How do sodium and potassium leak channels play a role in the development of the negative membrane potential of the axolemma (pla

sma membrane of the axon)?

kirza4 [7]3 years ago

The plasma membrane of axon is called axolemma. The potassium and sodium leak channels leak the sodium and potassium ions inside the cell respectively. The leak channels provide the constant movement of ions across the membrane. Potassium and sodium ions are positively charged, thus entry of positively charged ions inside the cell makes the cell more positively charged than the environment outside the cell. The environment outside the cell becomes more negatively charged. This leads in the negative membrane potential of axolemma.

What is an example of why the process of photosynthesis is important to life on earth
ruslelena [56]

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway that’s integral to producing energy in plants and other primary producers. Energy stored within carbohydrates, like molecules of glucose is produced from light, water and carbon dioxide while oxygen is released.

6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Carbon dioxide + water + energy

Carbohydrates molecules that supply energy and provide support; they consist of mainly sugars or starches in long chains and rings to form monosaccharide monomers. Inclusive of monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides (which describes the type of bonding and the degree of complexity of the polymers), their basic makeup comprises C, H, O -with many polar OH groups.

The energy they store, is required by all living organisms for biological processes; these undergo respiration, in order to release energy stored within its bonds, in the form of the molecule ATP.
