An action potential in one segment of axon causes adjacent sections of axon membrane to reach threshold through what mechanism?

Biology
1 answer:
Furkat [3]3 years ago
5 0
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The generation of local currents.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

An action potential at the axon hillock generates local currents that depolarize nearby sections of axon to threshold. This change in membrane potential causes voltage-gated Na+ channels to open in the adjacent axon segment. This generates/regenerates the action potential in the adjacent segment, causing the action potential to propagate away from the axon hillock.

state the name for chemicals that are secreted by glands into the blood and that affect organs elsewhere in the body​
tamaranim1 [39]

The name of chemicals that are secreted by glands into the blood and those that affect organs elsewhere in the body​ are known as Hormones.

<h3>What is Gland?</h3>

A Gland may be defined as an organ in the human or animal body that perspires certain chemical substances for usefulness in the body or for liberation into the surroundings.

The endocrine glands are responsible for the synthesis of such chemical substances into specific body parts and organs and pass them directly into the bloodstream. These chemical messengers are thought to be the agents of communication between one body part and another.

Therefore, it is well described above.
