Answer:
B. 26amu
Explanation:
The nucleus of an atom in an element contains protons, electrons and neutrons. The proton number equals the electron number in a neutral atom. The proton number is also called the atomic number, denoted by Z.
The mass number also called Atomic mass unit (amu) in this case, of an element is the sum of the proton number and the neutron number in the atom of that element. The mass number is denoted by A.
Hence, A = Z + N
Where A = Mass number
Z = Proton (atomic number)
N = Neutron number
In this question, N is 11 while Z is 15
Hence, the mass number of the element in the question, in AMU, is 15 + 11 = 26amu.
Answer:
The correct answer is option B ( ligand gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules).
Explanation:
Input region or postsynaptic region or dendrite is the site of neuron cell which receives the impulse from the pre-synaptic neuron at the synaptic junction.
The cell membrane of the dendrite is embedded with ligand-gated channels which opens up in response to the ligand (neurotransmitters) produced by the neurotransmitter vesicle of axon or output region of neuron.
The neuromuscular junction is such a case where acetylcholine receptors present in the dendrite opens in the presence of acetylcholine.
Thus, option B ( ligand-gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules) is the correct option.
A large asteroid or comet impacted the earth.
