Explain how the electrical model for the control of cellvolume

Chemistry

Answer:

Control of Cell Volume and Membrane Potential Basic

Basic problem

• The cell is full of components like Proteins, ions, fats, etc.

• Ordinarily, these would cause huge osmotic pressures, sucking water into the cell.

• The cell membrane has no structural strength, and the cell would burst.

Basic solution to the problem above

• Cells carefully regulate their intracellular ionic concentrations in order, to ensure that no osmotic pressures arise

• Consequently, the major ions Na+, K+, Cl- and Ca2+ in the cell have different concentrations in the extracellular and intracellular environments.

• And thus a voltage difference arises across the cell membrane.

Essentially two different kinds of cells: excitable and nonexcitable.

• All cells have a resting membrane potential, but only excitable cells modulate it actively.

Explanation:

In the case where there is a poisoning of the Na-K exchange pump.

Inhibition kicks off.

The pump requires binding by Na+ , K+ and ATP for its operation. Therefore , if the concentration of any of these substances is too low, the pump does not function.

When the temperature is reduced. During oxygen lack. Metabolic poisoning thus prevents the formation of ATP.

Potential buildup in the Na+ ion will be used by many different processes e.g cotransporter, neuron signalling etc.

P= f/a solve it for f
Bess [88]

Answer:

Force = Pressure × Area

Explanation:

Easy, just invert the equation. Transpose the force variable over to the left of the equals sign, and transpose the pressure variable back to the right side.

What is the primary pigment found in the chlotopast​
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer: Chlorophyll is a green photosynthetic pigment found in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria.

Chlorophyll absorbs mostly in the blue and to a lesser extent red portions of the electromagnetic spectrum, hence its intense green color.

Green substance in producers that traps light energy from the sun, which is then used to combine carbon dioxide and water into sugars in the process of photosynthesis Chlorophyll is vital for photosynthesis, which helps plants get energy from light.

Chlorophyll molecules are specifically arranged in and around pigment protein complexes called photosystems, which are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
