Answer:

2.688 x 10^-6 oz

Explanation:

The recommended amount of blue fish in pregnant women is 0.5 pounds once a month. So, 0.5 pound is solely 8 ounces. If 0.336 oz of mercury is present in 1 x 10^6 oz of fish then (8 / 1000000) x 0.366 = 2.688 x 10^-6 oz is the amount of mercury a pregnant woman will consume if she eats half a pound of blue fish one per month.

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "the conversion of gaseous nitrogen into an organism friendly form (ammonia (NH3)".

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixation is a biological process at which gaseous nitrogen is converted into an organism friendly form (ammonia (NH3). Nitrogen fixation is performed in nature by microorganisms in the soil. Some of these microorganisms have a symbiotic relationship with plants. These microorganisms convert the gaseous nitrogen into ammonia, which is used by the plant as a source of nitrogen.

The plasma membrane represents an energetic barrier to the free diffusion of ions from the extracellular space into the cytoplas
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Why are molecules such as valinomycin effective at transporting ions across the membrane?

Valinomycin is effective as transporting ions across the membrane because it is no charged, so it can carry ions.

Why would a drop in temperature to or below the transition temperature limit valinomycin mediated K+ transport across the plasma membrane?

Valinomycin is limited by temperature because its activity is highly sensitive and it depends on a stable and an average temperature.

Explanation:

Valinomycin is effective at transporting ion across the membrane because is an antibiotic that alternates hydroxy and amino acid, ans it helps membranes to be permeable. Valinomycin is a cyclic molecule that helps in ions transportation through membranes. Also, antibiotics have a temperature range of activity, that's why it is sensitive to changes.
