Biology
1 answer:
marishachu [46]3 years ago

<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>

Joel notices that there is not much difference between low and high tide. what is happening?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

This is the spring tide: the highest (and lowest) tide. Spring tides are not named for the season. This is spring in the sense of jump, burst forth, rise. So spring tides bring the most extreme high and low tides every month, and they always happen – every month – around full and new moon.

Why doesn't our hands swell up due to osmosis , when we keep it in water for a long time ??
DerKrebs [107]
A cell wall is a permeable layer found in plant cells which acts as a membrane through which water molecules can pass through while animal cells do not have cell walls.. they just have a cell membrane which is selectively permeable to some chemicals or substances.. water does not move from the region of higher to lower concentration in animal cells

In short, plant cells have cell walls that allow osmosis while animal cells do not have cell walls for osmosis to take place

hope it helps you :)

Instead in our hands... something else happens rills or groove shaped lines are formed in our fingers.. it is an adaptation for our body to provide for some friction in water...

kirill [66]
The snakehead could unreservedly eat little fish and scavangers, so that would evacuate/diminish the predator for zooplankton and phytoplankton. So zooplankton and phytoplankton populace would increment while little fish and scavanger populace would diminish. Presently if little fish and shellfish populace diminishes, their predators would have bring down sustenance, so vast fish pop. would diminish. On the off chance that vast fish pop. diminishes, their predators will have less nourishment thus the number of inhabitants in well evolved creatures will somewhat drop, however not by much, since they can feast upon zooplankton. 
So at last, just the phytoplankton populace would increment while everything else diminishes.
