The particles in a solid are tightly packed and locked in place. Although we cannot see it or feel it, the particles are vibrating in place.

As these molecules heat up, they will vibrate more vigorously, and will eventually turn to water, then gas.

At rest, a neuron has a lower concentration of sodium than the surrounding fluid. The neuron also has a higher concentration of
pshichka [43]

Answer:

a. Remaining at rest requires the use of ATP.

Explanation:

The resting membrane potential is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump. The sodium potassium pump does this by actively pumping sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions inside the cell in a ratio of 3:2. This movement of ions by the sodium-potassium pump is against their concentration gradient. In a neuron at rest, there are more sodium ions outside the cell than there are inside the cell. Also, there are are more potassium ions inside the cell than there are outside the cell. However, there are ion channels through which these ions enter and leave the cell. Sodium ion channels allow sodium to enter the cell following its concentration gradient, whereas, potassium ion channels allow potassium to leave the cell following its concentration gradient. However, more potassium ions leave the cell than do sodium ions enter the cell because of the higher permeability of the cell to potassium ions.

In order to maintain the resting membrane potential, the sodium potassium pump powered by the hydrolysis of an ATP molecules pumps sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell.

<em>Therefore, the correct option is A, as ATP is needed by the sodium-potassium pump in order to maintain the resting membrane potential.</em>

Why don’t all of the particles in an atom contribute to the mass?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of an atom is dependent on its number of protons and neutrons. Electrons have mass, but are too light in comparison to protons and neutrons to contribute towards the overall mass. Their relative mass is about 1/1840 compared to 1 for protons and neutrons, and therefore are not counted in the mass.

Hope this helped!
