Svetach [21]

Answer:

B. The city park contains fewer natural predators of the red squirrel than the nature reserve.

Explanation:

When compared to a nature reserve a city park really doesn't have any predators apart from some cats or birds. There really isn't much that can challenge the squirrel in order for their numbers to go down. There is no threat from food shortages and no threat from being eaten by larger animals that could live there.

Action potentials are generated at the axon hillock of a neuron and travel in one direction towards the synaptic terminals. Why
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The sodium channel have refractory period.

Explanation:

Action potential are generated at axon hillock of neuron and travel across the neuron in response to stimuli. For the the generation of action potential the steps are stimulus, depolarization, repolarization, hyperpolarization and resting state.

So the first step for action potential after stimulus is depolarization. Depolarization requires the opening of sodium channels to make the inside of neuronal membrane positive. These sodium channels have refractory period. They cannot open immediately after activation. So the sodium channels of one direction in neuron (upstream) become refractory and it is convenent to open the sodium channels of other direction (downstream) of neuron. That why action potential is transmitted in one direction.

It is like the gunpowder placed at a line the fire cannot go back in burnt gun powder direction.

Antibiotic resistance may develop in a bacterium through A GENETIC MUTATION and BY REQUIRING RESISTANCE FROM ANOTHER BACTERIUM

B.) Describe how bacterial cells acquire the ability to produce toxins?

The virulent strains of bacteria as in Corynebacterium diphtheria, and Streptococcus pyogenes all manufacture toxins with weighty physiological impacts, unlike the nonvirulent strains which do not manufacture toxins. The toxins are generated by a bacteriophage gene that has been received by transduction.
