- The balance between the chemical and electrical forces pushing potassium through potassium channels and across the membrane is represented by the potassium equilibrium potential.
- At the equilibrium potential of potassium, which is -80mV, there is no net movement of potassium ions.
<h3>At potassium's equilibrium potential, what happens?</h3>
- At equilibrium, the electrical potential gradient across the membrane precisely balances the gradient of K+ concentration.
- There is no net migration of K+ from one side to the other, despite the fact that K+ ions continue to traverse the membrane via channels.
<h3>How does potassium diffuse in order to influence the membrane potential?</h3>
- Potassium ions will flow down their concentration gradient, or towards the exterior of the cell, because the membrane is permeable to them.
- Although the membrane is not permeable to sodium, there is a concentration gradient that favors sodium diffusion in the opposite direction.

There are about 950,000 species of insects known but estimates range as high as 2-10 million which means that there are probably many species not yet known which have probably gone undetected so far in perhaps more remote parts of the world.
Answer:
Alaska
Explanation:
Alaska has the most active volcanos in America.
The oldest oceanic crust is found at the mid-ocean ridges. Thus, option "A" is correct.
<h3>How old is the youngest oceanic crust?</h3>
The ocean crust is about younger than 200 million years (for example, smaller than 5% of the age of the earth).
The crust is most naive (still being created by volcanic eruptions) along the axis of the mid-ocean ridges and increases in age down the sides of the mid-ocean rises and out onto the more serious basin floors.
Thus, option "A" is correct.

It cannot survive because an earth worm will not become 2 new worm. The head of the worm may survive and regenerate a tail. But if original tail of the worm may not survive because it will not be able to grow a new head or the rest of its vital organs and it will die. I hope this helps. :)
