Answer:

The rift valley formed when the crust pulled apart.

Explanation:

The Great Rift Valley in Africa formed when the crust pulled apart along a divergent margin.

  • Rift valley systems are produced within a continent at divergent margins within a plate.
  • The rifting system makes the earth in that region prone to frequent earthquakes as the continents continues pulling apart.
  • It results from the divergence of the Arabian plate and the Somalia/Nubian plate.
  • It is one of the longest rift valley systems on earth.

How much faster does sound travel in the ocean than in the rain forest?
Greeley [361]
Hi there,
Speed of sound in water is approximately 1500 meters per second (the exact speed depends on the depth of water and its density) and the speed of sound in air is approximately 340 meters per second. So sound is almost 4.4 times faster in water than in air. I hope this helped :)

_The endplate potential (EPP) at the frog neuromuscular junction occurs because ACh simultaneously increases the conductance of
Hoochie [10]

Complete question:

The endplate potential (EPP) at the frog neuromuscular junction occurs because ACh simultaneously increases the conductance of the postsynaptic membrane to Na and K

  • True
  • False

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

The Acetylcholine neurotransmitter is released from the presynaptic cell by the process of exocytosis.

Once the molecule is in the intercellular space, it moves forward the postsynaptic membrane to join its receptor in the motor plate.

Once the joining has occurred, the receptor acquires a channel shape allowing the ion transference that will make possible the modification of the action potential. Ions traffic will consist of the pass of sodium and calcium to the interior of the cell and potassium to the exterior. Quantitatively, the interchange Na-K is the most significant.

K+ follows a concentration gradient, while Na+ follows an electrochemical gradient. The interchange results in an increase of positive charges in the interior of the muscular cell.

Whenever there is a sufficient number of Acetylcholine receptors are active, the depolarization threshold of the motor endplate is exceeded. This activates an action potential that extends to the rest of the muscle membrane.
