When an action potential arrives at the end of the axon terminal, a series of events take place that result in the release of ne

urotransmitter from the presynaptic axon. Select the answer that correctly describes the primary stimulus for vesicles to move toward the cell membrane and eventually release their contents.

Answer:

Voltage-gated membrane channels open, and Ca+2 enters the cytoplasm, increasing intracellular calcium

Explanation:

The neurotransmitters in the neurons are stored in the synaptic vesicles in the synaptic knob present at the axon terminal.

The neurotransmitters are released when the action potential reaches the axon terminal and opens up the voltage-gated calcium channels. The calcium channels allow the entry of the calcium from the synapses and this causes the release of the synaptic vesicles which fuses with the cell membrane. This fusion releases the neurotransmitter in the synapse.

8. Aubrey Kingsley was trapped in a house fire and suffered third-degree burns on her arms, legs.
Luda [366]

Answer:

Third-degree burns destroy the epidermis and dermis. They may go into the innermost layer of skin, the subcutaneous tissue. The burn site may look white or blackened and charred.

Explanation:

The treatment of third-degree burns may require the process of skin grafting or the use of synthetic skin. Severe burns covering large parts of the body may need more intensive treatments such as intravenous (IV) antibiotics to prevent infection or IV fluids to replace fluids lost when skin was burned.

Answer:

A. NADH and FADH2 both donate electrons at the same location.

Explanation:

In the respiratory chain, four large protein complexes inserted into the mitochondrial inner membrane transport NADH and FADH₂ electrons (formed in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle) to oxygen gas, reducing them to NAD⁺ and FAD, respectively.

These electrons have great affinity for oxygen gas and, when combined with it, reduce it to water molecules at the end of the reaction.

Oxygen gas effectively participates in cellular respiration at this stage, so its absence would imply interruption of the process.

NADH and FADH₂ electrons, when attracted to oxygen, travel a path through protein complexes, releasing energy in this process.

The energy released by the NADH and FADH₂ electrons in the respiratory chain in theory yields <u>34</u> <u>ATP</u>, however, under normal conditions an average of 26 ATP molecules is formed.

If we consider that these 26 molecules are added to the two ATP formed in glycolysis and two ATP formed in the Krebs cycle, it can be said that cellular respiration reaches a maximum yield of 30 ATP per glucose molecule, although theoretically this number was 38 ATP per glucose molecule.
