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

How do the physical characteristics of savannas lead to their dominance by grasses
____ [38]

Grasslands are describe as lands by grasses rather than extensive shrubs or trees and include the savanna and temperate grasslands.

<h3>How savannas different from grasslands?</h3>

The grass in the savanna is yellow and dried for the biggest part of the year, there's also lots of shrubs, and also small communities of trees that are on certain distance from one another.

The grass in the grasslands is green for the biggest part of the year because there's much more rain which is also better distributed throughout the year. This also allows lots of flowers and herbs to grow in the grasslands, thus making it have a nice spectrum of colors in between the greenness.

Thus,Grasslands are descibed as lands conqured by grasses rather than big shrubs .
