Which choice represents transport proteins in a neuron?
a. Voltage-gated channels and passive transporters
b. Passive transporters and sodium-potassium cotransporters
c. Sodium-potassium cotransporters, passive transporters, and voltage-gated channels
d. Voltage-gated channels and passive transporters
e. Sodium-potassium cotransporters and voltage-gated channels
Option a and d are same but incorrect as there is no passive transporters are involved so first four options are incorrect and correct option is option e "Sodium-potassium.....................................voltage gated channel"
Correct option e, Na-K co-transporters are involved and voltage gated Ca channel and ATPs are used in this process and no passive transporters.

Action potentials do not occur in the soma of a neuron because a.it lacks voltage gated sodium channels b.it lacks leaky potassium channels c.it lacks leaky sodium channels d.it lacks chemically gated channels
A mutation causes the incorporation of fewer voltage-gated sodium channels into the membrane of a neuron. a) What effect will this mutation have on synaptic potentials if this neuron receives excitatory input? b) What effect will this mutation have in the axon hillock area?
choices for A: Na+/K+ pumps, voltage gated K+ channels, voltage gated Ca+ channels, voltage gated Na+ channels choices for B: bidirectionally, unidirectionally choices for C: Na+/K+ pumps, voltage gated K+ channels, voltage gated Ca+ channels, voltage gated Na+ channels choices for D: Na+/K+ pumps, voltage gated K+ channels, voltage gated Ca+ channels, voltage gated Na+ channels Consider this graph illustrating the generation of an action potential across the plasma membrane of a stimulated neuron. +40 ACTION POTENTIAL plasma membrane potential...
Voltage-gated calcium channels are localized to which part of the neuron? axon terminal axon dendrites and soma all over the plasma membrane of the neuron
3. Many neurons contain "delayed K channels". Like voltage-gated Nat channels, these voltage-gated K+ channels open in response to a rise in membrane potential and then undergo inactivation. However, opening of the voltage-gated K channels lags behind opening of the voltage-gated Na channels. a) Why does neuronal function require the voltage-gated K channels to open more slowly than the voltage-gated Na channels? b) Compared to a neuron that lacks voltage-gated K channels, what differences would you expect in the shape...
An action potential does not move back wards in the axon because.. a.Voltage-gated sodium channels behind the action potential are inactivated. b. Potassium leak channels no longer let potassium ions through c. Voltage-gated sodium channels are open d. Mechanically-gated channels prevent outflow of sodium e. Voltage-gated potassium channels are closed

QUESTION 18 Gated ion channels include each of the following except O A. voltage-gated channels. OB. mechanosensitive channels. O C. ligand-gated channels. OD. potassium leak channels. E. All of these are types of gated channels
Q2. The Na+/K+ pump and voltage gated K+ channels both transport K+ across the membrane. A) Compare and contrast these two mechanisms for K+ transport indicating important functional and structural differences. B) Describe the process for putting a voltage gated K+ channel in the membrane starting at the ribosome and ending at the plasma membrane.
The pancreatic B cells that release insulin have potassium channels that close when ATP levels are high. How does closing potassium channels lead to exocytosis of insulin (Hint: it's the same mechanism as in neurons.) A Question 4 (2 points) Voltage-gated sodium channels need to inactivate, but voltage-gated potassium channels do not. Why? Question 5 (1 point) The convergence of two primary sensory neurons onto a secondary neuron is an example of temporal summation spatial summation
