Fluorescent FM dyes partition reversibly into biological membranes without penetrating through them. Suppose that you have neuro

ns cultured in a dish, and you incubate them with an FM dye for a period of time before washing the cells with excess medium to remove the dye.a)You find that if you stimulate the neurons to trigger action potentials during incubation with the dye, the synaptic regions of the neurons remain fluorescent after the wash. Propose an explanation for this effect.b)After you have generated fluorescent synaptic regions by this procedure, suppose that you trigger further action potentials while continuing to wash with excess medium. Would you expect the synaptic regions to lose fluorescence

Answer:

a) Emission observed is due to emission of synaptic vessels

b) Yes

Explanation:

<u>a) Proposing an explanation</u>

The emission observed ( the synaptic regions of the neurons remaining fluorescent ) is due to the emission on the synaptic vessels given that FM dyes have lipid-sensitive emission which can be loaded into a recycled synaptic vesicle

<u>b) </u>

The synaptic regions will lose fluorescence when you continue to wash with excess medium, also the more action potentials triggered the more observed emission. hence the increase in the loss of fluorescence is due to the fact that the emissions are not permanent

The oldest rocks found on Earth are 3.96 billion years old. However, scientists believe the Earth is about 4.6 billion years old
MAVERICK [17]
As the earth has active tectonics we know that rocks are recycled and the oldest rocks may therefore just be the oldest rocks that have not been recycled yet. We know the true age of the earth by looking at radioactive isotopes of things like spacedust and meteors that formed at the same time as the earth as they have not been affected by the tectonic process of recycling here on Earth.
