hodyreva [135]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option C is false.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is the breakdown of compounds(polymers) into simpler substances(monomers) using water. Monomers on the other hand are joined together by a process called dehydration synthesis or polymerization, where the hydroxyl group of one monomer binds to the other, forming a covalent bond.

identify the subcellular structure of the neuron that forms the basis for the transmission of nerve impulses. (2 points) describ
melisa1 [442]

The subcellular structures of neuron that forms the basis for transmission of nerve impulses are the synaptic vesicles.

What are the steps in impulse transmission between neurons?

  • The action potential or nerve impulse reaches the <u>axon</u> of neuron and depolarises the membrane.
  • Voltage gated Calcium channels open .
  • Arrival of action potential causes the synaptic vesicle to attach to presynaptic membrane.
  • Calcium influx triggers release of neurotransmitter.
  • This neurotransmitters bind to postsynaptic membrane and new impulses are created.

Synaptic vesicle under resting condition:

  1. The neurotransmitter molecules are stored in synaptic vesicles.
  2. If the neurotransmitter leak from the vesicles, they are destroyed by enzymes.
  3. During resting condition, they are placed randomly.
  4. When an impulse reaches the axon, vesicles are arranged in the presynaptic membrane.

Thus from the above we can conclude that, synaptic vesicles are the subcellular structures in transmission of nerve impulses and , under resting condition they are placed randomly.

(b) What major biological concepts, in
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Biology can simply be described as the study of living organisms. Biology is divided into many sub categories depending on the features of life that we want to study. For example, molecular biology is the study of molecules which make up living organisms.

Zoology can be described as a branch of biology under which animals are studied. The field of zoology involved studying the taxonomy of animals, their evolutionary histories, physiology, embryology etc. All these studies are  parts of biology hence zoology and biology are related.

Apart from these other unifying principles shared between zoology and biology are genetics, cell biology, population biology,biochemistry etc.

Why are lipids good for making cell membrane
Rina8888 [55]

Lipids are good for making the cell membrane because they are stronger and block out things that should not be getting in out, for instance lipids mainly only let water and gases pass through.
