Stimulus stimulate the sodium ion voltage gated channel to open in the axon. This allow many Na ion to enter the axon and causes depolarisation as the pd in the axon getting less negative charge (from -70mV to -50mV).
Answer:
Glycogen synthase is phosphorylated at only one site.
Explanation:
Glycogen synthase has multiple sites where phosphorylation can occur. Glycogen synthase may have 9 or more sites where it can be phosphorylated as a result of which it's activity is down regulated. It simply means that the regulation of this enzyme does not occur through binary on/off switching, in fact it's activity is modulated over a wide range in response to various signals.
In contrast to glycogen phosphorylase which gets activated when it is phosphorylated at it's serine residues, glycogen synthase gets inactivated by phosphorylation.
As soon as another enzyme GSK3β phosphorylates glycogen synthase, it gets inactivated as a result of which glycogen synthesis halts in the liver.
Answer:
The correct answer is: Clostridium Tetani.
Explanation:
Clostridium tetani is a Gram-positive bacteria found in soil.
<u>C. tetani may grow and generate </u><u>tetanospasmin</u><u>, a powerful toxin that interferes with </u><u>motor neurons</u><u>, producing </u><u>tetanus</u><u>, if introduced into a </u><u>wound</u>.
Tetanospasmin travels throughout the body via the lymphatic and bloodstream, where it is taken up by different sections of the nervous system. Tetanospasmin inhibits the release of the inhibitory neurotransmitters glycine and gamma-aminobutyric acid at motor nerve terminals in the nervous system. <u>This blockage causes </u><u>extensive motor neuron activation and muscular spasming</u>. These muscle spasms usually start at the top of the body and work their way down, starting about 8 days after infection with lockjaw and progressing to spasms of the stomach muscles and extremities. The muscle spasms last several weeks.
Tetanus toxoid vaccinations, which are often given to children around the world, can inhibit the toxin's activity.
Carbon dioxide.
a gas produced by animals during respiration that plants use to make food, water, and oxygen.
hope this helps :)
