This statement is true.

Reason:

Plants are capable of storing energy from the sun and with the help of that they produce their own food. And this energy is transformed to the animals as well as human being when they consume the food which was grown on the plants. But when they consume it they are only able to get 10% of the energy and the last consumers are able to get only about 1% of the energy.

Humans have fished the prawns and small fish in an estuary to near extinction. Describe the impact this could have on the bacter

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Overfishing is one of the major concern no a days in aquatic systems. overfishing is resulting in the extinction of aquatic organisms and it can lead to several damage to other living organism.

Prawns and small fishes are important organisms in food web or in aquatic system as they maintain the bacterial level or other microorganism level in control.

Prawn and small fishes utilize oxygen and nutrients present in water to survive, if they will get extinct the amount of nutrient and oxygen left will be used by the bacteria and mold living in the system which can have bad impact on human and other organism.

Heron and pelican populations depends on prawn and small fishes for survival as they feed on them and when there will be not sufficient population of prawn and small fishes, there are chances that heron and pelican populations can also get extinct.

Alex73 [517]

<h2>Sodium channels </h2>

Explanation:

Depolarization is a result of sodium channels opening as a result of chemical or pressure-based stimuli

Depolarization starts when a threshold stimulus applied on a neuron via Na+ mechanically operated channels that trigger action potential
Action potential is an efficient signaling process by which distantly located cells communicate to each other
Depolarization of membrane potential is due to influx of Na+ via voltage gated Na+ channels
Fast opening of voltage gated Na+ channel shifts membrane potential from -70mV to + 50mV at which voltage gated Na+ channels become inactive thus influx of Na+ abruptly stops
