Answer:

-all species change gradually over time.

Explanation:

Mutation often results from cell replication and division. These occur as small, random, errors within the genetic code that become more common or stable within a population over time as traits.

As organisms live within varying niches, environmental changes may render some genetic traits obsolete. However, others may become more beneficial as an adaptation. These adaptations, which make an organism and its offspring suited to a niche, and more likely to survive and reproduce become inherited- this process is called evolution.

Agents that paralyze skeletal muscle by simple competitive inhibition of acetylcholine at muscle receptor sites are called?
Fed [463]

Agents that paralyze skeletal muscle by simple competitive inhibition of acetylcholine at muscle receptor sites are called?

a. nondepolarizing

b. depolarizing

c. antagonizing

d. repolarizing

Answer:

a. nondepolarizing

Explanation:

As the nerve impulse arrives, the synaptic end bulbs of the motor neurons release acetylcholine in the synapse. Acetylcholine binds to its receptors present at the motor endplate. This results in the opening of an ion channel in the ACh receptor to allow the movement of the Na+ into the cell. This makes the inside of the muscle fiber more positively charged, that is, depolarized.

Depolarization triggers a muscle action potential. Drugs or chemicals that paralyze skeletal muscle by competitive inhibition of acetylcholine at muscle receptor sites are called non-depolarizing as they do not allow the acetylcholine to facilitate the depolarization of the muscle fiber.

What happens when living things get in the dirt?
nignag [31]
Human exploitation of fragile ecosystems can lead to the droughts and arid conditions characteristic of desertification. Effects include land degradation, soil erosion and sterility, and a loss of biodiversity, with huge economic costs for nations where deserts are growing.

How does the human brain store and retrieve memories?
krek1111 [17]

Answer: After consolidation, long-term memories are stored throughout the brain as groups of neurons that are primed to fire together in the same pattern that created the original experience, and each component of a memory is stored in the brain area that initiated it (e.g. groups of neurons in the visual cortex store a sight, neurons in the amygdala store the associated emotion, etc).

In mitosis, when do the sister chromatids align with centrosomes in the cells?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The answer is probably B. Metaphase

Explanation:

In mitosis, the sister chromatids align in the "center" of the cell as the centrosomes are at the poles of the cell. They do this, moving on to the next phase Anaphase - where they will eventually split. Interphase isn't part of mitosis - it describes the period in which the cell is just growing and copying DNA.  If you textbook says it is, then thats ok, sometimes its included as part of it (even though technically its not).
