The all-or-none phenomenon as applied to nerve conduction states that the whole nerve cell must be stimulated for conduction to

take place. True or False

Answer:True

Explanation:

Nerve impulse must reach a certain threshold in a neuron before action potential can be generated to intiate conduction of action potential.

Therefore if mutiple impulses are generated and these are not upto thresholds , no matter how strong the stimulI are-NO ACTION POTENTIAL WILL BE GENERATED.

THIS IS ALL OR NONE PRINCIPLE

The all or none hypotheses can be best explain with flushing of the water closet after using it. If required volume of water is not pumped into the water closet storage above, no matter how long the handle is push, FLUSHING WILL NOT TAKE PLACE.Thus the threshold volume of water must be met.

The distant ancestors of tigers may have had bodies without stripes. Use the theory of natural selection to explain how tigers m
Degger [83]

The tigers have stripes because it is advantageous for them because they are an ambush predator and need good camouflage. The stripes are excellent camouflage for places that are shady, so the tiger can easily get close to its prey and attack it.

There's a very big possibility that the distant ancestors of the tigers did not had stripes. The reasons for that are different environment, but also that the stripes are actually a very rare type of pattern among the felidae family members.

As the environment started changing, the tigers needed to adapt to it, so they also needed a different camouflage. As some tigers in the population started to develop stripes, they were better hunters, thus were stronger, and seen as suitable mates for the females, as it would provide an offspring with the advantage that the male tiger has. Through this selection in the breeding process of mates that have advantageous camouflage patterns, the stripes were becoming more and more present, to the point where they totally pushed aside and eliminated the previously dominant camouflage pattern.

Which factors affect the rate of deposition? Check all that apply. color of the sediment density of the sediment size of the sed
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

density of the sediment

size of the sediment

velocity of the agent of erosion

Explanation:

Deposition can be defined as the process of building up of sediment from chemical processes because the forces which are responsible for transporting Sediment are no longer sufficient enough to overcome the forces of gravity which is why density of the sediment, size of the sediment as well as velocity of the agent of erosion tend to affect

The rate of deposition due to the fact that

Larger and denser particles are heavier and land first before, less dense particles which cause round pieces of sediment settle more quickly than flat pieces .

Hence,density of the sediment,size of the sediment as well as velocity of the agent of erosion will often affect the rate deposition.
