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.

<span>1. List five observations Darwin made about the Amblyrhynchus lizards.

a. They measure about 2-3 feet long.
b. They are cold-blooded.
c. They feed on crab and sea lion feces.
d. They are the only marine iguanas in the world.
e. Their nostrils are connected to salt glands that allow them to expel excess sea salt. 

</span><span>2. Describe two examples of structural adaptations that Darwin observed.

a. </span><span>Darwin discovered that finches in the Galapagos have thirteen different kinds of beaks. 
b. </span>Darwin observed two kinds of giant tortoises that are distinguished by the shapes of their carapaces (dome-shaped and saddle-shaped). 

3. <span>Describe two behavioral adaptations that Darwin observed.
</span>
a. <span>The marine iguanas have developed several ways of coping with the cold. At night, they huddle together for warmth. 
b. </span>In the face of famine, the marine iguanas have adapted by having the ability to shrink their body size. They are able to grow back to their original size once the food is supply increases.

4. <span>Explain how these observations influenced his theory of evolution?
</span>

These observations led Darwin to believe that if a certain trait is more advantageous in a specific environment, then the carriers of that trait are more likely to survive into adulthood and to generate offspring than those who do not have that trait. Eventually, the advantageous traits for a species will proliferate. Darwin later called this as "survival of the fittest".

How can a change in technology affect scientific knowledge?
Shalnov [3]
It helps scientists improve on research and tests/examinations to understand the object a little more. For Example: The newer modified microscope helps zoom into harder to see microrganisms. So if technology changed then most of our scientific knowledge wouldve been mistaken this whole time. We wouldnt know many things if technology didnt exist.

a mechanism that is effective in maintaining a normal glomerular blood pressure only if the systemic mean arterial pressure rema
rodikova [14]

A mechanism that is effective in maintaining a normal glomerular blood pressure only if the systemic mean arterial pressure remains between 80 and 180 mm hg is called renal autoregulation.

<h3>What is renal autoregulation?</h3>
  • Autoregulation is the inner characteristic of blood vessels present in end organs, like heart, kidney, and mind, by which they dilate or constrict in response to pressure changes, thus help to keep the blood flow generally steady.
  • Usually our body tries to regulate our blood pressure in range of 50 to 150 mm Hg.
  • Regulation of renal blood flow and glomerular blood pressure in kidneys is called renal autoregulation.
  • There are 3 mechanisms of renal blood flow namely myogenic response (MR), tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) and third mechanism that is independent of TGF but slower than MR.
