A is the answer I’m sure because I just took the test
- The balance between the chemical and electrical forces pushing potassium through potassium channels and across the membrane is represented by the potassium equilibrium potential.
- At the equilibrium potential of potassium, which is -80mV, there is no net movement of potassium ions.
<h3>At potassium's equilibrium potential, what happens?</h3>
- At equilibrium, the electrical potential gradient across the membrane precisely balances the gradient of K+ concentration.
- There is no net migration of K+ from one side to the other, despite the fact that K+ ions continue to traverse the membrane via channels.
<h3>How does potassium diffuse in order to influence the membrane potential?</h3>
- Potassium ions will flow down their concentration gradient, or towards the exterior of the cell, because the membrane is permeable to them.
- Although the membrane is not permeable to sodium, there is a concentration gradient that favors sodium diffusion in the opposite direction.

Answer:
In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.

Answer:
Zebra mussels are spread from one body of water to another by natural flow, carried on the feathers or feet of birds, or by humans in bait buckets or on boats.
