What is the correct term for anthropology’s commitment to studying the entire picture of human life, including culture, biology,
jekas [21]

Holism.

Explanation:

Anthropology is the branch of scientific studies that deals with study of human development in terms of body structure, culture,social behavior and language.

Biological anthropology deals with the evolution of man on the basis of biological structures.

Cultural anthropology deals with the evolution of different culture and society.

Social anthropology deals with the evolution of various societies from the time when man was totally uncivilized.

Linguistic anthropology  deals with the study of evolution of languages.

In short anthropology deals with all the aspects of human beings. This commitment of anthropology to studying the entire picture of human life,including culture,biology,history and language is termed as Holism.

Once a neuron is stimulated and the membrane potential is depolarized, the depolarized axonal membrane is helped to return to it
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cell membrane separates the cell from the outer environment. The extracellular fluid contains the sodium ions (Na+), chloride ions (Cl-), while intracellular fluid contains potassium (K +) and negative anions.

The potential difference arises when the membrane is selectively permeable to some ions. The resting potential is -70mV.  

When the neurons get excited, the sodium ions start to enter by sodium channels.  

Now there are more positive ions inside the cell membrane. It disturbs the resting potential i.e. -70mV. This stage is known as depolarization.

When the inside environment of the cell is more positively charged, the potassium ions start to move out of the cell. It goes out by the voltage-gated channels. Thus resting stage is maintained and it is known as repolarization.

But the initial stability of the cell membrane has to be maintained. To restore the resting stage, the sodium ions start to move out of the membrane and potassium ions enter into the cells again. This is an active transport and has done by the Na+ - K+ pump. Here 3 sodium ions move out and 2  potassium ions pumped into the cell through the plasma membrane.  

Thus the resting potential regains. The potassium ions come back into the cells against the concentration gradient and ATP provides the energy for this phenomena.

During the absorptive state, metabolism adjusts to either provide energy for immediate use or store excess energy to be used lat
Effectus [21]

Answer:

A. Catabolic

B.Anabolic.

C. Anabolic

D. Catabolic.

E.Anabolic

F. Catabolic

G. Anabolic

H. Catabolic

Explanation:

Catabolic process is a metabolic processes that breakdown complex or larger molecules into smaller sizes by releasing energy.

The examples of such metabolic processes are;

Glucose is used as the primary fuel for energy

Dietary carbohydrate from a meal is digested and absorbed as monosaccharides, mainly glucose

Dietary protein from a meal is digested and absorbed as single amino acids.

Fatty acids are used as fuel sources for some tissues.

All this processes are catabolic processes because large molecules are broken to smaller ones and all this processes release energy.

Anabolic process is a metabolic process where smaller molecular are build up to form larger molecules and this requires the input of energy.

Examples are;

Glucose is used as the primary fuel for energy

Excess glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscle.

Excess glucose is converted to fatty acids and stored as part of the triglyceride molecule in adipose tissue

Excess tatty acids combine with glycerol to form which are stored in adipose tissues.

All these processes requires the build up of smaller molecules to larger molecules and requires input of energy.
