A cell membrane pump helps human cells to maintain a relatively constant sodium and potassium concentration.
<u>Option: A</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Sodium potassium pump is a plasma membrane protein that utilizes energy ATP — Triphosphate Adenosine turning into ADP — Adenosine Diphosphate to deliver intracellular and extracellular sodium (NA+) and potassium (K+) ions sequentially. The purpose of this entire mechanism is to preserve cell equilibrium.
The extracellular medium has a greater concentration of Na while the K concentration of the intracellular fluid is lower. Proteins trap sodium ions in the cytoplasm and pump them out from the cells to preserve cell stability while preserving concentrations. Within the cells proteins inject potassium ions into the cell.

oh wow u are very prettttttttty
Cell is the living blocks of life. They form the structural
and the functional unit of our life, that is a group of cell
forms tissue, a group of tissue forms organ, a group of
organs form organ system and finally a group of organ
systems form a complete organism / individual.
And there are two types of cell
1/ eukaryotic cell ( consists of the plant cell and the animal
cell )
2/ prokaryotic cell (... I don't know man )
Answer:
in asexual reproduction the offsprings are genetically identical to the parents.
Explanation:
Answer:
a. Cells grow and develop during interphase. Cells reproduce during the mitotic phase.
Explanation:
Cell cycle refers to the series of processes that leads to the growth/development and division of a cell. The cell cycle uses MITOSIS for cell growth. Mitosis comprises of two distinct stages namely: INTERPHASE AND MITOTIC PHASE. The interphase is referred to as the resting phase of the cell in which the cell grows and develops.
On the other hand, MITOTIC PHASE is the stage where the actual division of the nucleus (karyokinesis) and cytoplasm (cytokinesis) generally called CELL DIVISION occurs. Therefore, the cell reproduces i.e. one cell forming two, in the mitotic phase.
