Biology
1 answer:
Scorpion4ik [409]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:1).A nonrenewable resource is a natural substance that is not replenished with the speed at which it is consumed. It is a finite resource.

2)Rocks are made of minerals, like quartz, calcite, feldspars, and micas. Most rocks are made from more than one mineral, but there are quite a few kinds that are made from only one mineral. Minerals are not rocks, rocks are made of minerals.

3)Coal is a very useful rock that formed over millions of years from the ... No, coal is not a mineral because coal is made of dead plants.

4)The relatively cheap cost of fossil fuels is a major positive aspect. They are in abundant supply, which makes them inexpensive to drill or mine for. In particular, coal is one of the most widely available fossil fuels.

5)High initial costs for material and installation and long ROI (however, with the reduction in the cost of solar over the last 10 years, solar is becoming more cost feasible every day) Needs lots of space as efficiency is not 100% yet. No solar power at night so there is a need for a large battery bank.

6)Asphalt, also known as bitumen is a sticky, black, highly viscous liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum. It may be found in natural deposits or it may not.

7)When fossil fuels are burned, they release toxic gases into the air that cause pollution and increase global warming.

8)The soil considered an important resources because : It provides food through agriculture. It is the source of nutrients for many forms of life. Many valuable minerals are explored from the soil.

9)Renewable resources are an energy source that cannot be depleted and are able to supply a continuous source of clean energy.

10)the cost of processing the bottle after it was no longer used

11)The rock display with smaller holes shows copper drilling, which is deep underground.

Drag the labels onto the flowchart to indicate the sequence of events that occurs in the presynaptic cell (orange background) an
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

In chemical transmission the release of chemical messengers known as neurotransmitters occurs. Neurotransmitters carry information from the presynaptic or transmitter neuron to the postsynaptic or recipient cell.

As you may recall from the article on the structure and function of the neuron, synapses are usually formed between the nerve terminals - axon terminals - of the sending neuron and the cell body or dendrites of the receiving neuron.  

Scheme of synaptic transmission. An action potential travels through the axon of the presynaptic or emitting cell, and reaches multiple axon terminals branching from the axon. The axon terminal is adjacent to the dendrite of the postsynaptic or recipient cell. This place of close connection between axon and dendrite is the synapse.

A single axon can have multiple ramifications, which allows it to synapse with several postsynaptic cells. Similarly, a single neuron can receive miles of synaptic inputs from many different presynaptic or emitting neurons.

Within the axon terminal of a transmitter cell there are many synaptic vesicles. These are membranous spheres full of neurotransmitter molecules. There is a small space between the axon terminal of the presynaptic neuron and the postsynaptic cell membrane, this space is called synaptic space.
