1. The glutamate causes an influx of ca2+ ions into the nerve cell akin to what occurs during depolarization. However, this occurs excessively without regulation (due to excessive stimulation by the glutamate) that eventually causes nerve injury through cytotoxic edema.
2. When the ca2+ levels are lowered during stroke, then nerve cell injury would be obviated hence enabling the chances of restoration of nerve cell function. This would happen because there would be no excess calcium ions to influx when the NMDA receptors are excessively stimulated by the glutamate molecules.
<span>If the energy in glucose was released at once, most of the energy would be lost as light and heat. The light and heat could harm or even destroy the cell. The gradual process of cellular respiration allows the cell to control the release of energy into packages of ATP that can be used efficiently for cell activities.</span>
Your answer is Age of Object = n times t 1/2
Answer:
<u>Luteinizing hormone </u>(LH) stimulates Leydig cells to secrete testosterone
<u>Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)</u> stimulates Sertoli cells to secrete protein and other molecules required for spermatogenesis
Explanation:
Under the influence of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, the anterior pituitary releases luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). In males, LH stimulates interstitial cells of testes (Leydig cell) to secrete the hormone testosterone. FSH acts indirectly to stimulate spermatogenesis by causing the release of androgen-binding protein (ABP) from the Sertoli cells. The function of ABP is to maintain the higher concentrations of testosterone to stimulate the final steps of spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules.
Answer:
In studying the origin of the universe, one of the primary unanswered questions is <u>what came before the big bang.</u>
Explanation:
The big bang theory can be described as a theory which scientists have proposed to explain how the universe came into existence. This theory predicts how the extremely hot temperatures and dense atmosphere might have given rise to the stars and the galaxies.
Scientists have no idea what happened before the big bang theory. Some scientists predict that there might be another universe which collapsed before the big bang theory. While other scientists claim that there was nothing before the big bang.
