Facilitated diffusion is usually significant to pass the ions across the hydrophobic layer of the plasma membrane. Transmembrane integral protein and careers proteins provide the channels that allow the ion to pass across the membrane. When an ion bind to their active site on the protein (note that the proteins are very selective), the protein changes conformation. It is this change in conformation opens up the channel that allows the ions to be passed across the membrane. When the ions are released inside of the cell, the protein resumes normal shape (and the channel also closes) and the active site becomes available again or another ion.
Answer:
B) All DNA molecules will migrate up the gel toward the positive electrode.
Explanation:
Because the DNA has a negative charge - regardless the size-, all DNA molecules will migrate towards the positive electrode, at the top of the gel. This is due to the Coulomb's physic law "force of the interaction between the charges is attractive if the charges have opposite signs".
Instead of migrate down the gel , the DNA will do migrate up the gel (opposite direction).
Answer:
Because the Arctic glacier is crucial in cooling the land.
Explanation:
The glaciers contained in the Arctic are essential for cooling the earth's climate, which is why Arctic conditions are so important in determining the earth's climate changes.
These glaciers reflect about 80% of the sunlight in the northern hemisphere, and can cool the region's climate. If Arctic glaciers melt, most of the sun's rays will be absorbed by the ocean, increase the temperature and increase the melting of the glaciers.
As a result, the entire ecosystem will be damaged.
Answer: the correct answer is E. Snakes, a major predator of young prairie voles, are active only from spring through early autumn.
Explanation:
Mortality among young voles from spring to early fall is high because snakes are active during this time.
