Which of the following characteristics are true for an action potential?

Biology
1 answer:
pickupchik [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

I, II, III

Explanation:

A threshold stimulus is a stimulus that is capable to produce a response in excitable tissues such as neurons and muscle fibers. At threshold potential, the outward movement of K+ and inward movement of Na+ become equal to each other. When the potential exceeds the threshold potential, more and more Na+ enter the cell to depolarize it and to allow the opening of Na+ channels. Therefore, to fire an action potential, the threshold must be exceeded.

Conduction of action potential is all or none phenomenon which means that either it occurs or it does not occur. As an impulse is passed by each successive part of an exon, it enters the refractory period during which there is no conduction of nerve impulse. It ensures the one-way conduction of impulse from the cell body to the axon terminal only.

Mycorrhizae, specialized symbiotic associations between the roots of plants and fungi, are characteristic of:_________
pogonyaev

Mycorrhizae, specialized symbiotic associations between the roots of plants and fungi, are characteristic of about 90% of all plants.

Mycorrhizal fungi are a symbiotic combination of fungi and plants. The term mycorrhiza refers to the role of fungi in a plant's rhizome, its root system. Mycorrhizae play an important role in plant nutrition, soil biology, and soil chemistry.

In mycorrhizal organization, the fungus resides in the root tissues of the host plant, either intracellularly as in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF or AM), or extracellularly as in extrinsic fungi.

The association is sometimes reciprocal. In some species or in specific cases, mycorrhizal fungi may have a parasitic association with the host plant.

Mycorrhizae are generally divided into ectomycorrhizae and endomycorrhizae. These two types are distinguished by the fact that mycelium of mycorrhizal fungi does not penetrate individual root cells while mycelium of endophytic fungi penetrates the cell wall and penetrates the cell membrane.
