Answer:
a. Remaining at rest requires the use of ATP.
Explanation:
The resting membrane potential is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump. The sodium potassium pump does this by actively pumping sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions inside the cell in a ratio of 3:2. This movement of ions by the sodium-potassium pump is against their concentration gradient. In a neuron at rest, there are more sodium ions outside the cell than there are inside the cell. Also, there are are more potassium ions inside the cell than there are outside the cell. However, there are ion channels through which these ions enter and leave the cell. Sodium ion channels allow sodium to enter the cell following its concentration gradient, whereas, potassium ion channels allow potassium to leave the cell following its concentration gradient. However, more potassium ions leave the cell than do sodium ions enter the cell because of the higher permeability of the cell to potassium ions.
In order to maintain the resting membrane potential, the sodium potassium pump powered by the hydrolysis of an ATP molecules pumps sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell.
<em>Therefore, the correct option is A, as ATP is needed by the sodium-potassium pump in order to maintain the resting membrane potential.</em>
The number of protons must differ between two different elements
Answer:
The concentration of the pyridinium cation at equilibrium is 1.00×10⁻³ M
Explanation:
In water we have
C₅H₅NHBr + H₂O ⇒ C₅H₅NH+ + Br−
Pyridinium Bromide (C₅H₅NHBr) Dissociates Completely Into C₅H₅NH+ And Br− as such it is a strong Electrolyte.
Therefore the number of moles of positive ion produced per mole of C₅H₅NHBr is one
pH = - log [H₃O⁺] Therefore 10^-pH = [H₃O⁺] = concentration of C₅H₅NHBr
= 10⁻³ = 0.001M = concentration of C₅H₅NHBr
The concentration of C₅H₅NHBr is = 1.00×10⁻³ M to two places of decimal
Gases and plasma's undergo changes in volume most easily<span>. In contrast, liquids and solids have fixed volumes, although liquids do not have fixed shapes. Gases and plasma's expand or contract to fill their containers.</span><span />
Answer: 0 neutrons
Explanation:
to find neutrons you subtract the atomic number from the Atomic mass. The atomic mass is 1. The atomic number is 1. So 1-1=0 making the neutrons in a hydrogen molecule 0.
