Biology

Gemiola [76]4 years ago

The right answer is Uranium (especially U-235).

Nuclear fission is the phenomenon by which a heavy atomic nucleus (that is, formed of a large number of nucleons such as uranium, plutonium, etc.) is split into two or more lighter nuclides.

This nuclear reaction is accompanied by the emission of neutrons (generally two or three) and a very important energy release (≈ 200 MeV (megaelectronvolt) per fissioned atom, compared to the energies of the chemical reactions which are the order of the eV per atom or molecule reacting).

blondinia [14]
The process of water exiting out of the leaves of the plants and that enters to the atmosphere thereafter is called transpiration. Transpiration is the plant version of respiration of animals. Through water cycle, water is absorbed to the atmosphere then brought back to the earth through precipitation

What would be the expected result if a competitive, nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP were applied to the cytoplasmic side of a plas
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations.

Explanation:

The Na/⁺K⁺ pump is an ATPase pump which is responsible for maintaining low Na⁺ and high K⁺ concentrations within the cytoplasm while maintaining high Na⁺ and low K⁺ concentrations in the extracellular fluid.

Since these two ions are moved against their concentration gradient, ATP hydrolysis is required to provide the energy for this process. This is done by moving in two K⁺ ions  inside while moving three Na⁺ ions outside the cell for every molecule of ATP hydrolysed to ADP and Pi.

If a competitive non-hydrolyzable analog of ATP is applied on the cytoplasmic side of a plasma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump, it will act by inhibiting the action of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump. This will result in an accumulation of Na⁺ ions inside the cell and lower than normal K⁺ ions concentration.
