The autonomic nervous system releases chemical messengers to influence its target organs
Answer: 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).
Explanation:
Resting membrane potential is a voltage carried by a resting (non-signaling) neuron, or called as resting potential, across its membrane. The resting potential is determined by ion concentration gradients across the membrane, and the permeability of the membrane to each ion form.
In a resting brain, there are gradients of concentration across the Na+ and K+ membranes. Forces shift their gradients down through channels, resulting in a separation of charges that provides the potential for rest. The membrane is much more permeable to K+ than to Na+, so the resting potential is similar to K+'s potential for equilibrium.
Hence, the correct option is 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).
Answer:
The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger.
Answer:
Mutations increase genetic variation and the potential for individuals to differ
Explanation:
Mutations can result in an organism having a new allele. When that organism produces offspring their offspring are most likely to inherit the allele created from the mutation which could potentially lead to genetic variation.
