<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is D. 4.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given that a line is perpendicular to another line with the equation y=-\frac{1}{4} x-9. We are to find the slope of this perpendicular line.

We know that the in the standard equation of a line, y=mx+c, m is the slope of the line.

Also, the slope of a line perpendicular to another is the negative reciprocal of that line.

Therefore, the slope of this perpendicular line is 4.

Answer:

a. 1/3

In the picture- D. 4

Explanation:

The product of the gradients of perpendicular lines =-1

m1m2=-1

Given an equation of a line in the form y=mx+c, m is the gradient of the line.

For y= -3x-9, m=-3

m1m2=-1

-3×m2=-1

m2=1/3

The gradient of the perpendicular line is 1/3

For the question in the picture, y=-1/4x-9, m=-1/4

m1×m2=-1

-1/4m2=-1

m2=4

The slope of the line perpendicular to y=-1/4x-9 is 4

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. Ca2+ import into the ER because it has the steeper concentration gradient

Explanation:

ΔGt =  RT㏑(C₂/C₁)

where ΔGt is the free energy change for transport; R = 8.315 J/mol; T = 298 K; C₂/C₁ is ratio of concentrations inside and outside each organelle.

For Ca²⁺ import

ΔGt = 8.315 J/mol * 298 K * ㏑(10⁻³/10⁻⁷)

ΔGt= 3.42 kJ/mol

For H⁺ import

ΔGt = 8.315 J/mol * 298 K * ㏑ (10⁻⁴/10⁻⁷)

ΔGt = 2.73 kJ/mol

From the above values, ΔGt is greater for Ca²⁺ import because it has a steeper concentration gradient
