Which of the following characteristics are true for an action potential?
pickupchik [31]

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.

ELEN [110]

I hope you meant, a cross between BbPp and BbPp, else for bbpp x bbpp, all the progeny will be bbpp.

We need to work out a Punnett square to determine the genotypes resulting from the cross between BbPp and BbPp. The dyhybrid cross results in 16 different genotypes, of which a few have the same phenotypes.

It can be seen that there are 4 different kinds of phenotypes present, in the ratio 9:3:3:1.

Explain why a person making an emergency call should never be placed on hold
Ad libitum [116K]
Its important not to put a person making an emergency call on hold because since it might be a patient who is a serious case and might lose consciousness. It is therefore always important to obtain the name, phone number, and location at the start of the call so that the patient can be found if they lose consciousness or is disconnected. Additionally its is important to make sure one stays connected with the patient until help arrives to ensure their safety.
