The result consistent with the intestine actively transporting glucose from mucosal to serosal side, with a critical need for an apical sodium/potassium ATPase is that the glucose concentrations are higher on the serosal than mucosal at the end of the experiment unless ouabain is applied to the apical side.

The small intestine epithelium is electrogenic in its glucose absorption. The Na+/glucose cotransporter (SGLT1), although glucose transporter type 2 (GLUT2) may also be involved, is the main pathway for the transportation of dietary glucose from the intestinal lumen into enterocytes.

The steroid hormone ouabain is an alpha-L-rhamnosyl cardenoloide that has undergone multiple hydroxylation. It attaches to and prevents the sodium/potassium-ATPase in the plasma membrane. The binding reduces the enzyme's activity, which modifies the cell's transmembrane electrochemical potential.

The mutation rate is the probability of a single gene mutating in an offspring bug.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A mutation is any alteration in the genetic sequence of the genome of a particular organism. Mutations in the germline (i.e., gametes) can pass to the next generation, thereby these mutations can increase their frequency in the population if they are beneficial or 'adaptive' for the organism in the environment in which the organism lives (in this case, an insect/bug). The mutation rate can be defined as the probability of mutations in a single gene/<em>locus</em>/organism over time. Mutation rates are highly variable and they depend on the organism/cell that suffers the mutation (e.g., prokaryotic cells are more prone to suffer mutations compared to eukaryotic cells), type of mutations (e.g., point mutations, fragment deletions, etc), type of genetic sequence (e.g., mitochondrial DNA sequences are more prone to suffer mutations compared to nuclear DNA), type of cell (multicellular organisms), stage of development, etc. Thus, the mutation rate is the frequency by which a genetic sequence changes from the wild-type to a 'mutant' variant, which is often indicated as the number of mutations <em>per</em> round of replication, <em>per</em> gamete, <em>per</em> cell division, etc. In a single gene sequence, the mutation rate can be estimated as the number of <em>de novo</em> mutations per nucleotide <em>per</em> generation. For example, in humans, the mutation rate ranges from 10⁻⁴ to 10⁻⁶ <em>per </em>gene <em>per</em> generation.
