Answer:

The sodium-potassium pump  

Explanation:

Nerve impulse transmission is an electrochemical phenomenon that occurs in nerve cells and makes the nervous system work. It is the result of changes in electrical charges in the membrane of neurons, cells specialized in information processing.

Electric charges move in neurons like ions, mainly sodium (Na +) and potassium (K +). These ions cross the plasma membrane of the neuron through protein channels and ion pumps, which are embedded in the phospholipid bilayer of the membrane.

The sodium-potassium pump inserted in the membrane moves the ions against their concentration gradient, it takes the sodium and puts the potassium inside the cell and for that there is an energy expenditure. For this reason, we can say that pumps and sodium and potassium are responsible for transmitting a nervous message from the fingertips to the brain.

Give the sequence of mRNA that would match the following DNA strand
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

mRNA is a complimentary copy of a DNA segment (gene) and consequently can be used to deduce the gene sequence. For converting a sequence from mRNA to the original DNA code, apply the rules of complementary base pairing: Cytosine (C) is replaced with Guanine (G) – and vice versa. Uracil (U) is replaced by Adenine (A).

The codon is the three nucleotide sequence in the mRNA that indicates which amino acid should be incorporated in the growing polypeptide chain. The anticodon is the complementary three nucleotide sequence in the appropriate tRNA.

Drag each tile to the correct box.<br> Arrange the layers and faults from oldest to youngest.
kaheart [24]

The answers would be:

Layer D

Layer C

Layer B

Layer A

Layer E

Fault F

If you'd like to know why, here's more about the question:

The law of superpo sition states that the lower the layer, the older the rock is.

Looking at the layers alone, we can say that D is the oldest, and C would be next, so on and so forth.

The law of cross - cutt ing relationships, on the other hand, states that a geologic event, like a fault, is younger than the layer that it goes through.

So if we look at the figure given, the fault goes through all the layers, so we can say that it is younger than all the layers.

The use of nuclear energy can have both positive a.d negative consequences. Which of the following is a positive consequences of
stich3 [128]

Answer:

One of the positive consequences of nuclear power plants is that it produces small amounts of air pollution. Comparing it to coal power plants, nuclear reactors has less or no production of air pollution while in operation. It is by far one of the power plants with least contribution to air pollution.

Identify the reactants of photosynthesis
olasank [31]

Answer:

The reactants for photosynthesis are light energy, water, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll, while the products are glucose (sugar), oxygen and water.

Explanation:

Water and carbon dioxide are reactants for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll captures sun's light energy and then plants chemically combine this with water and carbon dioxide to make glucose (sugar) and oxygen.
