A theta wave is a type of brain wave that is associated with sleep spindles. Brain waves is defined as the regular arrangement of electrical activity that takes place in the brain. Such brain waves are associated with behaviors, thought, and emotions.

There are five types of brain waves that are ranging from lower frequency level to a higher frequency level. They are as follows delta, alpha, theta, beta, and gamma brain wave.

Further explanation:

Sleep involves the recurring state of mind or an inconsistent state of being. These phases can be differentiated from one another. Sleep is divided into two general phases, such as,

(i) Rapid eye movement (REM): This stage is an active period of sleep characterized by the intense activity of the brain.

In these stages, the waves originating from the brain are fast and desynchronized similar to those waves occurs in the waking stage.

(ii) Non-rapid eye movement (NREM): This stage is associated with the reduction in the physiological activity of the brain. This stage is further divided into three stages on the basis of patterns of brain wave.

The first stage of sleep takes place between sleep and wakefulness. It is a period in which a person can drift to sleep.

In this stage, the process of respiration and heartbeat slows down. Muscle tension and body temperature decreases during this phase.

This stage is associated with the alpha and theta waves according to their brain activity. Theta waves have low frequency and high amplitude than alpha waves.

In stage 2, the body is in a deep relaxation state, and the activity of the brain is dominated by theta wave. The activity of the mind is also interrupted by brief bursts of activity called sleep spindles.

It is defined as a quick burst of high-frequency brain waves that is essential for learning and memory.

why is it important that ions being transported across a cell membrane be shielded from the interior of the lipid bilayer
Degger [83]

The answer is The ions are protected inside the lipid bilayer so that it is not pushed back to a more polar environment.

The lipid bilayer is mainly composed of lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol), and is also composed of proteins such as transporters.

The ions (which are polar) can not cross directly through the lipids because they will repel them due to their apolarity. On the other hand they can easily pass through protein channels that will protect them during their passage (the proteins are more polar than lipids).

tresset_1 [31]

Hello. This question is incomplete. Also, you forgot to show the flowchart. The flowchart is attached below and the full question is:

The flowchart below shows the three generations of a cross between a pea plant that has yellow pods and a pea plant that has green pods. Green pods are the dominant trait. The flowchart is missing the labels that describe the traits.

In which squares should the phrase “Green pods” appear?

1.A and D  2.B and E  3.A,C and D  4.A,B,C,D and E

Answer:

3.A,C and D

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the flowchart shows the crossing of a pea plant with dominant features (green pods - AA) and a pea plant with recessive features (yellow features - aa). The crossing between plants with AA and aa alleles generates a completely Aa population, which in this case, has the dominant characteristic, that is, it has green pods. This is because the "Aa" alleles are called heterozygous and develop the dominant characteristic.

As we can see in the flowchart, the crossing between the two pea plants generated an offspring that is identified by table C, as we know this offspring has green pods and in the flowchart it is represented by a grayish rectangle. Therefore, we can say that the other gray rectangles represent pea plants with green pods, which are rectangles A, C and D.

When the blood becomes acidic (acidosis) and bicarbonate ions have been depleted, new bicarbonate ions must be generated in the
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

c. Glutamine is metabolized by deamination, oxidation, and acidification.

Explanation:

Bicarbonate ions are an important part of bicarbonate buffer system which helps to maintain the pH of blood. Whenever blood starts to become acidic, bicarbonate ions increase to neutralize its effect. Their concentration can be increased by many mechanisms, for example tubular reabsorption.

However, glutamine catabolism does not replenish bicarbonate ions, in fact it does the exact opposite. Kidney generates ammonium ions by catabolism of glutamine which are excreted in the urine. This process also facilitates the excretion of bicarbonate ions.
