Action potential . B. Actual recordings of action potentials are often distorted compared to the schematic view because of variations in electrophysiological techniques used to make the recording
An action potential is a "spike" of positive and negative ionic discharge that travels along the membr more

Verbascum thapsus
Verbascum thapsus (; Great Mullein or Common Mullein) is a species of mullein native to Europe , northern Africa and Asia , and introduced in the Americas and Australia .
It is a hairy biennial plant that can grow to 2 m or more tall. Its small yellow flowers are dens more
Equipartition theorem peptide . The jittery motion is random and complex, and the energy of any particular atom can fluctuate wildly. Nevertheless, the equipartition theorem allows the average kinetic energy of each atom to be computed, as well as the average potential energies of many vibrationa more
Cyclol , mainly because it eliminates the resonance stabilization of the peptide bond . This reaction was the basis of Dorothy Wrinch's cyclol model of proteins.
The cyclol hypothesis is the first structural model of a folded , globular protein . The same studies appeared to show that the mo more
