Specific amino acids that line the selectivity filter of the K channel can dehydrate K and allow passage of that ion but cannot

coordinate the dehydration of Na . True or False
Chemistry

Bogdan [553]3 years ago

Answer:

Hi

True

Explanation:

Since on the inner and outer surfaces of the membrane, a series of negatively charged amino acids are found, which increase the local concentration of cations. The path of the ions begins on the inner surface filled with water molecules where the ion can retain its hydration sphere. Two thirds of its interior in the membrane the inside of the channel narrows in the region of the selectivity filter, forcing the ion to separate from the water molecules. Oxygen atoms in the selectivity filter replace the water molecules in the K+ hydration sphere, forming a series of coordination spheres through which the ion moves. The preferential stabilization of K+ against Na+ is the basis of the ion selectivity of this filter.

Define motion of particles in matter
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion. As a result, all particles in matter have kinetic energy. The kinetic theory of matter helps explain the different states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas. ... Particles do not always move at the same speed.

In which layer(s) would a solid cube with 6 cm sides and mass of 270 g float? Explain.
DIA [1.3K]
The buoyancy of an object is dictated by its density. So let us calculate for density, where:density = mass / volume
Calculate the volume first of a solid cube:volume = (6 cm)^3 = 216 cm^3 = 216 mL
Therefore density is:density = 270 g / 216 mLdensity = 1.25 g / mL
Therefore this object will float in the layer in which the density is more than 1.25 g / mL.
