What allows the action potential to return to a repolarized state?

There are choices for this question namely:

<span>a. K+ leaks into cells.
b. Voltage-gated Na+ channels become inactivated.
c. Voltage-gated K+ channels become inactivated.
d. Na+ reaches equilibrium across the neural membrane and stops leaking in.
e. Voltage-gated Na+ channels close.

The correct answer is "voltage-gated Na+ channels become inactivated". In the events concerning an action potential, the first event is a stimulus that depolarize the resting membrane potential up to the threshold. When the threshold is reached there will be opening of voltage gated Na+ channels wherein sodium can enter the cell and make the membrane more positive therefore called depolarization. After depolarization, voltage gated Na+ channels become inactivated and K+ leaks out of the cell making the cell less negative hence repolarization. After which, more and more K+ ions leaks out making the membrane more negative than the resting membrane potential hence hyperpolarization. When K+ channels are inactivated, the cell membrane will eventually go back to its resting membrane potential.</span>

Explain how mining can be harmful to the environment
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

It can lead to multiple health hazords like harmful substances and it has a huge waste of rocks and vegatation.

When cartilage is produced at the epiphyseal side of the metaphysis at the same rate as bone is deposited on the opposite side,
katrin [286]

Answer:

grow longer

Explanation:

In a long bone, the epiphyseal is the growing region. In young bones, bone formation occurs in a layer of hyaline cartilage. The epiphyseal plate forms cartilage on the epiphyseal end. Cartilage is calcified on the diaphyseal side, and the diaphysis lengthens.

Which stage of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) would a client with a CD4 T cell count of 325 cells/mm3 be classified
kirza4 [7]

Based on the CDC guidelines a person with a CD4+ cell count between 200-400 is regarded as being in <u>the second stage</u> of the HIV infection.

Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a condition caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). AIDS is a chronic disorder and can become life-threatening for the infected person. The HIV viruses reproduce inside the host and while doing so they destroy the CD4+ immune cells which reduce the person's ability to fight against other diseases.

CD4+ cell count and AIDS

According to the CDC (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), HIV infection is categorized into different stages based on the number of CD4+ cells.

  • Stage 1: - CD4+ cell count is more than 500 per microlitre. There are no symptoms or AIDS-related conditions.
  • Stage 2: - CD4+ cell count is more than 500 per microlitre. There are no symptoms or AIDS-related conditions.
  • Stage 3: - The CD4+ cell count falls below 200 and AIDS-related symptoms and conditions are present.
