Investigators studying a particular cell response are curious about what type of cell-surface receptor might trigger it. They in

cubate cells with EDTA, a chemical known to sequester Ca2+. This treatment, they find, abolishes the response they are studying. Based on this information, which type of receptor is likely to be involved?

Answer:

An ion channel, more specifically a calcium channel.

Explanation:

The electrical activity of the cells is regulated by ion channels. Calcium channels, also referred as the voltage-gated calcium channels constitute one group of a superfamily of ion channels. A change in voltage across the membrane or small molecules triggers calcium channels to open, allowing calcium to flow into the cell. Inside the cell, calcium acts as a second messenger, it binds to calcium sensitive proteins to induce different responses and support several functions such as muscle contraction, hormone and neurotransmitter secretion, gene regulation, activation of other ion channels, control of action potentials, cell survival, etc.

An experiment reacts 20.4 g of zinc metal with a solution containing an excess of iron (III) sulfate. After the reaction, 10.8 g
quester [9]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 92.7%

Explanation:

Balanced Chemical reaction

                             3 Zn  + Fe₂(SO₄)₃   ⇒   2Fe   +   3ZnSO₄

Molecular weight

Zinc = 65.4 x 3 = 196.2g

Iron (III) = 56 x 2 = 112 g

Proportions  

                           196.2 g of Zinc ------------------ 112 g of Iron

                            20.4 g of Zinc  -----------------   x

                            x = (20.4 x 112) / 196.2

                            x = 2284.8/196.2

                            x = 11.65 g of Iron

% yield = \frac{10.8}{11.65}  x 100

% yield = 0.927 x 100

% yield = 92.7

How many grams are in 1.946 moles of nacl
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

113.8g

Explanation:

Statement of problem: mass of 1.946mole of NaCl

Given parameters:

Number of moles of NaCl = 1.946mole

Unknown: mass of NaCl

Solution

To find the mass of NaCl, we apply the concept of moles which expresses the relationship between number of moles and mass according to the equation below:

                        Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

To find the molar mass of NaCl:

                         the atomic mass of Na = 23g

                                atomic mass of Cl = 35.5g

                Molar mass of NaCl = (23 + 35.5) = 58.5gmol⁻¹

Mass of NaCl = Number of moles x molar mass of NaCl

Mass of NaCl = 1.946 x 58.5 = 113.8g

3. (01.03 MC)
sleet_krkn [62]

The majority of wind turbines consist of three blades mounted to a tower made from tubular steel. There are less common varieties with two blades, or with concrete or steel lattice towers. At 100 feet or more above the ground, the tower allows the turbine to take advantage of faster wind speeds found at higher altitudes.

Turbines catch the wind's energy with their propeller-like blades, which act much like an airplane wing. When the wind blows, a pocket of low-pressure air forms on one side of the blade. The low-pressure air pocket then pulls the blade toward it, causing the rotor to turn. This is called lift. The force of the lift is much stronger than the wind's force against the front side of the blade, which is called drag. The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. So therefore your answer would be A.
