A neuron receives signals from neighboring cells through branched, cellular extensions called dendrites.The neuron then propagates an electrical signal down a specialized axon extension from the basal pole to the synapse, where neurotransmitters are released to propagate the signal to another neuron or effector cell (e.g., muscle or gland).
Semidiagrammatic. z.p. Zona pellucida. p.gl. Polar bodies. a. Two-cell stage. b. Four-cell stage. c. Eight-cell stage. d, e. Morula stage. A polar body is a small haploid cell that is formed at the same time as an egg cell during oogenesis, but generally does not have the ability to be fertilized. It is named from its polar position in the egg.
At the negative ends of the aster centrosomes will nucleate (form a nucleus) and anchor to the microtubules. At the positive end, polymerization of the aster will occur. Cortical dynein, a motor protein, moves along the microtubules of the cell and plays a key role in the growth and inhibition of aster microtubules.
A polar organelle is a structure at a specialised region of the bacterial polar membrane that is associated with the flagellar apparatus. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This flagellum-associated structure can easily be distinguished from the other membrane regions in ultrathin sections of embedded bacteria by electron microscopy when the cell membrane is ...
When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also
The polar bear, crying, bubble baths and pancakes act as distractions. The only logical response is that no, you cannot guess a cohesive riddle based on those clues.
Polarized membranes are key cellular components that aid in facilitating compartmentalization, cell-to-cell communication, and signaling. Cells actively utilize polarized membranes to form and maintain electrochemical gradients and regulate both intracellular and extracellular environments.
Polar auxin transport (PAT) is directional and active flow of auxin molecules through the plant tissues. The flow of auxin molecules through the neighboring cells is driven by carriers (type of membrane transport protein) in the cell-to-cell fashion (from one cell to other cell and then to the next one) and the direction of the flow is determined by the localization of the carriers on the ...
