Sodium potassium pump is an active pump which transfer sodium and potassium ions across the membrane with the expenditure of energy in the form of ATP.
This kind of pump is generally used in nerve cells.
The pump works against the concentration gradient as the pump moves three Na+ ions outside the cell and two K+ ions inside the cell, though there is a high concentration of Na+ outside the cell and a low concentration of K+ outside the cell.
<span>The correct option is C. The concentration of phosphate inside the cytosol is already greater than the concentration of phosphate in the surrounding fluid, yet, the cell still want to move more phosphate into the cell. To do this, energy is needed to move the phosphate ions against the concentration gradient, so the type of transportation requires is ACTIVE TRANSPORT.</span><span />
Answer:
Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy from one molecule to another within an object. Conduction also happens between two objects in direct contact if they have different temperatures. The hotter molecule vibrates because of the added heat. This vibration and movement transfer the energy to the surrounding molecules. The transfer of energy continues until all the molecules have the same temperature.
Conduction takes place in solids, liquids, and gases. However, it happens fastest in solids because the molecules in solids are closely packed.
