Sodium and potassium ions can diffuse across the plasma membranes of all cells because of the presence of what type of channel?

Biology
1 answer:
MrMuchimi4 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is option d, that is, leak channels.  

The cell membrane comprises protein channels known as leak channels, which permits sodium and potassium ions to leak down their concentration gradients. The membranes of the cell are significantly more permeable to potassium ions in comparison to the sodium ions, due to the presence of more K+ leak channels than Na+ leaks channels.

How do I Construct a table to compare the products and reactants in photosynthesis and cellular respiration
katen-ka-za [31]

Explanation:

Create the column headings "Reactants" and "Products". The two row headings should be "Photosynthesis" and "Cellular respiration".

Before filling in the table, make sure you know what the products and reactants from photosynthesis and cellular respiration are.

Remember reactants are the 'before' on the left, and products are the 'after' on the right.

<u>Photosynthesis</u>:

CO_{2} + H_{2}O+light =>O_{2}+C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}

<u>Cellular Respiration</u>:

O_{2}+C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}=>CO_{2} + H_{2}O+ATP

See attachment for how the table could look.

Which genetic change causes alterations in only one or a few nucleotide bases?
AlexFokin [52]

The genetic change causes alterations in only one or a few nucleotide bases in known as mutation.

A mutation is a change in a brief section of a genome's nucleotide sequence. Another frequently replaces one nucleotide in point mutations; other changes involve the insertion or deletion of one or more nucleotides.

Errors in DNA replication or the harmful effects of mutagens, such as chemicals and radiation, which react with DNA and alter the architecture of individual nucleotides, are the leading causes of mutations.

DNA repair enzymes are present in all cells and work to reduce the frequency of mutations. These enzymes reduce genetic information loss, double-strand break formation, and DNA crosslinking by repairing DNA damage.
