Which one of these is NOT an example using facilitated diffusion?

Answer:

C. "Using the sodium-potassium pump involves the hydrolysis of ATP and the

release of Nat to the outside of the cell."

Explanation:

The use of a sodium-potassium pump is a form of active transport, not diffusion. It also requires energy because the pump moves ions against their concentration gradient (low to high), unlike diffusion.

Answer:

Using the sodium-potassium pump involves the hydrolysis of ATP and the

release of Na+ to the outside of the cell.

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport. Molecules are moved from higher to lower concentration hence the process does not require energy or ATP. It does require a pore or channel to facilitate the process.

Out of the given options, sodium potassium pump is not an example of facilitated diffusion since it is hydrolysing ATP and using energy for the movement of Na+ ions against the concentration gradient. It is an example of active transport.

why do polysaccharides like cellulose and peptidoglycan able to resist degradation and enzymatic activity
mixer [17]

Polysaccharides like Cellulose form insoluble micro-fibrils making it resistant to degradation and enzymatic activity.

<u>EXPLANATION: </u>

  • Polysaccharides components in general broken down monosaccharides and they are very little enough to be absorbed by the body.
  • But the polysaccharide like cellulose cannot be absorbed by our body.
  • Cellulose is made up of simple polymers that form insoluble micro-fibrils results in resistant to degradation and enzymatic activity.
  • Also, molecules of each micro-fibril are so tightly packed structure and prevent the penetration of enzymes.
  • Thus, cellulose degradation requires a complex enzyme and cellulose.
