The reduced potential causes hundreds of <u>voltage-gated sodium</u> channels to open on that part of the cell membrane. The depolarization of the cell causes more of <u>voltage-gated sodium </u>channels to open in adjacent parts of the cell membrane. This begins the wave of of <u>depolarization</u> moving down the axon. Depolarization begins at the <u>axon hillock.</u>
Explanation:
When there is no neuron signaling it becomes polarized, termed as resting membrane potential (RMP) at a threshold voltage (around -55 mV), due to the action of the sodium-potassium pump and the potassium leak channels.
When a change in the RMP occurs, depolarization takes place which causes the voltage-gated sodium channels to open and sodium ions rush into the nerve cell which in turn will increase the voltage threshold to nearly around +40 mV and also charges the neuron positive. This depolarization moves down the axon. This increase in threshold stops the sodium influx and opens the potassium channels to rush the potassium out of the cell.
All these actions decrease the membrane potential leading to a wave of depolarization and going back to resting state. Depolarization begins depending upon the potential gradient at the axon hillock.
Answer:
Antidiuretic hormone
Explanation:
Antidiuretic hormone that is synthesized and produced in the brain by the hypothalamus, is secreted from the pituitary gland, where it is stored. This hormone is released into the blood stream in response to changes in the water balance in the blood. This hormone helps the kidneys to control and regulate the amount of water in the blood
Organisms that use the same resources because there may not be enough for all, so it then becomes a competition of who gets it and who doesn't.

Androgen hormone is the primary determinant of whether a baby will develop male or female external genitalia.
Androgen is usually a steroid hormone. The predominant and most active androgen in testosterone, which is produced by the male testes. Some androgens are naturally produced in the body and if the body doesn't make them properly they can be obtained through prescription medication.
