Question:
Which of the following statements correctly describe(s) the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels? Select all that apply.
A)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is facilitated by the Na+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.
B)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane.
C)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the K+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.
D)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient is larger for Na+ than for K+.
Answer:
"The concentration gradient and the electro-chemical gradient" describes the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels
Explanation:
The Na ions diffusion inside the cell is facilitated by the concentration gradient of the Na ions which is present across the plasma membrane. Hence, the diffusion of the K ions which is present outside the cell and will be impeded due to the electrical gradient which is present near the plasma membrane. Thus, the electro-chemical gradient is greater as compared to the Na ion than that of the K ion.
The unit expressed in 660 nm of light represents the wavelength of light. If you want to determine the frequency, you use the speed of light to relate the two. The formula is:
c = λν
where
λ is the wavelength
ν is the frequency
c is the speed of light = 3×10⁸ m
Apply SI units:
(3×10⁸ m) = (660×10⁻⁹ m)(ν)
Solving for ν,
<em>ν = 4.55×10¹⁴ s⁻¹</em>

Mass of the water : 2.23 g
<h3>Furter explanation</h3>
Heat
Q = m.c.Δt
m= mass, g
c = heat capacity, for water : 4.18 J/g° C.
ΔT = temperature
Q= 140 J
Δt = 75 - 60 = 15
mass of the water :
Answer: By understanding conversion factors and how they are related to each other
Explanation:
Dimensional Analysis is a step by step approach to solving problems in Physics, Chemistry , and Mathematics. It involves having a clear knowledge and understanding to be able to convert a given unit to another in the same dimension using conversion factors and knowing how they are related to each other.
For instance, In Chemistry, we want to Convert 120mL to L.(note that ml stands for millilitres and ;L stands for litres)
Or first approach will be to write out the conversion factor related to our problem which is
1000ml =1L
such that 120ml = (we cross multiply))
giving us 120ml x 1L/1000ml =0.12L
This same process is applied to convert any type of dimensional analysis problems be it physics or mathematics.
