Answer:

The correct answer is - the large cross-sectional area and greater length of the cytoplasmic core get less resistance than the smaller cross-sectional area.

Explanation:

The greater length and the large cross-sectional area of the cytoplasmic path or core get less resistance than the resistance of the current path which is the small cross-sectional area of axoplasm. This leads it to greater resistance than the resistance of the current path through the extracellular fluid.

Other than this there is also an unequal distribution of the ions that leads to the increase in potential difference as higher Na+ ions present in cytoplasm and high amount of K+ ion present in axoplasm.

The suns energy drives which of the following processes?
Delicious77 [7]
The sun's energy drives various processes on earth. One of these processes is photosynthesis in plants whereby light energy is converted into chemical energy by forming carbohydrates from carbon dioxide plus water, which is a process which usually gives off oxygen which animals need to breathe. Another process driven by the sun's energy could be evaporation of water into the air to form water vapour  and clouds which then precipitate when cooled off over mountains so is involved in the water cycle.

explain how the seabirds populations are likely to respond to a sharp increase in the European rabbit populations on the island
Komok [63]

Answer: I got you

Explanation: On islands around the globe, invasive European rabbits wreak such havoc on plants and seabirds that governments worldwide have spent a century trying to eradicate the furry beasts. Scientist Scott Pearson had come to this steep uninhabited pile of rocks to catalog the decline of the rhinoceros auklet, a gray seabird that nests deep in hollowed-out hillside burrows. But instead of spying one of the white-eyebrowed creatures, Hodum came eye to eye with the most likely cause of its decline. Rabbits inside the borrow.
