1 answer:

8 0

The body size overestimation is most consistent characteristics with anorexia nervosa. The anorexia nervosa is a mental and perhaps life-threatening eating condition distinct by an very low body weight comparative to stature in which this is called body mass index and is a role of an individual height and weight, risky and unnecessary weight loss, irrational fear of weight gains and misleading awareness of self-perception and body. The person who undergo from anorexia nervosa demonstrate an obsession with a thin figure and unusual eating patterns and is interchangeable with the term anorexia which talk about to self-starvation and deficiency of appetite.

Transmission of information along the axon takes place via an electrochemical process called the _____.

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer: Neurotransmission

Explanation:

The transfer of the information from one neuron to another takes place through the release of the chemical substances from the axon of one neuron to the dendrite of another via synaptic junction.

The chemicals that is transferred between two neurons is known as neurotransmitter and the process is known as neurotransmission.

The brain consists of multiple neurons and this is how the information is transferred across the brain and body.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

If an inhibitory synapse fires at the same time and at the same distance from the initial segment as an excitatory synapse of the same intensity there will be no changes in the potential in the firing zone.

Explanation:

Under normal conditions, the transmembrane potential depends on the ionic charges present in the intracellular and extracellular spaces. The extracellular space load is usually positive and in the cytoplasm is negative.

<u>Depolarization</u> occurs by opening ion channels that allow sodium to enter the cell, making the intracellular space more positive.
An opening of potassium channels releases this ion to the extracellular space, leading to <u>hyperpolarization</u>.

An excitatory synapse is one capable of depolarizing a cell and boosting the production of action potential, provided it is capable of reaching the threshold of said potential.

On the other hand, an inhibitory synapse is able to hyperpolarize the cell membrane and prevent an action potential from originating, so that they can inhibit the action of an excitatory synapse.

The interaction between two synapses, one excitatory and one inhibitory, -called synapse summation- will depend on the strength that each of them possesses. In this case, the intensity of both synapses being the same, there will be no changes in the membrane potential in the firing zone.

Two organisms, with the genotypes FFEe and FfEE, are mated. Assuming independent assortment of the F/f and E/e genes: 1) Provide

IgorC [24]

Answer:

<h2> FFEE, FfEE, FFEe, and FfEe</h2><h2> All the progeny show same 1/4 or 25% probability.</h2>

Explanation:

Given; parents are with genotype FFFe and FfEE

F/f and E/e are showing independent assortment,

1. Genotype of all possible offspring are;

gamete from parent FFEe are; FE and Fe ,

gamete from parent FfEE are; FE and fE.

So genotype of offspring are: FFEE, FfEE, FFEe, and FfEe

2. All the progeny show same 1/4 or 25% probability.
