In what way does the interior surface of a cell membrane of a resting (nonconducting) neuron differ from the external environmen
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer: option C) negatively charged and contains less sodium

Explanation:

In the absence of any stimulus, a neuron is said to be resting. During this time, more positively charged potassium ions (K+) than sodium ions (Na+) occupy the interior of its cell membrane, whereas more sodium ions than potassium occupies the exterior - making the cell membrane to be electrically Polarized with net positive charge outside and a net negative charge inside the cell membrane.

Thus, the interior is negatively charged and contains less sodium ions

What are similarities and differences between the organization and structure of DNA in bacterial cells and in human cells?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Both human and bacteria cells contain DNA and both have a outer membrane that controls how materials come into and leave the cell.

Predominantly multicellular not in bacteria but in human body

*Cell contains a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles not in bacteria but in human body..

*DNA occurs in a circular form* in bacteria only..

* Ribosomes size in bacteria 70s and in human body 80s

*Capable of growth at temperatures greater than 80 C only in bacteria

*His tone proteins present in cell only in human body cells

During dehydration synthesis is 42 water molecules were made how many monosaccharides were joined together to make the complex c
netineya [11]

Answer:

43 monosaccharides will be joined together to make the complex carbohydrate.

Explanation:

The complex carbohydrates are synthesized by the joining of monosaccharide residues by glycosidic linkages.One glycosidic linkage joins two monosaccharide residues by the elimination of one molecule of water.

  In other words it can be said that elimination of one water molecule joins two monosaccharides.By the same way elimination of 42 molecules of water will result in the joining of 43 monosaccaride residues.
