Glucose provides energy for cells. Different cells have different mechanisms for glucose intake. Intestinal cells contain protei

ns that transport glucose against its concentration gradient. These proteins couple the movement of glucose to the movement of sodium down its concentration gradient. Red blood cells have transporter proteins embedded in their membranes. When bound by a glucose molecule, these proteins change shape and allow glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell.
Based on this information, what type of transport is used for glucose in blood and intestinal cells?

A.
Blood cells take in glucose by active transport and intestinal cells take in glucose by passive transport.
B.
Blood cells take in glucose by passive transport and intestinal cells take in glucose by active transport.
C.
Both blood and intestinal cells take in glucose by passive transport.
D.
Both blood and intestinal cells take in glucose by active transport.

The nerves that control voluntary responses like those connected to your muscles are part of the _____ nervous system.
Murljashka [212]
<span><em><u>SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM</u></em>

The neuron, a cell that composes the nervous system. For example a brain, an organ composed of thousands of neural fibers and glial cells that performs many important organismic functions. 
Neurons are specialised cells that have dendrites, axons and terminal buttons that sends and receives stimuli from the environment and transduces it into a meaningful information and understand the complexities which the brain now functions. </span>

From the sensory organ received by the sensory neuron the message is sent to the brain and then back to the motor neuron to the muscle or organ responsible.

5.21 Unit Test: Water and Oceans - Part 1
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Surface currents that move in a path similar to the wind currents

Explanation:

One of the reasons of the movement of the surface of the oceans is the force of the blowing wind. When there is a movement of wind over the surface of the ocean, the surface friction is created. Because of this there is an energy transfer between the force of the wind and the surface of the ocean water. This results in the creation of roughness of the surface of the ocean. The more the surface area of the ocean, the more is the transfer of the energy.

Which of the following is the largest particle in soil? A-clay B-sand C-silt D-humus
Akimi4 [234]

Well the soil classification is usually done on the basis of particle sizes and composition of soil.

<span>Clay </span>usually consists of particles less than 0.075 mm in size. It is a sticky soil and shows great changes in volume with variation in its water contact. It also shows considerable strength when air dried.

<span>Silt </span>has larger particles than clay and are mainly inorganic in nature. The particle size is less than 0.075mm and exhibits slightly plastic or non plastic behaviour.

Humus is soil consisting of dead and decaying organic matter. It is mainly organic in content but some inorganic particles may be mixed in it. The top soil in a tropical forest may be considered as humus.

Which of the following statements about magnesium atoms is NOT correct? 1. All magnesium atoms have the same number of protons.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

5. All magnesium atoms have the same number of neutrons

Explanation:

Magnesium (Mg) is a chemical element. Its atomic number (Z) is 12 (number of protons in the nucleus of the Mg atom).

The Magnesium has three stable isotopes: 24Mg, 25Mg and 26Mg. All these isoforms have 12 protons in their atoms (same atomic number), however they  vary in the mass number of the atom (M).

The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

Based on this information we can know how many neutrons each isotope has

24 Mg = 12 protones + 12 neutrons

25Mg = 12 protones + 13 neutrons

26Mg = 12 protones + 14 neutrons

In this way we conclude that <u>not all magnesium atoms have the same number of neutrons</u>
