aye what’s the following tho
D.
Glucose is energy, which means it breaks down when energy is consumed. When a fox consumes it's pray, a seagull glides trough the air and a duck rests on a pond, not much glucose is consumed.
Energy is used when physical effort is necessary, and running from a predator, requires a lot of energy.
Hope it helped,
Happy homework/ study/ exam!
When old red blood cells rupture, the released hemoglobin is ingested by macrophages
When neurons are not producing electrical signals we say that they are at resting phase: voltage across their membrane is called the resting membrane potential, or the resting potential.
This potential is determined by the concentration of ions (Na, K) across the membrane and by membrane permeability to each type of ion. While the ions move through channels down their gradients they lead to a separation of charge and that is what creates the resting potential.
The membrane of the neuron is much more permeable for K ions so the resting potential is close to the equilibrium potential of K+.
