Nadusha1986 [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer to this definition is: ACTION POTENTIAL

Explanation:

Action potential is a phenomenon in nervous system used to describe a change in electrical current that occurs when an impulse passes through a neuron or nerve cell. Action potential is induced when sodium (Na+) ions move from the extracellular environment into the intracellular environment.

Impulse travels across the axon of a neuron and thereby causes a difference in the electric potential i.e. - mv to + mv. This process, according to this question, whereby a change in electrical potential occurs due to the passage of an impulse through a nerve cell is termed ACTION POTENTIAL.

The mean resting pulse rate for men is 72 beats per minute. a simple random sample of men who regularly work out at mitch's gym
tamaranim1 [39]

Claim: the mean resting pulse rate for men is less than 72 bpm.

Symbolic form would be: μ < 72

Step 1: null hypothesis  : μ > =  7 2 b p m

Step 2: alternative hypothesis:  μ <  7 2 b p m



Step 3: the test statistic is z = mean – μ / standard dev/sqrt (n) = -3/4 / 1.7639 = -1.92


Step 4: c v method: since z α = -1.645, the test static is z = -1.92 is less than the CV, we reject null hypothesis


            P Value method: area is 0.0274, since the p value is <= α, reject null hypothesis.

Step 5: the sample data support the claim that the mean resting pulse rate for men is less than 72 bpm.

A. Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

B. Capillaries surrounding the brain have pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

C. Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are not surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

D. Capillaries surrounding the brain have pores and are not surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

The correct answer is option A.

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

Explanation:

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells because

Capillaries are tiny blood vessels in the circulatory system that connect aterioles to venules. They are the most abundant or they are much blood vessels. They can penetrate the tissues of the body which allow passage of food nutrients, oxygen in the body thereby allowing exchange of nutrients and oxygen between the body tissues and the blood.

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells while capillaries in the periphery Capillaries surrounding the brain have pores and are not surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.
