Answer:
The correct answer is - the large cross-sectional area and greater length of the cytoplasmic core get less resistance than the smaller cross-sectional area.
Explanation:
The greater length and the large cross-sectional area of the cytoplasmic path or core get less resistance than the resistance of the current path which is the small cross-sectional area of axoplasm. This leads it to greater resistance than the resistance of the current path through the extracellular fluid.
Other than this there is also an unequal distribution of the ions that leads to the increase in potential difference as higher Na+ ions present in cytoplasm and high amount of K+ ion present in axoplasm.
Controlled population growth.
Explanation:
US is a highly developed country and it has expansive infrastructure and highly mechanized agricultural equipments. So first option is not a choice. Second, access to chemical fertilizers and pesticides in a country with such advanced agriculture infrastructure is very easy. Third US is well known for using GM crops.
US does not have a controlled population growth because if not the birth rate then migration of people to US is a major concern for that country. Thus, this will be a correct choice for the given question.
Cholesterol Molecules acts as a "super glue" between the lipids in the cell membrane, whilst allowing it to remain flexible.
Answer: By definition, if the atomic number =
7
, then there are 7 protons, 7 electrons, and 8 neutrons!
Explanation:
The atomic number is by definition the number of protons, positively charged particles, contained within the atomic nucleus. So if there are 7 protons, there MUST be 7 electrons, 7 negatively charged particles. Why? Because matter is electrically neutral, and positive and negative particles must be equal.
Electrons have negligible mass; the mass number depends on the number of protons contained within the nucleus, PLUS the number of neutrons. Given that we have 15 N
, there must be 8 neutrons contained within the nucleus. does this help?
