formation of an action potential can be divided into five steps. (1) A stimulus from a sensory cell or another neuron causes the target cell to depolarize toward the threshold potential. (2) If the threshold of excitation is reached‚ all Na+ channels open and the membrane depolarizes. (3) At the peak action potential‚ K+ channels open and K+ begins to leave the cell. At the same time‚ Na+ channels close. (4) The membrane becomes hyperpolarized as K+ ions continue to leave the cell. The hyperpolarized

048: Problem Set Questions 1. Given that cell A has significantly more nongated K+ channels than cell B‚ which cell has the larger resting membrane potential? Explain. If the permeability to K is higher in A than in B‚ then the resting membrane potential (rmp) will be closer to the equilibrium potential in cell A‚ which means the rmp will be more negative in cell A than in cell B; or in other words‚ the potential difference will be LARGER in cell A. 2.

INTRODUCTION: In biology‚ osmosis is defined as the diffusion of solvent molecules (usually water molecules) across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration. Osmosis is of great importance in biological processes where the solvent is water. The transport of water and other molecules across biological membranes is essential to many processes in living organisms. The pressure exerted

movement of water in the cell. Independent variable is the factor that affects the value of variables dependent to it. In osmosis lab‚ the independent variables are the potato and onions. The dependent variable is the variable whose value is measured to determine the extent of the effect of another variable to it‚ as in an experiment. In osmosis lab‚ the dependent variable is the length of the potato. The controlled variables are the amount of water‚ amount of salt‚ and the size of the potato. If the

The Irish potato clones were certainly low on genetic variation‚ so when the environment changed and a potato disease swept through the country in the 1840s‚ the potatoes (and the people who depended upon them) were devastated.Thesis: The Irish Potato Famine devastated the Irish population and economy as well as sowing the seeds of rebellion against England. 1st Point: Ireland dependent on potato • Families spent most time on cash crops to pay rent • Potato easy to grow‚ nutricious

the osmosis reaction in a potato with salt and water. In cooking cooks will soak their cut potato’s in water if they will not use them immediately. This allows the potato’s to be used later without turning color. The experiment shows the flow of water through the membranes of the potato with salt over a period of four hours. II. Objective: The reaction of the potato to the side submerged in water and the half excavated with salt. III. Raw Materials: Potato‚ Salt‚ Water‚ clear container‚ knife

He had risked his life‚ both by going there without permission‚ and by taking the potato. But it’s so very important to him‚ so he did it anyway.
