An ion channel in the membrane of neurons which <u>open or close</u> in response to a neurotransmitter that binds to its receptor is called: ligand-gated channel.
<h3>What is an
action potential?</h3>
An action potential can be defined as a sudden, fast change in electrical (voltage) potential with respect to the transmission of an impulse to a receptor, across a cellular membrane such as:
<h3>What is a neuron?</h3>
A neuron is a nerve cell that is saddled with the responsibility of transmitting electrical impulses down an axon across a cellular membrane of the body of a living organism through an action potential.
In Science, a ligand-gated channel is a type of ion channel in the membrane of neurons which <u>open or close</u> in response to a neurotransmitter that binds to its receptor.

The correct answer is option D, difficulty of redesigning workable ecosystems
Reason -
The area that was redesigned into an ecosystem actually failed to attract the endangered species of clapper rails in California because of the following two reasons –
a) Failed attempt of restoration of Cord grass ( a tree which is a dominant tree in the nesting habitat of clapper rail) . Even if few such trees were there they could not grow to their full height and thus were incapable of providing adequate nesting cover
b) Due to the lack of predatory insect, some herbivore insect in the ecosystem attacked the green grasses thereby making the nesting inadequate.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Carbo (Carbon) Hydr (hydrogen) Ates (Oxygen)
