B. 1/4

Heterozygous organisms show presence of two alternatives alleles for same trait. For plant height, a heterozygous tall plant, will show both the T (for tallness) and t (for shortness) alleles, as T allele is dominant over t allele. When a cross is made between heterozygous tall plants (Tt), there are 50% chances that a randomly selected allele will carry allele for shortness (t) as shown below:
Thus, "the probability that a randomly selected gamete will carry 't' allele in a cross between heterozygous tall pea plants, is 1/2."

Following repolarization, the neuron may become slightly hyperpolarized before it re-establishes its resting membrane potential.
RoseWind [281]
<h2>Membrane potential </h2>

Explanation:

  • Membrane potential represents charge difference across the membrane, all biological cells are negative inside (cytoplasm) and positive outside (due to difference in ionic distribution)  
  • In a typical neuron cell membrane potential of cytoplasm is negative at rest (when no stimulus is applied) hence called resting membrane potential
  • Resting membrane potential of excitable cells is established by Na+ and K+pump
  • Repolarization starts with the efflux of K+ by the opening of voltage gated K+ channels
  • Voltage gated K+ channels starts to open when voltage gated Na+ channels becomes inactive
  • Hyperpolarization occurs due to excessive efflux of K+ by voltage gated K+ channels
  • Additional efflux of K+ occurs due to slow inactivation of voltage gated K+ channels

Homeostasis is the process by which organisms undergo to maintain a constant internal environment for internal processes to occur. Hence, the answer would be that which acts to counter any external stimuli which causes change in the body's environment, not simply factors involved in the survival of the species such as feeding and camouflaging.
