The movement of ions through their channels require a discharge of the capacitance.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The answer to the question: The movement of ions through their channels require a discharge of the capacitance, is, true.

Explanation:

In order for cells, muscular and neuronal, to perform their activities, they need to generate action potentials, that will permit these activities. In order for an action potential to happen, a cell´s membrance must be charged, or rather, its polarity must be changed, so that the cell can be charged and then fire. Usually, cells remain in a resting membrane state, in which, the extracellular matrix remains positive, while the intracellular space remains positive, due to ion, and anion presence in either. In order for the action potential to happen, these polarities are reversed through a series of steps in which ions, particularly potassium and sodium, sometimes calcium, will enter and exit the cell´s membrane to change this polarity. But in order for this process to take place, first a current, or stimulation, must motivate the cell to start the process. The capacitance is the capability of a cell to be ready to be activated or de-activated when stimulated, meaning, to be charged and discharged, when necessary. In order for this capacitance to permit the process of action potential formation, it needs to be discharged first, and this is done through the stimulus, which orders the cell´s membrane to initiate depolarization by opening up the ion channels. This is why the answer is true.

Bodybuilders that take anabolic steroids such as androstenedione and testosterone often suffer from gynecomasty (enlarged breast

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Gynaecomastia occurs due to

1) Feedback inhibition of pituitary.

2) Conversion of exogenous androgens into estrogen (aromatization)

Substrate : Androgen

Product : Estradiol ( estrogen )

Enzyme involved : Aromatase

Explanation:

Gynaecomastia is a condition in which the mammary

glands, or breasts, enlarge and become sore and

tender to touch. It is due to the chemical change

in testosterone brought about by a process called

aromatisation, when the male hormone is converted

to a form of estrogen, the female sex hormone.

There is initially a sore feeling in the breast. A

skin ridge appears on the outer side of the areola

together with a halo appearance around the area

but no swelling. As the course continues, a swelling

develops and it becomes tender. Fatty tissue

builds up around the area and the breast becomes

prominent. At times there may be a secretion of

fluid from the nipple when it is squeezed. Steroids

should be stopped. If recovery does not occur by

the end of 2 months, surgery should be considered.

Other causes of gynaecomastia that may need to

be considered are the use of medications such as

Tagamet, a treatment for gastric problems, HCG and

spironolactone. Some body builders use this latter

drug to reduce body fluid. Occasionally boys in the

post-pubertal phase develop breast enlargement due

to endocrine imbalance totally unrelated to steroids.

Gynaecomastia also occurs as a result of feedback inhibition of the pituitary.

Giving 400 IU vitamin D per day to infants.<br> a. Not recommended<br> b. Recommended.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Giving 400 IU vitamin D per day to infants is recommended.

Explanation:

To avoid developing a vitamin D deficiency, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfed and partially breastfed infants be supplemented with 400 IU per day of vitamin D beginning in the first few days of life.The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that all babies receive routine vitamin D supplementation (400 IU per day) due to decreased sunlight exposure and an increase in rickets. The babies who do need these supplements need them due to a lack of sufficient sunlight. Baby has very little exposure to sunlight.
