Answer:
The correct answer is option A. "the temporary hyperpolarization of the axon membrane following the action potential spike".
Explanation:
Action potentials, also known as "spikes" or "impulses", are electric impulses that neurons use to send information from the cell's body down to the axon. The impulses are created when ions travel across the neuron's membrane creating a depolarization current. This depolarization current is responsible for an temporary hyperpolarization of the axon membrane following the action potential spike. When neurons are hyperpolarized they are not able to produce another action potential. In consequence, actions potentials move in one direction along the neuron away from the cell body, as well as, adjacent locations go trough similar depolarization processes.

Explanation:
Bacterial count in stock- 1.85x10^6 cfu/ml
Dilution methods
Take 100 uL or (0.1ml) from stock and add to 900ul (0.9ml) saline and mixed it- this makes 10^1dilution.
Now take 100ul from 10^1 dilution and add to next 900ul saline this is 10^2 dilution, similarly do upto 10^5 dilution.
Then take 100ul from 10^ 4 and 10^5 dilution seperately and plate on LB agar plate seperetely and count the colonies.
Cfu/ml formula= (No.of colonies x dilution factor)/0.1 ml
So suppose, 18 colonies formed on 10^4 dilution then total no. Of cells in stock will be 18x10^4/ 0.1= 18x10^5 cfu/ml.
If we dilute 10^4 or 10^5 that's leads to colony count of 18-19 colonies on 10^4 dilution while 2 colonies should come on plate of 10^5 dilution.

Answer:
Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate
Explanation:
Muscle contraction results from myosin heads adhering to actin and attracting it inwards. It uses ATP. Myosin adhers to actin at a binding site of its globular actin protein and adheres at another binding site for ATP (hydrolyzed ATP to ADP, Pi and energy)
ATP binding prompts myosin to detach from actin, ATP is changed to ADP and inorganic phosphate, Pi by ATPase. The energy formed at this process orientates myosin head to a “cocked” direction.
The myosin head goes in the direction of the M line, holding the actin with it in the process causing the filaments to orientate nearly 10 nm in the direction of the M line--- power stroke (force is produced), the sarcomere reduces in length and the muscle contracts.
Note: The power stroke is seen when ADP and phosphate disattaches itself from the myosin head.
At the terminal point of the power stroke, the myosin head as low-energy, followed by ADP release.
The attached image shows the cross-bridge muscle contraction cycle, which is activated by Ca2+ sticking to the actin active site. And how actin moves in relation to myosin.
If a bacterium cannot use citrate agar will not change its color (stays green). On the other hand, if bacteria have the ability to use citrate, the medium will change its color from green to blue.
This happens because citrate agar contains pH indicator such as bromothymol blue which transforms from green to blue in alkaline conditions.
