Answer:

Opening of sodium channels

Explanation:

Sodium channels play important roles in transmission of nerve impulse as well in the releasing of neurotransmitter (Acetylcholine). Both of these are dependent on sodium channels. As for the transmission of impulse the first step is depolarization of nerve cells and for depolarization the opening of sodium channels is necessary.

So the neurotransmitter released from on neuron and binds to receptors on other neuron causes the opening of sodium channels. These channels cause the influx of sodium into the neuron and alternatively cause the depolarization by making the inside of cell less negative. During this process a minor amount of potassium also move out of the membrane.

Water leaves the internal cavity of a sponge through the

Trava [24]

If I'm not mistaken, it leaves through the osculum which is a cavity located on the upper part of a sponge.

Sponges feed through a process called filtration, which means that they filter the water in search of nutrients. And after they collect everything they need from the water, they need to let it out somehow; through the osculum.

Hope it helped,
