Answer:
lateral inhibition in the retina
Explanation:
Horizontal cells are in contact with photoreceptor cells through the synapse. One photoreceptor forms an excitatory synapse with horizontal cell in the adjacent regions of the retina while the horizontal cell forms an inhibitory synapse with another photoreceptor.
Hence, as one photoreceptor activates the horizontal cell, the horizontal cell, in turn, inhibits the other photoreceptor cell and thereby reduces the quantity of neurotransmitter released at the bipolar cell. In this way, horizontal cells transmit lateral inhibitory stimulus to the photoreceptor which in turn improves the contrast at the edges of the object.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
The two layers of the plasma membrane are identical.
Explanation:
The plasma membrane is called a lipid bilayer because it is composed of two layers of cells and it makes the boundary of cell.
The other three statements are false because
Plasma membrane is semipermeable i.e it allows the transport of materials inside and outside the cell.
The proteins in the plasma membrane are integral proteins
The proteins in the plasma membrane are extensively folded and protruding from the membrane are in contact with inside and outside the cell.
Answer:
- Both processes form minerals.
- Volcanic eruptions form precipitates and shifting of tectonic plates form minerals.
Explanation:
Both volcanic eruptions and the shifting of tectonic plates form minerals. Volcanoes and their eruptions can directly or indirectly lead to the formation and/or deposit of minerals such as diamonds and zinc. Shifting also forms minerals due to the forces of compression the plates apply on each other as they move past.
Volcanoes are known the cause precipitates because when the erupt, the ash that is released mixes with water vapor which then becomes rain eventually.
Answer:
Explanation:
In this lesson we will learn the three basic parts of all cells. Cells have something called a cell membrane, a nucleus, and cytoplasm.
