What else can I help you with?
The most distinguishing characteristic of muscle tissue is?
Excitability = the ability to receive and respond to a stimulus Contractility = the ability to shorten Extensibility = the ability to be stretched Elasticity = the ability to resume normal length after contraction or having been stretched.
How do jellyfish respond to stimuli?
When a Stingray reacts to stimulus it discharges stinging cells. The stinging cells penetrate the skin and inject a poisonous venom.
What two events render a sement of an axon temporarily insensitive to another stimulus?
The two events that render a segment of an axon temporarily insensitive to another stimulus are the absolute refractory period and the relative refractory period. During the absolute refractory period, the axon cannot respond to any stimulus regardless of strength, while during the relative refractory period, the axon can only respond to a stronger-than-normal stimulus.
What are the four main special functional abilities of muscle that are the basis for muscle response?
Muscle tissue has four main properties: Excitability (ability to respond to stimuli) Contractibility (ability to contract) Extensibility (ability to be stretched without tearing) Elasticity (ability to return to its normal shape).
Is REM an altered state of consciousness or normal waking consciousness?
REM is a stage of sleep, characterized by rapid eye movements, that occurs when we are dreaming. In that sense it is an altered state, although perfectly normal.
Which cell causes cancer-Cell 1- DNA altered w product present in normal amounts but not functioning Cell 2- DNA altered w no gene productor 3-DNA altered w normal gene production but overproduced?
Stem Cells cause Cancer!!
How is a reflex action different from a normal response to a stimulus?
A reflex action is an automatic, involuntary response to a stimulus that bypasses the brain, whereas a normal response to a stimulus involves conscious thought and decision-making processes in the brain. Reflex actions occur more quickly and are essential for survival, while normal responses can involve cognitive processing and decision-making.
Is a flip summon a normal summon?
No, it is not. Flip Summons and Normal Summons are different things. Some cards can respond to both, but some can only respond to Normal Summons, and if so, cannot be used against Flip Summons.
During which period can a second action potential be initiated by a larger than normal stimulus?
The period following the absolute refractory period is where a second action potential can be initiated by a larger than normal stimulus. This phase is known as the relative refractory period.
How are a stimulus and a response related?
They are directly related. Homeostasis is an environments ability to maintain stbility in a regular cycle, but when something new is introduced, the environment is able to respond to a new occurance, or stimulus, and responds in order to survive and return to maintaining a normal cycle. Without response to a new stimulus, environments would be unable to maintain homeostasis and would die out!
Can you give two functions of calcium?
Calcification of bones and teeth-important 4 blood clotting and normal heart excitability and contractility and it z used in treatment of allergy as it decreases cell membrane permeability
What is the supranormal period cardiovascular?
Supranormal Period (SNP) is the period during which a slightly smaller than normal stimulus can elicit a propagated response, although the amplitude of the action potential is reduced compared to normal. I'm not sure either as of to how the mechanism of this allows a stimulus lower than threshold can elicit this response.
