In terms of generating a depolarizing or hyperpolarizing graded potential on a postsynaptic cell, what do you think will be the

most important factor?

Answer:

The type of ion channel opened will be the most important factor.

Explanation:

At certain occasions a given neurotransmitter can combine with a K+ chemically gated channel and at certain occasions the same neurotransmitter can combine with a Na+ chemically gated channel. Thus, the same neurotransmitter can produce depolarization if it opens the Na+ channel and a hyper-polarization if it opens the K+ channel.  

In these situations, the structural make-up and sensitivity of the postsynaptic cell really determines if the neurotransmitter will inhibit (depolarize) or excite (depolarize) the postsynaptic cell. It is more essential to know the kind of channel, which opens than the particular identity of the neurotransmitter.

Which of Thomas hunt morgans hypotheses was valid
Simora [160]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

white eyes are homozygous recessive

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Thomas Hunt Morgan work with the fruit fly showed that genes are linked in a series on chromosomes and are responsible for identifiable, hereditary traits. </u></em>He was the first to identify that genes are linked to the same chromosome.
  • <em><u>According to his hypothesis he stated that genes that are linked are arranged linearly on a chromosome, while those genes with low combination frequencies must be closer together and thus difficult to separate</u></em>.
  • When a gene contains two similar alleles that is, either two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles then it is called homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive respectively. White eyes of a fruit fly is an example of homozygous recessive

Which muscles do you control when exercising? cardiac muscles skeletal muscles involuntary muscles smooth muscles?
Mashutka [201]

While doing exercise, one can control skeletal muscles only.

The body has three kinds of muscles, that is, skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. The skeletal muscles are linked with the bones of the skeleton, that is why these are under control and are known as voluntary muscles.

On the other hand, the smooth muscles like skeletal muscle can never be under control. These muscles helps in pushing substances, like blood or food through organs. The cardiac muscle is also an involuntary muscle, which is found only in the heart. These muscles helps in contraction of the heart and can never be controlled.

What is the chemical reaction used to study enzyme activity in the lab (lactase breaking down lactose into its monomers). Know t
Bas_tet [7]

Answer: The chemical reaction in this example is Called hydrolysis in the presence of Lactase

Here is a word equation for the hydrolysis of lactose:

lactose + water → galactose + glucose

Explanation: The equation is called <hydro> + <lysis) of these terms refer to water and splitting respectively. So hydrolysis means splitting with water. Enzymes pull out a monomer by examining where the monomers are connected, and placing a water molecule in between them, resulting in the breakage of the bond between the monomers. Here are two picture to represent it.
