What happens when sodium potassium pump stops working?

Biology

nekit [7.7K]3 years ago

Answer:  If this pump quits working (as happens under anoxic conditions when ATP is lost), or if the action of the pump is hindered (as happens with heart glycosides, for example, digoxin), Na+ aggregates inside the cell and intracellular K+ falls.

Explanation:

The way toward moving sodium and potassium particles over the cell layer is a functioning vehicle procedure including the hydrolysis of ATP to give the necessary energy. It achieves the vehicle of three Na+ to the outside of the cell and the vehicle of two K+ particles ions to the inside. In this manner, if the sodium-potassium siphon quits working both Na+ aggregates inside the cell and intracellular K+ falls.

Answer:

Produced by the choroid plexus -T.This is the major secretion site.It is also produced in smaller quantities in the interstitial compartment.

Blocks blood toxins from brain tissue-F, that is the job of  the blood brain barrier(BBB).

Supplies oxygen to the brain tissue-T.This gas is dissolved  in the CSF together with CO2 for distribution among nervous tissues by the CSF

Maintains the concentration of glycine surrounding the brain-T

Found in the ventricles of the heart and brain-False,it does not reach the heart ventricles.This are occupied by blood.

Prevents concussions-T

Produces antibodies in response to antigen exposure in the brain tissue-False.These are produced by the B-cells, not by in the CSF,based on the  specif antigen stimulation.

Effectively decreases the brain's weight-T It reduces the weight of the brain.This is done by the buoyancy it provided for the brain.

Compared to levels in the blood plasma, the CSF is higher in glucose-F.This is wrong, the glucose of the blood plasma is higher.But equal sodium ion,more chloride in CSF, and less protein.It s levels is a relefection of blood glucose.Although it may lag 2-4hrs in the CSF.

It prevents concussion,(T)and and the contraction of cardiac muscles propels its movement(T).

How would you change your model to show what happens when the other cell receives the protein?
GREYUIT [131]

Another cell that shows the process of endocytosis should be drawn. When the second cell receives the protein, the model will show a folded plasma membrane around the protein. The model will show the membrane bringing the protein into the cell.

Cloud [144]

Structural adaptations are biological characters of an organism like the bill on a bird or the fur on a bear. Other adaptations are behaviour.

<h3>Define adaptation?</h3>

Adaptation, the method by which a species becomes adapted to its surroundings; it is the outcome of biological selection's acting upon heritable divergence over various generations.

Thus,Structural adaptations are biological characters of an organism like the bill on a bird or the fur on a bear.
