<u>Answer</u>: B.  narwhal

The narwhal is the whale species that has a long external tusk protruding from a canine tooth. However, the function of this strange structure has remain a mystery for a long time, recent drone footage may have found the answer.  

Although it is believed that this 3 meter tooth may play an important role in mating, another function for it may be in hunting fish. In the footage, the individual uses it to hit the fish and thus stun it.

Furthermore, another function may also be echolocation, through which marine species, especially dolphins, use sound waves to "see" underwater.

1. What causes the autorhythmicity or action potentials of the nodal cells? a. A decrease in chloride permeability b. A gradual
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

The rhythm of the heartbeat is controlled by the pacemaker of the heart called the sino-atrial node.

The SA node generates action potentials which trigger the contraction and relaxation of the atrium and ventricles. The membrane potential generation initiates by the depolarization of the cell membrane when the L type of Ca⁺² ions opens up and calcium ions enter the cell.

This depolarizes the cell until the potential threshold is reached which lies between the -40 and -30 mV.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
