<u>Answer</u>:
<em>Sodium potassium pump works by following several steps.
</em>
<u>Explanation</u>:
<em>1. Carrier protein binds three molecules of Na+
</em>
<em>2. ATP is split, phosphate bonds to carrier.
</em>
<em>3. Carrier protein changes shape, and deposits Na on the outside of the cell.
</em>
<em>4. Carrier binds two molecules of K
</em>
<em>5. Phosphate is released.
</em>
<em>6. Potassium is released inside the cell
</em>
Sodium -potassium pump is essential to maintain the concentration of sodium and potassium outside and inside the cell respectively.
It is the function of sodium potassium pump to transport sodium out of the cell and potassium inside of the cell against a concentration gradient.
<em>Thus it is an active transport mechanism.
</em>
Hello! I figured your question was lacking its options so I went online to find them and here they are:
A. Activated platelets release chemicals that inhibit blood clot formation.
B. Activated platelets release signaling molecules that inhibit cell division in damaged tissue.
C. Activated platelets constrict the blood vessels, stopping blood flow.
D. Activated platelets release chemicals that activate more platelets.
Answer:
The correct answer is: D) Activated platelets release chemicals that activate more platelets.
Explanation:
<u>Positive feedback</u><u> is a mechanism in which a stimulus triggers an intensification of this same stimulus.</u>
When a tissue is damaged, the platelets participate in a process called platelet adhesion that consists of contacting and sticking to the collagen fibers of the connective tissue under the damaged endothelial cells. This platelet adhesion <u>activates</u> the platelets and makes them grow projections to contact and interact with one another, while releasing substances to activate other nearby platelets. The accumulation and the attachment of large numbers of platelets ultimately form a <u>platelet plug</u>.
