    tittle: The bouncing ball efficiency when bouncing a ball at different heights Energy cannot be destroyed or created it can only be transferred in to different types of energy like kinetic, heat, light, electrical, chemical, elastic potential, gravitational potential, thermal, nuclear and sound energy. When calculating energy, you would work in measurement like joules, kilojoules and millijoules. There are many types of energy like kinetic energy which is when a object is moving like a car…

    Acetylcholine has two types of receptors: muscarinic and nicotinic, these receptors are functionally and structurally different. Nicotinic receptors are ionotropic, meaning that ions flow through it when acetylcholine binds to it. It acts as a channel for the ions that cross it, especially sodium, and this causes the depolarization of the cell. There are two types of nicotinic receptors formed by different subunits, N1 are found in the neuromuscular junctions allowing muscle movement, and N2 is…

    Stimulus Artifact Essay

    • 4 Pages

    Stimulus artifact is a signal that is produced due to an electric pulse present between two electrodes, which is recorded using the cathode ray oscilloscope (Johnson and Byrne, 2003). As the stimulus intensity begins to increase, the stimulus artifact also increases (Johnson and Byrne, 2003). Thus, the change in stimulus artifact allows the compound action potential (CAP) to appear (Johnson and Byrne, 2003). As it can be seen in the figures there’s a delay in time between the stimulus artifact…

    hillock and initial segment where action potentials begin (an area called the “trigger zone”). Sometimes axons have side branches called collaterals, which usually branch off at a 90 ° angle and allow a neuron to communicate with many cells at once. Each axon branch ends in a thin extension series called telodendria, which ends at the synaptic terminals.

    The authors created the Accelerated Sensor of Action Potentials 1 (ASAP 1) using a green fluorescent protein source on the extracellular side of the plasma membrane to highlight the membrane potential changes as demonstrated by the fluctuation in the fluorescent brightness. Neuronal action potentials generated are monitored up to 200 Hz in frequency using this device. The general purpose of this experiment was to further understand information processing in the brain and how brain activity is…

    devices, an angled ramp is used to bring waves to a height where they can drop into an elevated (relative to sea level) reservoir right behind the plate. The difference in height between sea level and the captured water within the reservoirs creates potential energy that can be harnessed kinetically by draining the water through low head turbines back to sea.…
