What type of ions carry the impulse across the synapse from one neuron to the next ?

Biology
1 answer:
grandymaker [24]3 years ago
7 0

It's the sodium ion.

When a neural impulse is fired in both neurons, it is always cause by an excited electron in one neuron moving to the other neuron to destabilize the balance of ions trying to keep them at equilibrium. This action either depolarizes or hyper-polarizes the membrane. If it does, then sodium ions--the key deficient ones--can flow into that region of low charge and maintain that state of low charge, keeping the cell membrane stable.

In the absence of oxygen, what is the net gain of ATP for each glucose molecule that enters glycolysis?
Naily [24]

Answer:

2 molecules of ATP

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the anaerobic process (no oxygen required) used in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy. It occurs in the cytoplasm of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It is the first step of cellular respiration.

Glycolysis is subdivided into two phases: the first phase uses energy (ATP), while the second phase produces it together with pyruvate and NADH.

Two molecules of ATP are required for the first stage of glycolysis, while 4 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molecules are formed in the second stage.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

All of the above

Explanation:

ATP synthase is a transmembrane protein enzyme. It harnesses the potential energy –proton motive force-  created by the development of a proton gradient across a membrane (could be across the intermembrane space in chloroplast and mitochondria). As the H+ ions 'drain' back and pass through their channels in the protein enzyme, the synthase is able to phosphorylate ADP and Pi to form ATP.

These ATPs (from photophosporylation) in light-dependent phase, are used in the catabolism of glucose, in the light-indepedent phase.

What is the main difference between adaptive radiation and other forms of speciation?
ahrayia [7]
<span>The main difference between adaptice radiation and other forms of speciationn is : Adaptive radiation happens over a relatively short time.
In natural process of speciation, the perfect mutation could occur within millions of years. In adaptive radiation, the mutation could instantly happenes not long after the radiataion process</span>

List three reasons that snow predictions made by meteorologists are sometimes incorrect
mr Goodwill [35]

The conditions depend on the density level of the snow.

Another reason is the imperfect data gathering especially if initial results are only gathered.

The third reason is that computer models still find it difficult to see small scale phenomena.
