Answer: depolarization; hyperpolarization
Explanation:
At resting potential (absence of stimulus), the cell membrane of a neuron is said to be polarized with a net negative charge within due to more potassium (K+) ions present than sodium (Na+) ions.
However, an impressed stimuli reverses the ions content as K+ ions flows out and quickly replaced by Na+ ions, resulting in a decrease in membrane potential and a more positive cell membrane. Thus, depolarization occurs.
An increase in the membrane potential (so that it becomes more negative) is called hyperpolarization.
Answer:
periosteum ----> dense irregular connective tissue
Explanation:
- The periosteum is a dense fibrous membrane that covers the surfaces of bones.
The periosteum consists of two layers-
1. Outer fibrous layer
2. Inner cellular layer
- It is mainly composed of dense irregular connective tissue along with a layer of simple squamous epithelium.
- The function of periosteum is to cover the surface of all the bones except those surfaces that are covered with cartilage such as joints and tendons and ligaments.
I would say true. I say this because there have been times where scientists find out that there are better ways of performing experiments, or found that certain materials work better for certain tasks. (Especially true in medicinal fields!)
B. Deposition
Deposition is the dropping of sediment by wind, water, ice, or gravity.
