The na+/k+ pump removes na+ ions and adds _ k+ ions.

1 answer:

3 0

Sodium potassium pump is an active pump which transfer sodium and potassium ions across the membrane with the expenditure of energy in the form of ATP.

This kind of pump is generally used in nerve cells.

The pump works against the concentration gradient as the pump moves three Na+ ions outside the cell and two K+ ions inside the cell, though there is a high concentration of Na+ outside the cell and a low concentration of K+ outside the cell.

Answer: The frequency of this light is $6.62\times 10^{14}s^{-1}$

Explanation:

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use the equation:

$\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}$

where,

$\lambda$ = wavelength of the light = $453nm=453\times 10^{-9}m$

c = speed of light = $3.0\times 10^8m/s$

$\nu$ = frequency of light = ?

$\nu=\frac{3.0\times 10^8m/s}{453\times 10^{-9}m}=6.62\times 10^{14}s^{-1}$

The frequency of this light is $6.62\times 10^{14}s^{-1}$

During a 4 hour trip, a boat sailed 70 km in 2 h. Then the boat did not move for 1 hour and traveled 26 km in the last hour. Wha

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

32km/hr

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate the average speed for a boat.

Mathematically, the average speed is the total distance divided by the total time

Let’s get the total distance traveled:

That would be 70km + 26km = 96km

Now the total time taken would be 3 as the boat did not move at all for an hour.

The average speed is thus 96/3 = 32km/hr

I need help!! PLease anyone?? <br><br> 3. critical point.<br><br> 4. Define critical pressure

andrezito [222]

Critical pressure is the pressure of a gas or vapor in its critical state and critical point is a point on a phase diagram at which both the liquid and gas phases of a substance have the same density, and are therefore indistinguishable.
