Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Sinoatrial node is termed as pacemaker of the heart because it initiates the heartbeat. It is the prime nodal center of heartbeat trigger firing. Such firing mechanism is done by the specialized cells in the SA node and its membrane potential. The change in the pacemaker potential of the SA node brings the heart rhythm a cyclic than a long refractory period in neurons.

Explain down bellow what happens to the cell in pictures not in words: Decreased pH in mitochondria Increased ATP Decreased pH in cytosol Increased hydrolysis Decreasing glycogen and triglycerides Increased MAP kinase activity Poor ion transport → For each one:→ What normally happens?→ What is wrong now?→ How does it mess up the cell?
1.) Community Diversity: The brown and orange line represent two different plant communities. a. Which color represents the community with a higher species richness? b. Which color represents the community with a higher species evenness? Relative abundance 0.1 0.04 0.001 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 Rank abundance c. What is the maximum value of the Simpson's diversity index (remember, Simpson's index is D = p², Simpson's diversity index is 1-D)? d. If the Simpson's diversity index equals 1, what does that mean about the number of species and their relative abundance within community being assessed?
