Answer: The correct answer is -
b. Threshold.
Explanation:
Threshold can be described as minimum voltage of a memrane (of neuron or muscle cell) that is required to reach an excited state of cell during a depolarization) so as to produce an action potential.
Voltage-gated channels are activated at the threshold voltage, .
For example - Threshold level of neuron is - 55mV, which means it fires action potential at this level so that information is transferred to another neuron.
Answer:
Sodium chloride
Explanation:
Sodium chloride is not an organic compound (meaning it has Carbon in it) and is not produced inside the body while the other choices are organic compounds produced in the body
The answer is e. Calcitonin, Aldosterone and Atrial natriuretic peptide.
The calcitonin is a hormone secreted by the thyroid gland. Calcitonin is involved in the regulation of the levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood. Aldosterone is a hormone secreted by the adrenal gland. It is essential for maintaining the store of sodium in the kidney, salivary glands, sweat glands and colon. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) or Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a peptide hormone synthesized, and secreted by cardiac muscle cells in the heart. ANP is involved in the regulation of sodium levels in the cells of the heart.
These factors are essential for the growth and life span of the population of species in an ecosystem. The larger the space, the more light it obtains, and the more food the area produces; the larger the population of species in an ecosystem. having less space, light, and food, the results would be vice versa.
