Explain why a message moving along nerve pathways takes time.
TiliK225 [7]
The conduction of nerve impulses relies upon the movement of positively-charged ions across the nerve cell membrane. The entry of sodium into the cell produces a wave of positive charge that travels down the length of an axon. Then chemicals called neurotransmitters are secreted out of the end of the axon onto the next nerve in the series (the postsynpatic nerve). This narrow space in between neurons is called the synapse. These neurotransmiiters released by the presynaptic nerve bind to receptors on the postsynaptic nerve. The binding of these receptors opens up channels in this second nerve's membrane that allow sodium ions to enter the nerve cell and initiate another wave of positive charge, and so on... The nerve signal can only move as fast as these ions and neurotransmitters can diffuse to generate this process. 

<span>As a professional athlete repeats a given activity many times over, the nerve cells "upregulate" their receptors, meaning that they produce additional receptors to put in the membrane. This is just a natural reaction to the nerve being repeatedly stimulated in the same way over and over. When neurotransmitter is secreted from the presynaptic neuron, there are more receptors on the postsynaptic neuron for it to bind, more channels open up, more ions enter in a shorter time and build up positive charge to create the impulse faster, and so the overall effect is faster. </span>

<span>Additionally, there are sheaths of fatty tissue (called myelin) that insulate the charge in the neuron and allow it to be conducted faster. As people age, these sheaths can start to degrade, making the nerve cell more "leaky" and causing the impulse to be conducted more slowly. </span>

BigorU [14]

Question:

A population of organisms is represented by three black marbles and three gray marbles. The gray organisms have a beneficial genetic mutation. Draw a model that shows natural selection over three generations of these organisms

Answer:

lThe population will suffer Directional selection. In the attached files you will find the drawing of the model.

Explanation:  

Natural selection is the result of the phenotype-environment interaction which determines gene destiny in space and time, selecting beneficial alleles and increasing their frequency in the population. Among other types of natural selection, we can find the directional selection.

Directional selection increases in the proportion of individuals with an extreme phenotypic trait, in this case, the color of the organisms. This selection presents more frequently in those cases in which interactions between living organisms and the environment modify in the same direction.  

Directional selection leads to the fixation of the beneficial allele and the consequent loss of the other one. In this case, for example, the gray suffered a beneficial mutation, and after three generations the allele codifying for this mutation shows an increase in its frequency, approaching fixation.
