Voltage-gated channels contain charged protein domains, which are sensitive to changes in membrane potential. By responding to a threshold in the membrane potential, these voltage sensors trigger the opening of the channels. Which of the following best describes the behavior of a population of channels exposed to such a threshold?
a. Some channels remain closed and some open completely
b. all channels open completely
c. all channels open partly, to the same degree
d. all channels open partly, each to a different degree

Option A

Explanation:

The opening and closing of the voltage gated channels depends on the type of the receptors on it. The cells responds according to the receptors found on the cell membrane.

According to the voltage gated channels the domains that are sensitive towards the gated channels are he particular neurotransmitter can have different receptors on them.

An excitatory postsynaptic potential causes channels to move in and shows excitatory response.

Whereas in case of the Inhibitory postsynaptic potential the channels are closed and they show inhibitory response.

Hence, some of the channels remains closed and some of them remains open after signals.

both male and female gametes are produced by meiosis of the germ cells. therefore, both male and female gametes are haploid. one male and one female gamete unite during the fertilization to form the diploid zygote. in seed bearing plants, pollen grain is the male gametophyte, which produces sperm cells.
