Answer: German scientist Alfred Wegener
Explanation: <em>In the early 1900s, the German scientist Alfred Wegener noticed that the coastlines of Africa and South America looked like they might fit together. He also discovered evidence that the same plant and animal fossils were found along the coasts of these continents, although they were now separated by vast oceans.</em>
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the term SENSORY. <span>The afferent division of the nervous system is also known as the sensory division. When we say afferent, this is when the stimuli or the signal comes from the outside and then this is processed going to the brain. Afferent means UP. Hope this answer helps.</span>
Answer:
b) opening calcium pores in the membrane
Explanation:
The opening of calcium ions channels facilitates the migration of vesicles containing neurotransmitters in the pre-synaptic neurons to the tip of the post-synaptic membrane. at the <u>neuromuscular junction </u>These neurotransmitters can either be <u>cholinergic or non-chorlinergic.</u> <u>At the tip of the pre-synaptic membranes the vesicles empty their neurotransmitter contents into the synapse.</u>
The neurotransmitters, diffuse through the neuromuscular junction to bind with the receptors on the <u>post-synaptic membrane on the post-synaptic neuron.</u> This stimulates opening of<u> ligand gated sodium ions,</u> and sodium ions diffuse into the post-synaptic neuronal membrane, to cause <u>depolarization</u>. if the stimulus is up to the threshold levels it generate action potential.
Therefore , more calcium ions channels opening produces; more diffusion of neurotransmitters;leading to opening of more sodium channels for depolarization; and IPSP or EPSP generation.
Living things are made of types of molecules, known as macromolecules.
There are four major classes of biological macromolecules:
carbohydrates
lipids
proteins
nucleic acids
Each of these types of macromolecules performs a wide array of important functions within the cell; a cell cannot perform its role within the body without many different types of these crucial molecules. In combination, these biological macromolecules make up the majority of a cell’s dry mass. (Water molecules make up the majority of a cell’s total mass.) All the molecules both inside and outside of cells are situated in a water-based (i.e., aqueous) environment, and all the reactions of biological systems are occurring in that same environment.
