The correct answer is "calcium, sodium, potassium, and other minerals".
The term "essential nutrients" refers to the group of nutrients which are necessary for the normal functioning of human physiology but they cannot be synthesized by the human body. This means that these nutrients need to be obtained from external sources. This category of nutrients is comprised of some amino acids, two fatty acids, some vitamins and minerals.
Glucose and cellulose are not part of the essential nutrients. Also, only 9 of the 20 protein-producing amino acids cannot be synthesized by the human body and are therefore considered essential.

You can measure and describe climate by walking out the door and describing current atmospheric conditions. true or False
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The answer is "False."

Explanation:

The sentence above is stating that you can<u> "measure"</u> and describe climate by "walking out the door and describing current atmospheric conditions." This is "false" because climate cannot be measured by qualitative descriptions or subjectively. Measuring it entails quantity which is objective in nature. An example of this is by using "thermometers" or "rain gauges."

Although you can describe the atmospheric condition or the climate just by walking out the door,<em> you can never measure it.</em>

Thus, this explains the answer.

The Na+/K+ ATPase pump is an example of active transport, which requires energy to move substances from a higher concentration t
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Active transport is one of the two major kinds of transport (the other being passive transport). Active transport involves moving substances against their concentration gradient i.e. from where they are low in concentration to where they are high in concentration. Hence, energy input in form of ATP is required by the cell to make this occur.

As stated in this question, the Na+/K+ (sodium-pottasium) ATPase pump is an example of active transport, which requires energy to move sodium ions. However, in active transport, substances are moved from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and not otherwise as depicted in this question, hence, it is FALSE.
