1. Action potential reaches the axon terminal and depolarizes it.

2. Depolarization opens voltage-gated calcium channels, enabling influx of Ca into the neuron.

3. Calcium binds to specialized proteins on vesicles (containing pre-made acetylcholine) and triggers them to fuse with the neuron membrane at the synapse.

4. Exocytosis of acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft occurs.

5. Acetylcholine diffuses across the synapse and binds to nicotinic receptors on the end plate of the myocyte.

6. Activated nicotinic receptors, themselves ion channels, cause cation influx into the myocyte and generate an end plate potential. This eventually gives rise to the full depolarization within the myocyte that enables contraction.

Which enzymes in the citric acid cycle catalyze oxidative decarboxylation reactions?
dlinn [17]

In the citric acid cycle (also known as Kreb’s Cycle), the enzyme that catalyzes oxidative decarboxylation reactions is α-Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. The oxidative decarboxylation reaction is the irreversible stage of the citric acid cycle; it generates NADH (equivalent of 2.5 ATP), and regenerates the 4C chain (CoA is excluded).

Consider a population of wildflowers in which the frequency of the red allele cr is p = 0.7. what is the frequency of the white
anygoal [31]
I) Alleles is the alternative form of a gene or in other terms the variant form of a gene. If there are two alleles at a locus p and q are used to represent their frequencies. Frequencies of all alleles in a population will add up to 1. 
Therefore, in this case if red allele CW is p=0.7, then the frequency of the white allele in this population (q) is 0.3.

ii) From the punnet square the expected genotypes frequencies in the offspring generation will be 0.49 CRCR (red flowers, o.42 CRCW (pink flowers) and 0.09 CWCW (white flowers).

sergij07 [2.7K]
Prescription medication is the least likely to affect the results and interpretation of a functional MRI.

Here are some of the factors that is most likely to affect the results of MRI :

- Caffeinated soda. Caffeinated soda tend to constrict the blood vessels in the brain, which will affect MRI results.
- cancerous growth, will create a huge shadow on MRI results
- sprained ankle, especially if it was fixed with metal bandage, will cause harm during MRI
