Compartments A and B are separated by a membrane that is permeable to K+ but not to Na+ or Cl-. At time zero, a solution of KCl

is poured into compartment A and an equally concentrated solution of NaCl is poured into compartment B. Which would be true once equilibrium is reached?
A. The concentration of Na+ in A will be higher than it was at time zero.
B. Diffusion of K+ from A to B will be greater than the diffusion of K+ from B to A.
C. There will be a potential difference across the membrane, with side B negative relative to side A.
D. The electrical and diffusion potentials for K+ will be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
E. The concentration of Cl- will be higher in B than it was at time zero.

Answer:

The electrical and diffusion potentials for K+ will be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Explanation:

The cell potential may be defined as the potential difference between the inside of the cell and outside the cell. This difference is important for the transmission of nerve impulse.

The equilibrium condition may be defined as the condition at which  the exit and the entrance of the ions will be equal. As the information in the question, Only potassium ions will move inward and outward of the cell. The potassium ions will move in opposite direction since the equilibrium has been reached.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

If carbon was the most common element found in the moons and planets, what element is missing that would make them similar to Ea
natta225 [31]

The other element would be Oxygen.

Explanation:

The carbon cycle occurs on Earth. This cycle contains the series of processes by which carbon compounds are inter-converted in the environment. On moons and other heavenly objects there is no life because there is no carbon cycle. Carbon and oxygen are the two gases required for photosynthesis process in plants to make carbon dioxide and then its return to the atmosphere through respiration.

Lymphoid tissue that appears as a swelling of the mucosa in the oral cavity is called a(n) _____________ .
Darina [25.2K]
There are choices for this question namely: 

<span>A) tonsil
B) thymus
C) Peyer's patch
D) appendix
</span>
The correct answer is "tonsil". Tonsils are lymphoid tissue that is found in the oral mucosa. The tonsils are arranged in a ring-like fashion called the Waldeyer's ring. This ring comprises of two tubal tonsils, two palatine tonsils, one adenoid tonsil, and one lingual tonsils. In cases of infection involving the oral mucosa and the pharynx, the tonsils become inflamed as well and the condition is called acute tonsillopharyngitis.
