The process that is vital in the recycling of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus is decomposition.
During decomposition, organic matter from dead organisms is broken down. This break down yields simpler and smaller substances from the more complex ones that were present in the organism.
Carbon is released from the carbohydrates and fats that were present in the organism. Nitrogen is released from the proteins that were present and phosphorus is released from the nucleic acids.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When the resting potential of the membrane is changed, the membrane becomes either more negative inside or less negative. This small deviation from the resting potential is called graded potential. A graded potential occurs when a stimulus triggers opening or closing of the mechanically gated  or ligand-gated channels present in the plasma membrane.

For example, the presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters in response to a nerve impulse. The neurotransmitter binds to receptors present in the plasma membrane of the postsynaptic neuron and triggers the opening of the ion channels to allow the inflow of particular ions to flow. The flow of ions changes the voltage across the membrane. This change in membrane voltage is a postsynaptic potential and is a type of graded potential.

Si Se Sumerge En Un Vaso De Agua Una Piedra, Un Bolígrafo Y Un Tajalapiz. ¿Que Sucede?.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Al introducir una piedra en agua, está se va al fondo del vaso, por que es más pesada que el agua

Al introducir un bolígrafo, este flota, por que es más liviano que el agua

Si se introduce en agua un tajalapiz se evidenciará un proceso de corrosión del metal

Debido a la reacción con el agua, sin embargo el efecto será más evidente si se agrega sal a la mezcla
