The resting potential of a resting neuron is caused by

Biology
2 answers:
Brums [2.3K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A resting (non-signaling) neuron has a voltage across its membrane called the resting membrane potential, or simply the resting potential. The resting potential is determined by concentration gradients of ions across the membrane and by membrane permeability to each type of ion.

Explanation:

hopefully that helps?

Increasing the substrate concentration in an enzymatic reaction could overcome which of the following?
bixtya [17]

Answer:

(C) Competitive inhibition

Explanation:

When a substrate competes with and inhibitor, what they are actually doing is competing by the active site of the enzyme. In terms of probabilities, when there is much more of one molecule of X than its competitor Y, it is more likely for any of the molecules of X to reach the active site of the enzyme than for any of the molecules of Y.

Then is one would like to reduce the effects of an inhibitor reversible bonded to an enzyme, one possibility is to increase the concentration of a substrate (which in turn means that there will be a higher relative number of its molecules in the media), increasing the probability to meet the active site of the enzyme and as a result displacing the inhibitor (assuming it not increased as well).

Who discovered the monomers of nucleic acids? Phoebus Levene James Watson, Francis Crick, and Rosalind Franklin Friedrich Miesch
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Phoebus Levene( 1896, Sagor Russia - Septemeber 1940, New York)

Explanation:

These were developed by Phoebus Aaron Theodor Levene ,he was a russian who studied medicine, with keen interest in organic chemistry.

He migrated to the US in 1891, and started practising medicine  in 1892.Due to his strong interest in research he combined research(1894) in  molecular structure of sugars with medical practice,But this was cut short when he contracted tuberculosis.

Between 1896- 1906,he collaborated with many nucleic acids  and protein exoperts  e.g Albrecht Kossel and Emil Fischer to  wok on the structure of DNA.And headed the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research.

He works included :the isolation of  Nucleotide-monomers of DNA

:the isolation of D-ribose sugar from ribonucleic acid molecule.(RNA)

Discovery of 2-deoxyribonucleic ,

How the components of Nucleotide(phosphate group,sugars, and organic bases) combined to form nucleotide, and how the latter undergo condensation reaction to form DNA.

Arrange the following in the proper order in which they occur during clonal selection. 1. Helper T cells are activated. 2. Macro
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

1) Macrophages ingest antigen 2) Helper T cells are activated 3) B cells differentiate into plasma cells and memory cells.

Explanation:

Innate immunity and adaptive immunity provide protection against foreign invaders. Innate immunity is non specific and adaptive immunity is specific immune response; includes the production of antibody after a sequence of events.

  • When an antigen enters the body the phagocytic cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells ingest the antigen by a process called as phagocytosis. These cells act as antigen presenting cells and present it to T cells.
  • T cells are of two types T helper cells and T cytotoxic cell. T cytotoxic cells killed the affected cell such as affected by virus while T helper cells signal for the production antibodies.
  • Antibodies are produced from the plasma cells while memory cells act as record keeping. The plasma cells are stimulated by interleukins.
