Diffusion- The process by which molecules spread themselves out evenly in a given area. This happens by natural molecular movement.How do particles move across membranes?- by osmosis, active transport, simple diffusion and facilitated diffusionSimple/Passive Diffusion<span>- No energy
- Happens across cell membrane
- From high to low concentration ("down the concentration gradient")</span>Controlled/Facilitated Diffusion- diffusion across a membrane through specific protein channels in the membrane, with no energy costOsmosis- Simple diffusion of waterActive Transport<span>- Requires energy
- Happens only at specific channels
- From low to high concentration ("against the concentration gradient")</span>Concentration Gradient- difference in concentration of a substance between one area and anotherGradient- Different or unevenSemi-Permeability<span>- a type of biological membrane that will allow certain molecules or ions to pass through it by diffusion

(homeostasis- cells)- Cells constantly change concentrations to their benefit and to maintain stable internal conditions.Endocytosis- the movement of bulk liquids or solids into a cell, by the indentation of the plasma membrane to form vesicles containing the substance; active process requiring ATPEndo--means 'inside'Exocytosis- the movement of bulk liquids or solids out of a cell by fusion of vesicles containing the substance with the plasma membrane; active process requiring ATPExo--means 'outside'How many types of Endocytosis are there?- 3 types of endocytosis-- phagocytosis, pinocytosis and receptor mediated endocytosisPhagocytosis- In endocytosis, if the substances being taken in are particles, such as bacteria, then process is called phagocytosisPinocytosis- In endocytosis, if the substances are in solution, such as the end products of digestion, then the process is called pinocytosisReceptor-Mediated Endocytosis- is an endocytotic mechanism in which specific molecules are ingested into the cell.Water Potential- the tendency of water molecules to move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentrationPlasmolysis- Shrinkage of protoplasm away from the cell wall of a plant or bacterium due to water loss from osmosis, therefore resulting in gaps between the cell wall and cell membrane.Protoplasm- the fluid living content of the cell-- composed mainly of nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, carbohydratesTypes of Solutions<span>- hypotonic

An electronics company makes communication devices for military contracts. The company just completed two contracts. The navy co
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Workers of army contract were more productive.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine on which contract the workers were more productive compute the work done per hour by the workers for both contracts.

  • <u>Navy Contract</u>:

Number of devices = 2,300

Number of workers = 25

Number of weeks = 2 weeks

Number of hours per week = 40

The number of hours it took 25 workers to produce 2300 devices is =

=25\times2\times40\\=2000\ hours

Then number of devices produced in 1 hour is = \frac{2300}{2000}= 1.15\ devices\ per\ hour

  • <u>Army Contract</u>:

Number of devices = 5,500

Number of workers = 35

Number of weeks = 3 weeks

Number of hours per week = 40

The number of hours it took 35 workers to produce 5500 devices is ==35\times3\times40\\=4200\ hours

Then number of devices produced in 1 hour is = \frac{5500}{4200}= 1.31\ devices\ per\ hour

The workers for the army contract are more productive since they produce 1.31 devices per hour whereas the workers for navy contract produces 1.15 devices per hour.

A person x inches tall has a pulse rate of y beats per​ minute, as given approximately by yequals600 x Superscript negative 1 di
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

a) 5.13beats/min

b) 2.82 beats/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the pulse rate of a person modelled by the equation y = 600x^-1/3 for 30≤x≤75

If the height is 39inches, the instantaneous rate of change of pulse rate for the heights will be expressed as;

y = 600(39)^-1/3

y = {600(1/39)}/3

y = 600/39×3

y = 600/117

y ≈ 5.13beats/min

The instantaneous rate for a 39 inches tall person is 5.13 beats per min

b) For a 71inches tall person, the beat rate will be expressed as;

y = 600(71)^-1/3

y = {600(1/71)}/3

y = 600/71×3

y = 600/213

y ≈ 2.82 beats per minute

The instantaneous rate for a 71 inches tall person is 2.82 beats per min
