Explanation:
Although protons resemble other positive ions such as Na+ and K+ in their movement across membranes, in some respects they are unique. Hydrogen atoms are by far the most abundant type of atom in living organisms; they are plentiful not only in all carbon-containing biological molecules, but also in the water molecules that surround them. The protons in water are highly mobile, flickering through the hydrogen-bonded network of water molecules by rapidly dissociating from one water molecule to associate with its neighbor, Protons are thought to move across a protein pump embedded in a lipid bilayer in a similar way: they transfer from one amino acid side chain to another, following a special channel through the protein.
The correct answer is - one-half.
In the past century, the deforestation of the rainforests in the world had been devastating, and it is estimated that approximately one half of the tropical rainforests have been destroyed.
The reason for the large scale destruction of the rainforests is mainly because of clearing space for agriculture and for spaces where the cattle can graze. Unfortunately, the people that live the regions where the tropical forests are, are not well educated as to how to manage the land, and a big problem is that the soil of the rainforests is only good for 2-3 seasons, because it spends and erodes very quickly. Because of that, people just continue to clear more and more of it, thus leaving destroyed forest and destroyed soil behind them, without taking in consideration the long term effects.
