Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

Action potential refers to the generation of electrical activity due to the influx and efflux of ions in the cell.

The cell which transmits the action potential is known as the neuron and the neuron maintains the membrane potential at -70 mv. The influx of sodium ions causes depolarization when it crosses the threshold value.  

The generated action potential now travels in the neuron through its long tubular structure called an axon.  The axon transmits the signal from the cell body towards the axon terminal and thus is known as the down the axon.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Explain the effects of osmosis on cells and tissues:
viva [34]

Answer:

In explanation.

Explanation:

Effect of osmosis on cells:

-Osmosis is the movement of water across a cell membrane. Cells use osmosis to maintain concentration equilibrium (the concentrations of solute inside and outside the cell are equal). Changing the amount of water allows the cells to achieve equilibrium.

Effects of osmosis on tissues:

-Red blood cells placed in a solution with a higher water concentration compared to their contents (eg pure water) will gain water by osmosis, swell up, and burst. Water will diffuse from a higher water concentration outside the cell to a lower water concentration inside the cell.

Hope this helps.

This is all about dominant and recessive genes. According to the picture it looks like the yellow flowers have the dominant genes YY and the green flowers the recessive yy. You breeded the YY with the yy to get Yy.  Now you have a plant with the dominant and recessive gene. The green flowers are  recessive so if you breed 'y'  with anything you get yellow flowers whether they only have the'Y' gene or the both 'Y' and 'y'.
