What process allows Na+ and K+ to move in and out of the cell simultaneously?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: C. Active Transport.

Explanation:

Because Na+ and K+ are ions, which makes them <em>charged molecules</em>, they can only diffuse through the cell membrane when using specialized protein channels. This is called <u>facilitated diffusion</u> and is a form of passive transport because sodium and potassium move <em>following their gradients</em>, which are made of the difference in concentration between the inside of the cell and the outside of the cell. For example, potassium is highly concentrated inside the cell and poorly concentrated outside the cell, so potassium diffuses from the inside to the outside to even the concentrations.

But the question asks in which process Na+ and K+ move in and out of the cell SIMULTANEOUSLY, so the answer is actually <u>active transport</u>. Active transport is the opposite of passive transport. While passive transport occurs naturally and doesn't need ATP (energy) to happen, active transport needs ATP because it moves molecules AGAINST their gradient. One of the most famous and important structures involved in active transport is the Na+/K+ pump, which consists of a <em>specialized protein using energy to enter 2 potassium ions and take out 3 sodium ions at the same time</em>. This Na+/K+ is fundamental to maintain the gradients, which are important for the correct functioning of many cells.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The stratosphere

contains the ozone layer ,

is used by airplanes,

has strong, steady winds , and

increases in temperature as altitude increases .

Explanation:

The stratosphere is the atmospheric layer between 10 km and 50 km above the Earth's surface.

It includes the ozone layer, which is at an altitude of about 20 km.

It has strong, steady winds that can reach as high as 220 km/h.

Passenger aircraft generally fly in the lower levels of the stratosphere, at altitudes of about 10 km to 12 km.

Temperatures increase with altitude, from -50 °C at 10 km to -3 °C at 50 km.

A is wrong. The mesosphere (altitude 50 km to 85 km) is the coldest of the atmospheric layers, with temperatures as low as -90 °C at 85 km.

The "crossing over" of maternal and paternal genetic information in chromatids to form new combinations of genetic information o
daser333 [38]
Metaphase is the stage in which the "crossing over" occurs.


As we know chromosomes carry genetic information. This crossing over process happens in eukaryotic cells and occurs during the mitosis phases of cell division.


Hopefully this helped.
