A cell membrane pump helps human cells to maintain a relatively constant sodium and potassium  concentration.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sodium potassium pump is a plasma membrane protein that utilizes energy ATP — Triphosphate Adenosine turning into ADP — Adenosine Diphosphate to deliver intracellular and extracellular sodium (NA+) and potassium (K+) ions sequentially. The purpose of this entire mechanism is to preserve cell equilibrium.

The extracellular medium has a greater concentration of Na while the K concentration of the intracellular fluid is lower. Proteins trap sodium ions in the cytoplasm and pump them out from the cells to preserve cell stability while preserving concentrations. Within the cells proteins inject potassium ions into the cell.

In the alteration of generations life cycle the spore undergoes mitosis to become a A) gametophyte B) sproohyte C) spore D) game
Eva8 [605]
<span>A mature sporophyte produces spores by meiosis, a process which reduces the number of chromosomes to half, from 2n to n. Because meiosis is a key step in the alternation of generations, it is likely that meiosis has a fundamental adaptive function. The nature of this function is still unresolved (see Meiosis), but the two main ideas are that meiosis is adaptive because it facilitates repair of DNA damages and/or that it generates genetic variation. The haploid spores germinate and grow into a haploid gametophyte. At maturity, the gametophyte produces gametes by mitosis, which does not alter the number of chromosomes. Two gametes (originating from different organisms of the same species or from the same organism) fuse to produce a zygote, which develops into a diploid sporophyte.</span>

The theory of what tells us that favorable traits will become common in a population over time
Radda [10]
Natural selection! In the theory of natural selection, those with less beneficial traits won't live to reproduce, but those with beneficial traits will be able to reproduce and pass on those traits to their offspring, which significantly increases the frequency of those beneficial traits.

Control and experimental groups. They repeated their experiment several times and found the results were the same.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Experience 1 is the one that has the greatest reliability.

Explanation:    Because of this potential variation, biological experiments need to have a large sample size and preferably be repeated several times.  With more samples and repeating the experiment more often, the probability of arriving at a wrong conclusion due to random variation is diminished. As experience 1 has had several repetitions, it is the experience with a more reliable result.
