Biology
1 answer:
Vlada [557]3 years ago

Answer:

  • Liver cells are abundant in SER.  
  • The testes and ovaries are tissue types whose cells are abundant in SER.
  • Cholesterol is made in the SER.
  •  Phospholipids are synthesized from cytosolic water soluble precursor molecules.  

Explanation:

This is because liver cells contain enzymes that metabolize various lipid-soluble compounds.

This is because testes and ovaries produce steroid hormones (cholesterol is the precursor for their synthesis).

ER is the organelle at which all membrane lipids are synthesized.

Phospholipids are the main lipids that are the main structural components of the cell membrane. They are synthesized on the cytosolic side of the ER membrane, from water-soluble cytosolic precursors.

Action potentials (nerve impulses) are changes in the membrane potential that, once started, will affect the entire excitable me
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The order of events would be:

4.Threshold stimulus, Na+ channels open.  This is the first event

5.Na+ influx, Depolarization. Second event

2.Na+ channels close, K+ channels open.  This is the third event

1.K+ efflux, Repolarization.  Fourth event

3.Hyperpolarization, K+ channels close

Explanation:

In resting state, the membrane is negative inside, and  K+ concentration is higher than outside.   Na+ concentration is higher outside instead.  

Sodium influx is responsible for membrane depolarization.  It's the event to produce the action potential.  When sodium channels are closing, potassium channels open and K+ go outside until repolarization occurs. But now we have both ions in different sides of the membrane, and this can't be stimulated again to produce other action potential. The membrane will remain refractory to respond to the adequate stimulus until ions migrate to their original sites.  This is Na+ outside, and K+ inside.  This is responsibility of the Na+/ K+ pump, that uses ATP to pump Na+ out, and  K+ in. Once both ions had been relocated in the membrane, this is ready to receive a correct stimulus to produce a new action potential.

Couples who cohabit are characterized by:
KIM [24]

Couples who cohabit are characterized by a lower level of commitment when compared to married couples. Cohabiting couples are two people who live together but are not married.
