<span>Potassium is actively transported into and out of the vacuoles in the guard cells.

There are different kind of potassium transport channels (KAT1, KAT2) that transport K+ inside and outside the vacuole of the guard cell, by the use of ATP (energy) and H+.</span>

<span>Potassium is actively transported into and out of the vacuoles in the guard cells. The sodium-potassium pump is responsible for the process of moving sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrane which is an active transport process involving the hydrolysis of ATP to provide necessary energy required. Accumulation of potassium ions in the guard cells causes turgidity which keeps the stomata open.</span>

An outbreak occurs where the first case is detected on October 15th, the last case is detected on October 27th, and the peak is

aksik [14]

Answer:

12-14 october

Explanation:

The probable period of exposure is calculated as follows:

Know the range of the incubation period
Start counting back from the days of the first case by subtracting the first number of incubation period range
Count back the days from the last case by subtracting the last number of incubation period range.
This will give a range which will be the period of exposure.

From the question,

Incubation period range 1-15
Date of first case = october 15
Therefore, first date of exposure = 15 -1 = 14
Date of last case = 22
Therefore, last date of exposure = 27 - 15 = 12
Thus, the range is 12-14 october which is the probable period of exposure.

Describe how DNA is coiled and eventually supercoiled to condense it into chromosomes.

Solnce55 [7]

Double-stranded DNA loops around 8 histones twice, forming the nucleosome, which is the building block of chromatin packaging. DNA can be further packaged by forming coils of nucleosomes, called chromatin fibers. These fibers are condensed into chromosomes during mitosis, or the process of cell division.

Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.

During DNA packaging, long pieces of double-stranded DNA are tightly looped, coiled, super coiled, and folded so that they fit easily within the cell. This highly compacted DNA is then arranged into structures called chromosomes.

In which ways is photosynthesis important to life on Earth? Check all that apply. makes food for all organisms. adds oxygen to t

ladessa [460]

The right options are; makes food for all organisms, adds oxygen to the atmosphere, is a source of medicines and fibers, is a source of building materials and it provides animal habitat.

Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants and some other autotrophs use light energy in chloroplasts to generate carbohydrates (food) from carbon dioxide and water while oxygen is being released as a by-product. Photosynthesis is essential to all living organisms on earth because it is the main source of oxygen in the atmosphere. Photosynthesis provides animal habitat, it provides food for all organisms (directly for plants and indirectly for animals). Plants and trees produce their foods through photosynthesis and are used as medicines and fibers, and as building materials.
