Interneuronal communication occurs via _______________ messengers that are released from the presynaptic neuron. These are calle
d _____________ and they act by binding to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron. This binding opens ____________ channels, which can either hyperpolarize or depolarize the postsynaptic neuron membrane. This action is kept relatively short by either the decomposition or the ______________ of neurotransmitters from the synaptic cleft.
Interneuronal communication occurs via chemical messengers that are released from the presynaptic neuron. These are called neurotransmitters and they act by binding to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron. This binding opens Ion channels, which can either hyperpolarize or depolarize the postsynaptic neuron membrane. This action is kept relatively short by either the decomposition or the reuptake of neurotransmitters from the synaptic cleft.
Explanation:
Neurons are communicated to each other by a process known as synapsis. Synapsis occurs when the presynaptic neuron sends a message to the postsynaptic neuron. Vesicles from the presynaptic membranes are sent carrying the chemical messenger in their interior. This messenger is called a neurotransmitter and is released by exocytose to the synaptic space. Then the neurotransmitter goes forward to the postsynaptic membrane. When it reaches this last membrane, the neurotransmitter binds its receptor triggering an answer and opening ion channels. This binding produces depolarization of the cell called excitatory postsynaptic potential. If the signal molecule keeps being in the synaptic space, it keeps linking to its receptor and causing a postsynaptic answer. To stop this process, the neurotransmitter must be taken out from the synaptic space by enzymatic degradation/deactivation or Reuptake. There are receptors located in the presynaptic membrane that can capture de molecule to store it back in new vesicles, for posterior use.
Explanation: The thin layer that forms the outer covering of the cell is known as the cell membrane. It is composed of the lipid bilayer which as embedded proteins.
This membrane is selectively permeable which means it allows only specific molecules to pass through them.
The main function of cell membrane is to protect the cell from the outer environment and by the invasion of harmful bacteria and viruses.
Sprouting is the natural process by which seeds or spores germinate and put out shoots, and already established plants produce new leaves or buds or other newly developing parts experience further growth.
The correct answer is - a. If these two mite chromosomes have different genes at different loci.
Explanation:
If it is 2n= 2, it means that it is diploid and has two sets of chromosomes in which one set comes from mother and the other from father which means parent's genes contribute to diploid equally. Both sets of chromosomes form homologous chromosome pair. Each homolog of the pair has the same gene at the same loci in diploid and if it has not the same homologous gene at the same loci these are haploid.
