Answer:

Has a faster response, but the signal does not last as long.

Explanation:

The nervous system uses action potentials to transmit signals. Action potentials have a short duration and travel fast through neurons to inform in a fast way about different stimuli and allow rapid answers. On the other hand, the endocrine system uses chemical molecules to transmit their signals. As they travel through blood or together with other molecules, their signal is not transmitted as fast as in the nervous system. However, when they reach their destination and interact with the proper molecules, they start a series of changes that have a lasting effect in contrast with the nervous system.

Describe two life zones in the ocean and how organisms are affected by the conditions in each zone.
Dmitriy789 [7]
There are two main life zones in the ocean. The first one is the coastal zone - the zone near the coast. In this zone, tides expose some part of the see bottom for some part of each day, so some of the organisms in this part can live both under the water and dried out for hours. Also, this part of ocean characterize higher temperature and higher amount of nutrient-rich matter that supports life. Therefore the 90% of all sea lives in the coastal zone. The second zone is the open sea which include the rest of the ocean away from the land. It can be divided in two parts: neretic zone, in which sunlight penetrates the whole water column and oceanic zone, which is characterized by darkness and very high pressure.

Amino acids and carbohdrates are absorbed in teh small intestine. True or False
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Carbohydrates products primarily glucose, galactose and fructose are absorbed in the small intestine. The apical membrane with in the small intestine absorbs Glucose and galactose while fructose is absorbed through facilitated diffusion via GLUT5  

However, amino acids are absorbed by Sodium cotransporter. Sodium cotransporter is found in the intestinal mucosa of small intestine and then transported via facilitated diffusion across the basolateral membrane

Hence, the given statement is true

During the course of an action potential, the membrane potential rapidly rises and reaches a peak of about 40 mV before falling
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

This is because the voltage gated sodium channels which opens for the influx of sodium ions, which caused  increased postivity of the axoplasm closed, with simultaneous opening  of potassium channels.

Therefore depolarization stopped, thus  propagation  and transmission of action potential (caused by depolarization) which cause the reversal of charges in the membrane (making the axoplasm  more negative) for the voltage rise to 40mV also stopped.

In addition the  simultaneous opening  of voltage gated potassium channels caused K+ to leave the axoplasm to the external environments. This makes the inner membrane to be negative further lowering the potential, to -75mv. This is  re-polarization.
