Discover what sets muscle cells apart from nerve cells in the complex world of cellular biology. Our video zeroes in on gene expression explaining how it's the key difference between these two cell types. Equip yourself with the knowledge to better understand cellular function and diversity.
Na+ Channels: Open at Resting Potential or Threshold?
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the mechanics of voltage-gated Na+ channels and their role in neuron activity. This video breaks down key neuronal terms like resting potential and threshold to explain precisely when these channels open. You'll come away understanding that voltage-gated Na+ channels open at the threshold state initiating an action potential.
Balancing Act: How Negative Feedback Loops Maintain Harmony
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the concept of negative feedback loops in biological systems, where balance is maintained by counteracting changes. Explore the four key components: Stimulus, Sensor, Control Center, and Effector, through examples like blood sugar regulation. Uncover how these loops play a crucial role in keeping our body systems in harmony.
