Answer:

C. Synaptic vesicles release acetylcholine molecules.

Explanation:

A neuromuscular junction is the junction between the terminal part of a motor axon and a motor plate (or neuromuscular synapse), which is the region of the plasma membrane of a muscle fiber (the sarcolemma) where the nerve and muscle meet allowing to trigger muscle contraction.

At the neuromuscular junction, the neurotransmitter used is acetylcholine, which is released by the synaptic vesicles at the beginning of the signal transmission process through the neuromuscular junction. The nerve fiber branches off at the end to form the end plate. which invaginates into the muscle fiber, but rests entirely on the outside of the membrane.

Answer:

The correct answer is A acetylcholine binds to a receptor protein on the motor end plate

Explanation:

The neurotransmitter acetylcholine is released by the motor neuron during the transmission of signals across a neuromuscular junction.

         The released acetylcholine then diffuses the synaptic cleft and binds to the receptor protein present on the membrane of muscle fibre.

         This ultimately result in the influx of sodium ion inside the muscle cell thereby causing depolarization to generate an action potential.

How does industrial agriculture promote farming techniques that are ecologically destructive?
Tcecarenko [31]

Industrial agriculture promote farming techniques that are ecologically destructive by using fertilizers and using processed feeds to feed the animals. Fertilizers contain harmful chemicals that may not be seen on the plants since its main function is to kill the pests that eats the plants. What makes it destructive is when the particles of the fertilizer is mixed with water and then leached into the soil into the water table. The once pure water table is now contaminated. The accumulation of various chemicals from the pesticide can cause the death of aquamarine life and even humans. Also, it can destroy the components of the soil overtime because it can interact with other compounds found in the soil to create a harmful product.

In figure 28-7, what information indicates that meiosis takes place during the jellyfish's reproductive cycle?
omeli [17]
By using the legend below the diagram, you can assume that Phase 1 indicates that meiosis has occurred because of the color of the arrow. The dark gray indicates haploid, and haploid is the result of meiosis. Diploid is the result of mitosis. 

Another indication is the presence of sex cells or gametes in Phase 1. Meiosis produces gametes and in phase 1, you can see that egg cells and sperm cells were produced.
