What is the ion needed to initiate the release of acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft called?
The ion needed to initiate the release of acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft is calcium (Ca2+). When an action potential reaches the presynaptic terminal, it causes voltage-gated calcium channels to open, allowing calcium to enter and trigger the release of acetylcholine-containing vesicles.
What ion enters the axon nerve terminal to cause exocytosis of the neurotransmitter is called?
The ion that enters the axon nerve terminal to trigger neurotransmitter release is calcium (Ca2+). When an action potential reaches the nerve terminal, voltage-gated calcium channels open, allowing calcium ions to flow into the cell and initiate the process of exocytosis of neurotransmitter-containing vesicles.
What is bone synthesis?
Precipitation of the salt calcium phosphate among fibers of the protein type I collagen. This results from raising the concentrations of calcium ions and phosphate ions beyond their "solubility product" concentration. This occurs next to special cells called osteocytes, and not inside their cytoplasm. Nobody has discovered the mechanism by which osteocytes pump high concentrations of calcium ions and also high concentrations of phosphate ions into the same locations. One theory is that a special protein ("osteoid") binds to both calcium ions and phosphate ions, so that they precipitate at concentrations that would not be high enough to cause precipitation if no osteoid were present. If you know how osteocytes cause bone synthesis, then you should publish this information in a refereed journal, such as Nature. akharris@bio.unc.edu
This mineral works with calcium to build strong bones and teeth?
Phosphorus works with calcium to build strong bones and teeth by forming a mineral called hydroxyapatite, which is a key component of bone tissue. Both minerals are essential for bone health and work together to maintain bone strength and density.
The mixture of calcium and phosphorus that mineralizes bone is called?
The mixture of calcium and phosphorus that mineralizes bone is called hydroxyapatite. This compound gives bones their hardness and strength.
Why does water become hard?
Some water is called ''hard'' water because, of all the deposits in the water.
When naming the compound containing calcium and chlorine change the suffix of the anion's name to .?
ide
What is a sedimentary rock composed of calcium magnesium carbonate?
A sedimentary rock composed of calcium magnesium carbonate is known as dolomite. It forms from the mineral dolomite, which is similar to limestone but contains magnesium in addition to calcium. Dolomite often forms in marine environments through the replacement of limestone by magnesium-rich fluids.
What are the dissolved salts in the ocean called?
The salts are: sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium chlorides.
A solution containing concentrations of H plus ions higher than pure water are called what?
acids
When naming the compound containing calcium and chlorine chlorine change the suffix of the anion's name to?
The compound containing calcium and chlorine is called calcium chloride. When naming it, the suffix of the anion's name “chlorine” is changed to “-ide” to become chloride.
What is reducing the amount of calcium and magnesium the water?
A water-softening system can reduce the amount of calcium and magnesium in water through a process called ion exchange. In the ion exchange process, calcium and magnesium ions are exchanged for sodium ions, reducing the hardness of the water. This results in softer water that is less likely to cause limescale buildup in pipes and appliances.
What kind of chemicals melt ice?
These chemicals are called deicing substances: chlorides of sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium.
Does rainwater Not Contain Any Dissovled Minerals Is Called Hard Water?
No; hard water contain carbonates and sulfates of calcium and magnesium.
How does the permutit process work?
permutit is a process of reducing of temporary and permanent hardness of water .The naturally occuring is called zeolite. permtit is artificial compound.when hardawater is passed through zeolite the calcium and magnesium salts reacts with sodium zeolite and forms calcium and magnesium zeolites.
What are the ingredients in acid indigestion tablets?
Indigestion tablets contain three main ingredients, these are: sodium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate and light magnesium carbonate. These are called antacids.
What is the layer of the moon composed of silica magnesium and iron?
The layer of moon that is composed of magnesium, iron,silicon (not silica) is called Crust.It is outermost layer of the moon. It also contains Calcium,Aluminum and Oxygen.
