Explain why the resistance of the current path through the extracellular fluid is much smaller than the resistance of the current path through the axoplasm?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - the large cross-sectional area and greater length of the cytoplasmic core get less resistance than the smaller cross-sectional area.

Explanation:

The greater length and the large cross-sectional area of the cytoplasmic path or core get less resistance than the resistance of the current path which is the small cross-sectional area of axoplasm. This leads it to greater resistance than the resistance of the current path through the extracellular fluid.

Other than this there is also an unequal distribution of the ions that leads to the increase in potential difference as higher Na+ ions present in cytoplasm and high amount of K+ ion present in axoplasm.

Answers

Answer:

DNA makes a copy of itself during cell division.  The separation of the two single strands of DNA creates a 'Y' shape called a replication 'fork'. The two separated strands  act as templates for making the new strands of DNA.

Which blood type can give to all the other blood types?

Answers

Answer:

Type O

Explanation:

Type O can donate red blood cells to anybody. It's the universal donor. Group AB can donate to other AB's but can receive from all others.

People with type O- blood are called universal donors because their donated red blood cells have no A, B or Rh antigens and can therefore be safely given to people of any blood group.

Examine the cell diagrams shown. Which of the following choices identifies the eukaryotic cell for the correct reason?

Select one:
a. Because it contains organelles
b. Because it is a single cell
c. Because it contains genetic material
d. Because it is much smaller

Answers

Answer:

Option a

Explanation:

A eukaroytic cell contains more organelles than prokaryotic cells, and it is much bigger and complex.

hope this helps and is right :)

The choice that identifies the eukaryotic cell for the correct reason would the presence of organelles. The correct option would, therefore, be A.

Eukaryotic cells differ from prokaryotic cells such that:

Eukaryotic cells have nucleus, prokaryotic cells do not. The genetic materials of prokaryotic cells lies freely within the cytoplasm.Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles while prokaryotic cells do not. In size, eukaryotic cells (10 - 100 microns) is much bigger than prokaryotic cells (0.1 - 5 microns).

In the images, the organelles of the eukaryotic cells can be seen while the smaller size of the prokaryotic cell can also be observed.

An individual has the genotype Aa Bb CC Dd ee FF. How many different types of gametes could it produce in terms of unique allelic combinations of these genes?

Answers

Answer:

64

Explanation:

The individual in this question with genotype: Aa Bb CC Dd ee FF has six (6) different traits encoded by six (6) genes. The diploid number of the organism in this question is 12, however, the number of possible allelic combinations in each gamete can be calculated by using 2^n where n = haploid number of chromosome or number of allele that can be in one gamete.

Using this simple formula, 6 possible alleles can be in the gamete of this organism with the above genotype, hence, the individual can produce 2^6 = 64 different types of gametes in terms of unique allelic combinations of these 6 genes.

What affect does the Sahel's climate and physical characteristics have on population distribution?

Answers

Answer:

The Sahel has been labeled as one of those regions with the danger of overpopulation. It has been described with adjectives such as semi-arid, hot, dry, windy or sunny.

Sources have it that the G5 Sahel countries which include Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Chad will increase from about 84 million inhabitants in 2019 to 197 million in 2050. This projection includes people under 15 years of age which comprise about 50% of the entire population.

The climate itself doesn't seem to deter population growth. What seems to be occurring is sedentarization. This is due to rapid desertification and drought which have persisted for some time.

Explanation:

Sedentarization refers to the choice of a group of people who usually are very nomadic or migratory to settle permanently in a place.

This is usually due to a more favorable weather and topography which supports agriculture.

What causes the appearance of the Moon to change over time?

B
The Moon's position relative to the Sun and Earth as it revolves around
Sun.
с
The rotation of the Moon on its axis.
The distance of the Moon to the Sun.
D

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The reason we see different moon phases is because of how the sun, earth and moon are relative to each other .

Answer:

As the Moon orbits our planet, its varying position means that the Sun lights up different regions, creating the illusion that the Moon is changing shape over time. The best way of getting to understand the lunar phases is to regularly go out on a clear night when the Moon is in the sky and observe it.

Explanation:

Actually, the Moon rotates in the same period that it revolves, so we always see the same side (the white arrow keeps pointing to Earth). The differences in the Moon's appearance from one night to the next are due to changing illumination by the Sun, not to its own rotation.

using what have you learnt about the effect of concentration gradient and surface area to volume ratio, explain the adaptations of a leaf for photosynthesis​

Answers

Answer:

thanks

Explanation:

Leaves are adapted for photosynthesis and gaseous exchange.

They are adapted for photosynthesis by having a large surface area, and contain openings, called stomata to allow carbon dioxide into the leaf and oxygen out. Although these design features are good for photosynthesis, they can result in the leaf losing a lot of water. The cells inside the leaf have water on their surface. Some of this water evaporates, and the water vapour can then escape from inside the leaf.

When water evaporates from the leaves, resulting in more water being drawn up from the roots, it is called transpiration.

To reduce water loss the leaf is coated in a waxy cuticle to stop the water vapour escaping through the epidermis. Leaves usually have fewer stomata on their top surface to reduce this water loss.

Leaves enable photosynthesis to occur. Photosynthesis is the process by which leaves absorb light and carbon dioxide to produce glucose (food) for plants to grow. Leaves are adapted to perform their function, eg they have a large surface area to absorb sunlight.

Plants have two different types of 'transport' tissue, xylem and phloem. These specialised tissues move substances in and around the plant.

write a letter to the government explaining the dangers posed by global warming/climate change​

Answers

Answer:

Global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner.  Effects that scientists had predicted in the past would result from global climate change are now occurring: loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves. Scientists have high confidence that global temperatures will continue to rise for decades to come, largely due to greenhouse gases produced by human activities. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which includes more than 1,300 scientists from the United States and other countries, forecasts a temperature rise of 2.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century.

I think we disagree on the implication of his remarks tonight and on the statements that he has made on many occasions during his campaign to the effect that the United States has been standing still. We heard tonight, for example, the statement made that our growth in national product last year was the lowest of any industrial nation in the world. Now last year, of course, was 1958. That happened to be a recession year. But when we look at the growth of G.N.P. this year, a year of recovery, we find that it's six and nine-tenths per cent and one of the highest in the world today.
