Evaluate the effectiveness of legislation and facilities establishment in preventing further coral reef loss.

Legislation in some areas has been effective in preventing further coral reef loss. In Australia, zoning laws require individuals who have collector’s licenses to collect only in certain areas. Collectors have been able to gather 45 to 50 metric tons of material with no measurable effect on coral reefs. Facilities have been established to measure cyanide levels in live reef fish. The percentage of fish testing positive for cyanide has declined from 80% to 30% in the past five years. Facilities have been able to make a positive impact on coral reef preservation efforts.

Explanation:

the answer that best describes the relative refractory period in the neuron is the resting membrane potential is restored, but concentrations of sodium and potassium are not restored to their original state.

the refractory period is the time during which another stimulus given to the neuron will not lead to a second potential. thus, because na+ channels are inactivated during this time, additional depolarizing stimuli do not lead to new action potentials.
