Explanation:

Electrical energy - The communication of neurons with each other takes place at synapses. Synapses are of two types i.e. chemical and electrical. A signal transduction process by a neuron uses electrical energy.  In electrical synapse, flow of ions between cells takes place.    

Gravitational potential energy  - It is the energy possessed by an object when it is placed at some height. It is given by :

PE = mgh

The energy used when "a ball is at the top of a hill" is gravitational potential energy.

Mechanical energy - It is the total energy i.e. it is the combination of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.

The flexing of an arm muscle  is an example of mechanical energy.

The traits for blood type and Rh are the result of the presence or absence of particular on the erythrocytes.g
just olya [345]

Answer: Antigens

Explanation: The ABO system of blood grouping is based on the basis of the type of antigens that are present in the red blood cells. Erythrocytes is another name for the red blood cells. Antigens are molecules that are capable of eliciting immune response. There are two types of antigens: antigen A and B. Blood type A has only antigen A, blood type B has only antigen B, blood type AB has both antigen A and B while blood type O has no antigen (neither A nor B antigen).

Similarly, Rh trait is determined by the presence or absence of rhesus antigen in the erythrocytes. Rhesus antigen is an antigen first discovered in rhesus monkey. Rh+ indicates the presence of rhesus antigen in the red blood cells while Rh- indicates the absence of rhesus antigen in the red blood cells.

suppose a persons stomach wall was irritated by an over-secretion of stomach acid. why do you think a person would take milk of
il63 [147K]

The pH of stomach secretion is low. This means it is acidic. Too much production can corrode the stomach wall. Therefore in such a situation drinking a basic solution with a higher pH neutralizes some of the stomach acidic secretions hence relieving the effect;

Acid + Base - Salt + Water
