1.Blood is the liquid tissue that carries oxygen and nutrients round the living systems, passing through veins and arteries. It also carry carbon dioxide out of the living system towards the lungs for exhaling out. A normal blood sample should have the following components: PLASMA, RED BLOOD CELLS, WHITE BLOOD CELLS AND PLATELETS.
2. The plasma is the liquid components of the blood and is composed of water, ions, proteins, nutrients, dissolved gases, fat, hormones, wastes, etc. The plasma function as a transport medium to deliver nutrients, hormones, ions, oxygen, etc to all the cells in the body in order to maintain homeostatic balance. The red blood cell is responsible for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide. The white blood cell are part of the immune system and fight against infections. The platelets are the part of the blood that are responsible for blood clotting when one sustain injury.

<span>The main components of blood sample are red blood cells, platelets, white blood cells and platelets. Red Blood Cells: These cells help the body by carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide to all the organs. White Blood Cells: They help with the immunity of the body and help immune system fight with the antibodies that cause any infections and diseases to the body. Platelets: It helps in clotting the blood which in turn helps in loss of blood at the time of injuries. Plasma: Plasma is mainly water with elements needed for the body like nutrients and proteins.</span>

What are the charges both inside and outside of the neuron before you click the stimulate neuron button?
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The charges inside and outside of the neuron before receiving a stimulus are negative and positive, respectively, which corresponds to the transmembrane rest potential.

Explanation:

Neuron is the specialized cell of the nervous system in charge of transmitting electrical impulses. The generation of a nerve impulse in the form of an electric current is due to a change in the transmembrane potential.

<u>Outside the neuron cell, electrical charges are predominantly positive, and the ion with the highest concentration is sodium. In the intracellular space, a great quantity of proteins provide negative charge, and there is a predominance of potassium ions</u>. Under these conditions, the ionic channels are closed.

For this reason, a neuron at rest, before receiving a stimulus, presents positive charges on the outside and negative charges on the inside, and the membrane potential in this condition is estimated at a value of -65 mV.

Once a stimulus is produced, the ionic channels open and Na+ ions enter the cytoplasm, exchanging them for K+, which implies a change in the membrane potential which, on reaching the threshold, produces an action potential and the nerve impulse is produced.

Which question is a nonscientific question?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer: What roses are the best flowers is a non-scientific question.

Explanation: What flower is better is determined by personal opinion. I might think the red roses are prettier and you might think the white ones are. Where all the other questions can be tested all equally and it is not an opinion.
