Answer:

Clinical deficiency of calcium.

Explanation:

Calcium is an important element present in the living organism. Calcium is present in bones, teeth and blood. Calcium is involved in the cell signalling also.

The main constituent of calcium is bone. The hip fracture in a 70 year old woman may likely occur due to the clinical deficiency of calcium. The calcium deficiency causes various bone related problems.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d)

Considering the experimental design, which claim is best supported using the data?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

C low competition for glucose

Explanation:

From the given answer choices and information,

It cannot be A since there is no visual disease or any indication of disease in the experiment

Cannot be B, since space would not be an issue since it clearly hit 111 on day 3

and cannot be D since there is no indication of a change in temperature.

However, we know Petri Dishes have nutrients to stimulate cell growth, and those resources are not unlimited therefore we can only attest that a large portion of the nutrients have been consumed and starved some of the cells thus causing a population decrease

Describe and explain the changes in electrical activity both in receptor and in the sensory neurone as increasing pressure is ap
blsea [12.9K]
<span>Pacinian corpuscles are rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors so they respond only at the onset and offset of the stimulus. The Pacinian corpuscle has a single afferent nerve fiber. Its end is covered by a sensitive receptor membrane whose sodium channels will open when the membrane is deformed in any way. Pressure thus causes sodium to enter the neuron and create a generator potential. If this potential reaches a certain threshold nerve impulses are formed. This impulse is now transferred along the axon with the use of sodium channels and sodium/potassium pumps in the axon membrane. The magnitude of the stimulus is encoded in the frequency of impulses generated in the neuron. So the more massive or rapid the deformation of a single corpuscle, the higher the frequency of nerve impulses generated in its neuron.</span>
