Answer:

Sensory neurons are found in receptors such as the eyes, ears, tongue and skin, and carry nerve impulses to the spinal cord and brain. Relay neurons are found between sensory input and motor output/response. Relay neurons are found in the brain and spinal cord and allow sensory and motor neurons to communicate.

Mama L [17]

By predicting how the sodium-potassium pump becomes integrated into outer cell membrane. The prediction that is false is the mRNA coding into sodium pump is translated into the pump on two ribosomes.

<h3>What is sodium-potassium pump?</h3>

The sodium-potassium pump is an enzyme (an electrogenic transmembrane ATPase) present in the membrane of all animal cells. It is also known as sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase, Na+/K+-ATPase, or sodium-potassium ATPase. It serves a number of purposes in cell physiology.

The enzyme Na+/K+-ATPase is activated (i.e. it uses energy from ATP). Three sodium ions are exported and two potassium ions are imported for each ATP molecule used by the pump. As a result, each pump cycle results in the net export of one positive charge.

There are four distinct sodium pump isoforms or subtypes in mammals. Each has distinct qualities and patterns of tissue expression. The P-type ATPase family includes this enzyme.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

No, it is not a scientific theory.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a proposition that is made to explain the various phenomena that are occurring in nature and it is supported by experiments that have repeatability and well-analyzed results.

Scientific theories are usually tested in experiments under controlled conditions and verified as well.

In the given situation, the theory made by the observer is not being tested through any experimentation or quantification and therefore, it is just a hypothesis and not a scientific theory.

¿Por qué las bacterias resistentes se multiplican más rápido después de que un paciente ha tomado antibióticos en comparación co

Fofino [41]

Answer: In Spanish

¿Cómo se vuelven resistentes las bacterias a los antibióticos?

R: Las bacterias pueden volverse resistentes a los antibióticos de varias maneras. Algunas bacterias pueden "neutralizar" un antibiótico cambiándolo de una manera que lo hace inofensivo. Otros han aprendido a bombear un antibiótico fuera de la bacteria antes de que pueda causar algún daño. Algunas bacterias pueden cambiar su estructura externa, por lo que el antibiótico no tiene forma de adherirse a la bacteria que está diseñada para matar.

Después de exponerse a los antibióticos, a veces una de las bacterias puede sobrevivir porque encontró una manera de resistir el antibiótico. Si incluso una bacteria se vuelve resistente a los antibióticos, puede multiplicarse y reemplazar todas las bacterias que fueron eliminadas. Eso significa que la exposición a los antibióticos proporciona una presión selectiva que hace que las bacterias sobrevivientes sean más propensas a ser resistentes. Las bacterias también pueden volverse resistentes a través de la mutación de su material genético.

Answer in English :

How do bacteria become resistant to antibiotics?

A: Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics through several ways. Some bacteria can “neutralize” an antibiotic by changing it in a way that makes it harmless. Others have learned how to pump an antibiotic back outside of the bacteria before it can do any harm. Some bacteria can change their outer structure so the antibiotic has no way to attach to the bacteria it is designed to kill.

After being exposed to antibiotics, sometimes one of the bacteria can survive because it found a way to resist the antibiotic. If even one bacterium becomes resistant to antibiotics, it can then multiply and replace all the bacteria that were killed off. That means that exposure to antibiotics provides selective pressure making the surviving bacteria more likely to be resistant. Bacteria can also become resistant through mutation of their genetic material.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

this is a TRUE statement.

Explanation:

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures, pH, and atmospheric gases because although microbes are widespread in their occurrence,they are found almost everywhere,in the air,water,soil,food,decaying matter,oil deposits,in plants etc.

but their number and their types vary according to the locality and environmental conditions.

Although, some microbes are always present and contribute towards natural flora BUT besides this others are present in specific environments such as some in hot springs bearing very HIGH TEMPERATURE RANGES for example: Thermus aquaticus.

some of them inhabit the acidic or alkaline soil feeding on HUMUS.

Most of the microbes prefer ATMOSPHERIC GASES i.e some require oxygen for their survival .For example: Pseudomonas.

some don't require O2 for survival i.e Spirochete.

IN SHORT, most of the microbes have preferences for various environmental conditions.
