Answer:

repolarization  

Explanation:

Potassium channel blockers are drugs that interfere with the flow of potassium ions (K+) through potassium channels in cell membranes, thereby prolonging the duration of the action potential (repolarization phase). For example, amiodarone is a class III antiarrhythmic agent whose target is HERG human cardiac K+ channel. This drug (amiodarone) acts by prolonging the repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential.

Give two examples of organisms that may have coevolved
kondaur [170]
Two Types of Coevolution

Coevolution is common among organisms participating in a mutual interaction. In mutualism, both the organisms benefit from each other. When coevolution occurs among mutually benefiting species, it is called mutualistic coevolution.

When coevolution is found among species that have negative effects on each other, it is called competitive coevolution. There are two kinds of interactions between species that can lead to competitive coevolution:

<span><span>Predation is when one organism kills and eats another organism. The prey is the species that gets eaten by the predator, which is of course the species that eats the prey.</span><span>Parasitism is when one organism benefits by damaging, but not killing, another organism. The parasitespecies benefits from this relationship, while the host species is negatively affected.</span></span>
