Chloride ions cannot move out of cells by simple diffusion.

Biology
1 answer:
Goshia [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Facilitated Diffusion.

Explanation:

Most substances use simple diffusion, move across a membrane because they are smaller and polar. But for chloride ions, that is not the case.

Chloride Ions are charged negatively, and since they are negatively charged, they cannon move across the membrane without help from something. Therefore, chloride ions move by facilitated diffusion using carrier proteins.

Facilitated Diffusion is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins.

That explains how chloride ions can move in and out of cells.

Name the receptors that respond to a stimulus within the body but their location is restricted to skeletal muscles, tendons, joi
suter [353]

Answer:

proprioceptor

Explanation:

Proprioceptors are the receptor located in a joint, muscle, or tendon. These receptors are concerned with locomotion, posture, and muscle tone. These receptors respond to internal stimuli only and are present in a specific location in the body. For example, the tendon organ is a proprioceptor present in the tendon. The function of the tendon organ is to monitor the muscle tension and to prevent its tearing. These receptors also help smooth start and termination of muscle contraction.

Proprioceptors are the mechanoreceptors that regulate the body’s equilibrium and posture by their role in reflex actions that maintain muscle tone. They sense the position of limbs by detecting the degree of muscle relaxation, the stretch of tendons, and ligament movements.
