The arrival of an action potential at the end of the presynaptic neurone causes Ca²⁺ protein channels to open Ca²⁺ ions diffuse into the synaptic knob by facilitated diffusionCa^...

If blood vessels are damaged, such as by a cut in the skin, blood clots to perform two functions. 1) to reduce or stop blood loss2) to prevent the entry of pathogens
This triggers a cascade of events...

There are many similarities between these two cells but some important differences which are specific to plant cells. Some of the shared organelles include:Cell Membrane - made of a lipid bilayer which pr...

Will be easier to explain with whiteboard!a) Let y = arcsin x. sin y = x cos y dy/dx = 1 dy/dx = 1/(cos y) dy/dx = 1/(√ (1 - sin²y)) dy/dx = 1/(√( 1 - x²)) as required.b) 4 - 2x - x<...

Osmosis is the net movement of water from an area of high water potential to low water potential through a semi-permeable membrane, while diffusion is the net movement of any liquid or gas from an area of...
