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

Biology

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.

What amino acids do trypsin and chymotrypsin cut at?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Trypsin cuts at lysine and arginine amino acid residues at the carboxyl end. Chymotrypsin cuts at tryosine , phenylalanine, and tryptophan amino acid residues at the carboxyl end.

Explanation:

Trypsin and chymotrypsin are known as proteolytic enzymes which are actively involved in the digestive system. They are both secreted by the pancreas and are majorly involved in the breakdown of protein in the small intestine.

Trypsin cuts at lysine and arginine amino acid residues at the carboxyl end. Chymotrypsin cuts at tryosine , phenylalanine, and tryptophan amino acid residues at the carboxyl end.

Sheryl is observing ovarian slides taken from a female ape. All the cells show crossover chromosomes. What is this stage?
Kobotan [32]
<span>The stage at which all the cells show crossover chromosomes is meiotic prophase I. The crossover is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. Homologous chromosomes are present in the meiosis I. Regarding the phase of meiosis I, it is expected that the crossover takes place in meiotic prophase I since homologous chromosomes pair up in the prophase.</span>
