<h2>Sodium channels </h2>
Explanation:
Depolarization is a result of sodium channels opening as a result of chemical or pressure-based stimuli
- Depolarization starts when a threshold stimulus applied on a neuron via Na+ mechanically operated channels that trigger action potential
- Action potential is an efficient signaling process by which distantly located cells communicate to each other
- Depolarization of membrane potential is due to influx of Na+ via voltage gated Na+ channels
- Fast opening of voltage gated Na+ channel shifts membrane potential from -70mV to + 50mV at which voltage gated Na+ channels become inactive thus influx of Na+ abruptly stops
Scientists have concluded that the average human body contains approx. 37.2 trillion cells. However it depends upon your size compared an average human being. :)<span />
The carbon that plants need for photosynthesis comes from carbon dioxide, or CO2 that's present in our atmosphere. Hope it helps
Neural control of GFR is mediated by Sympathetic neurons that innervate alpha receptors on vascular smooth muscle causing Vasoconstriction.
<h3>How is GFR regulated?</h3>
- The sympathetic division of the nervous system regulates the GFR or Glomerular Filtration Rate.
- GFR is the sum total of filtration rates of all the working nephrons in the kidney.
- Sympathetic division comes into action when the mean arterial pressure is very low (below 80mmHg).
- In response to low blood pressure, the medulla releases norepinephrine through sympathetic nerves.
- Norepinephrine leads to activation of alpha receptors on arteries which cause vasoconstriction.
- Alpha receptors are more abundant on afferent arterioles.
- This leads to vasoconstriction (narrowing) of arteries supplying to the glomerulus.
- This decreases blood flow to glomerulus, leading to decrease in GFR.
