Aneuron is stimulated with an electric pulse. the action potential is detected at a point 3.70 cm down the axon 0.0052 s later. when the action potential is detected 7.20 cm from the point of stimulation, the time required is 0.0063 s. what is the speed of the electric pulse along the axon? (why are two measurements needed instead of only one? )
The earth consists of a variety of different organisms. despite their diversity, however, some similarities on the structural and metabolic levels may be seen. these similarities can be attributed to a. similarities among organisms in their proteins and nucleic acids. b. the ability of organisms to readily adapt to sudden environmental changes. c. similarities in organisms' habitats and niches. d. the ability of all organisms to interbreed and produce new species.
