Answer:huh is it free points
Explanation:
Answer:
The sodium-potassium pump is an active transporter because it needs to move sodium and potassium ions against the concentration gradient.
Explanation:
You have to think of it as outside vs inside the cell.
Outside the cell, you have 5mM K and 150mM Na. Inside the cell, you have 100mM K and 10mM sodium. Without the transporter then the ions would go from greater concentration to lower concentration. Energy keeps the ions going from the way they would naturally happen.
Answer:
B) Absence of native grasses
Explanation:
The grasses, which acted as a windbreak and whose roots anchored the soil in place, were overgrazed and/or removed to allow for farming. Once a few years of severe drought affected the area, any wind storm was able to blow the topsoil away, rendering the farm land of the Great Plains virtually unusable in many areas. Ground cover is an essential part of sustainable agriculture.
Answer: An Organ System
Explanation: Vascular plants have two distinct organ systems: a shoot system, and a root system. The shoot system generally grows above ground, where it absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis. The root system, which supports the plants and absorbs water and minerals, is usually underground.
The correct answer is mRNA.
mRNA or messenger RNA is synthesized during the process of transcription, from DNA molecule which is used as a template. mRNA contains information about protein synthesis (translation) in the form of nucleotide triplets or codons.
In the example above: reference book is DNA molecule (template for copies), copies are mRNA, wood is amino acids (building blocks) and doghouse is protein.
