of mantle.

It is made up of tectonic plates.

Lithosphere present over the asthenosphere.

Lithosphere have low temperature as compared to asthenosphere.

It is less viscous and dense

Asthenosphere:

Asthenosphere made the middle layer of earth.

Answer:

The duration that it takes for all voltage-gated Na+ channels to return to a closed, but active (not inactivated) state after the initial rapid depolarization "spike". ( D )

Explanation:

The property of a neuron's action potential that determines the maximum firing rate is ; The duration that it takes for all voltage-gated Na+ channels to return to a closed, but active (not inactivated) state after the initial rapid depolarization "spike".

The firing rate of a neuron defines the number of spikes that a neuron can produce per second  and  for a typical neuron that number is from 1 spike to 200 spikes per second

Romashka [77]
<span>The most frequent type of ground or surface-based temperature inversion is the one produced by terrestrial radiation usually on a clear, still night. Temperature inversion refers to the increase in temperature brought about by the rise in altitude. On the other hand, terrestrial radiation refers to the radiation naturally emitted by radioactive materials present on Earth. Among these are radon, thorium, and uranium. </span>
