Answer:
Electrical gradient.
Explanation:
Ions DO NOT move in Ion channels by simple diffusion because most ion channels can be:
I) selective of ions pass through it.
II) operating on a "open and close" principle. Where it opens or close on its own accord OR does so ONLY when induced by a specific influence like change in voltage of ion channels.
IN ADDITION to the concentration gradient, ELECTRICAL GRADIENTS (change in membrane voltage) affects the movement of ions through ion channels
Aphotic zone: It is an inky darkness that occupies the great bulk of the ocean.
Photic zone: its a surface layer that receives sunlight.
Colonists made soap from an animal fat and potassium hydroxide. In interaction of fat and alkali there is a hydrolysis reaction. At the same time salts of a potassium and alcohols are formed.
Answer:
The correct answer is "strengths: inexpensive, easy to culture, short life cycle, large number of offspring; weaknesses: invertebrate model, some diseases such as immunological cannot be modelled, anatomical features are very different from humans"
Explanation:
The fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> is one of the most used animal model for genetic and biomedical studies. There are many advantages of using Drosophila as model, including that it is very inexpensive to handle, it is easy to culture, it has a short life cycle allowing to observe the changes in phenotype very quickly and its large number of offspring allows to include several repetitions per trait in a study. However, there are some weaknesses of using Drosophila to study human biology. First, obviously the fruit fly is very different from humans, it is an invertebrate and its anatomical features are very different, which makes impossible to model some disorders such as immunological diseases.
