Answer:

The given statement is false.

A neuron is the basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system. It helps in transmitting information from one neuron to another neuron, gland, or muscle cell.

The conduction of nerve impulse is electrochemical in nature. It transmits the impulse electrically through the axon the nerve cells and chemically through synapses (gap between two nerves cells).

The axon terminals of pre-synaptic nerve cell release chemical messengers (also called neurotransmitters) in the synaptic cleft. These messengers then bind to the receptors present on the post-synaptic nerve cell and regenerate the nerve impulse.

what is meant by an atp cycle and why is it important, frequent event in cells? how does this involve adp
polet [3.4K]

ATPs are the power cell of a cell. Just like a cell, they need to be charged before they can deliver power.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

ATP or the Adenosine Triphosphate is a complex molecule containing a Adenine nitrogen base, a ribose sugar and three phosphates being attached with each other in a chain. Adenosine Triphosphate is the power currency of a cell. It just acts like a rechargeable battery. The metabolic and physiological processes of a cell that needs energy, involves the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP and Pi which are Adenosine Diphosphate and Inorganic phosphate respectively.

Now the ATP is discharged and needs to be charged. So the ADPs are charged into ATPs by different processes of respiration  like Glycolysis, Kreb's Cycle, Electron Transport Chain etc.

Both the hydrolysis and the condensation of ATP makes the ATP cycle.

Nimfa-mama [501]
Variations are beneficial for the survival of the species. Populations of organisms fill well-defined places, or niches, in the ecosystem, using their ability to reproduce.However, if some variations were to be present in a few individuals in these populations, there would be some chance for them to survive.
