Answer:

<u><em>Starfish</em></u> reproduce every winter by ejecting there eggs into the water, since they only live on average 35 years they reproduce about 35 times in their lifetime. Only a couple of the eggs will fertilize and turn into a Starfish.

<u><em>Hippos</em></u> are the only mammals in Africa that reproduce in water, Hippos reproduce in May and through June. Hippos usually live to around 40 to 50 years, and most hippos through May and June reproduce more than one time.

How does a presynaptic neuron know just how much of a certain neurotransmitter (NT) it has released into the synapse?
Llana [10]

Answer:

A presynaptic neuron knows when and how much of a certain neurotransmitter it has to release into the synapse by the frequency of the action potential.

Explanation:

Two nuerons connect to each other through synapse. When an action potential, or nerve impulse, arrives at the axon terminal, it activates voltage-gated calcium channels in the cell membrane, then the calcium which is present in hi highconcentration outside the neuron than inside, rushes into the cell. The Calcium then allows synaptic vesicles to fuse with the axon terminal membrane, releasing neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft.

The nuerotransmitter than binds to the receptors at the post-synaptic cleft and causes the opening or closing of the channels, hence, depolarizing or hyperpolarizing the cells.This can produce a change in the membrane potential—voltage across the membrane of the receiving cell.

In which type of front is the flow of air on both sides of the front almost parallel to the line of the front?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: the answer is B which is stationary

Explanation:

This type of front behaves like a warm front only that it is quiescent because the front barely shifts its position. The weather may also be similar to that of a warm front. The two abutting air masses run almost parallel to the front because none is stronger than the other to cause displacement.

Answer:

Fever.

Explanation:

If gram-negative bacteria contain a small amount of Endotoxin in the circulatory system can cause different types of infections such as inflammation, bleeding, hypertension, clotting, and fever.

Endotoxin is known as glycolipids, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) the most potent toxic molecule which is capable of causing lethal shock. It is present in the bacterial cell wall.
