Which of these actions is the best way for an individual to conserve water?
BigorU [14]

Answer: B. Take short showers instead of baths.

Explanation:

The water is the most important non-living environmental factor which is the main requirement for survival of every living being. Even though water is a renewable resource which can be replenish by the mode of water cycling in nature but with the increase in the global population the demand of freshwater has increased. Also with the increase in the causes and sources of water pollution the levels of freshwater sources are decreasing. Therefore, the issues of water conservation should be taken into consideration.

According to the given situation, if an individual needs to conserve water, take short showers instead of baths is the correct option because of the fact that short showers will prevents the wastage of large amount of water which could be wasted while taking baths.

Action potentials (nerve impulses) are changes in the membrane potential that, once started, will affect the entire excitable me
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The order of events would be:

4.Threshold stimulus, Na+ channels open.  This is the first event

5.Na+ influx, Depolarization. Second event

2.Na+ channels close, K+ channels open.  This is the third event

1.K+ efflux, Repolarization.  Fourth event

3.Hyperpolarization, K+ channels close

Explanation:

In resting state, the membrane is negative inside, and  K+ concentration is higher than outside.   Na+ concentration is higher outside instead.  

Sodium influx is responsible for membrane depolarization.  It's the event to produce the action potential.  When sodium channels are closing, potassium channels open and K+ go outside until repolarization occurs. But now we have both ions in different sides of the membrane, and this can't be stimulated again to produce other action potential. The membrane will remain refractory to respond to the adequate stimulus until ions migrate to their original sites.  This is Na+ outside, and K+ inside.  This is responsibility of the Na+/ K+ pump, that uses ATP to pump Na+ out, and  K+ in. Once both ions had been relocated in the membrane, this is ready to receive a correct stimulus to produce a new action potential.

Use of antibiotics in animal feed leads to antibiotic-resistant bacteria because
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Explanation: The options attached to this question are given below:

A) Bacteria from other animals replace those killed by the antibiotics.

B) The few surviving bacteria that are affected by the antibiotics develop immunity to the antibiotics, which they pass on to their progeny.

C) The antibiotics cause new mutations to occur in the surviving bacteria, which results in resistance to antibiotics.  

D) The antibiotics kill susceptible bacteria, but the few that are naturally resistant live and reproduce, and their progeny repopulate the host animal.

E) The antibiotics persist in soil and water.

Antibiotics are sometimes used in animals to control infections. With time, the microbes that are been targeted with the antibiotics usually develop mutations, which makes the antibiotics to become ineffective, thus, the antibiotics will only be able to kill the susceptible microbes while the ones that have developed resistance will remain and give birth to young ones that are also resistant to antibiotics.
