Neurotransmitters and Mechanisms for Their Removal
A neuron is at rest when not sending signals. The resting membrane potential of a neuron is approximately -70millivolt. This indicates that the inside of the neuron is approximately 70millivolt less than the outside. When the neuron is at rest, there is more sodium outside the neuron and more ions of potassium inside the neuron.…

Ring of Fire and Recent Tectonics Movements
The Ring of Fire area is a dangerous territory that significantly impacts the tectonic activities of the whole Earth. From the scientific perspective, many plates have irregular positions and are at risk of collision. The plates subduction not only causes massive earthquakes but also provokes global climate change and dangerous tectonic shifts. Scientists are responsible…

The Nutritive Value of Ruminant Feeds
Abstract In this paper, we experimented to assess the nutritive value of ruminant feeds. To do so, we analyzed the chemical compositions of dry matter, crude protein, acid detergent fibre, neutral detergent fibre, ash, and ether extract. Our findings revealed that ryegrass had the highest concentrations of dry matter (95.46), neutral detergent fibre (68.25), and…
