Cells must use energy to move a substance against a concentration gradient i.e., from a compartment with a low concentration of

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Transport of sodium ions out of the cell

Transport of potassium into the cells

Transport of calcium ions out of cell

Transport of calcium ions OUT OF the cytoplasm of a cell and INTO an organelle that has a high concentration of calcium ions.

Explanation:

In general the concentration of sodium ion is higher outside the cell in the extracellular fluid and the concentration of potassium ion is higher inside the cell.

During an active transport, a cell uses energy to move molecules against the gradient as a part of primary active transport. In the secondary active transport, the molecules move as per the electrochemical gradient established by the primary active transport.

In primary active transport, sodium ion moves out of the cell and potassium ion moves into the cell through the assistance of sodium potassium pump. In order to maintain the stability, calcium ion from the sarcoplasmic reticulum is pumped out of the cell

Hence , the correct answers are

Transport of sodium ions out of the cell

Transport of potassium into the cells

Transport of calcium ions out of cell

Transport of calcium ions OUT OF the cytoplasm of a cell and INTO an organelle that has a high concentration of calcium ions.

Explain how the inheritance pattern shown in figure 1 supports a role for chloroplast genes in the production of chlorphyll in t

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Answer b) The result of the experiment identifies that the color of the egg donor branch (parent) prevailed and assigned the color of the offspring.

-The female parental branches that were pure green or pure white had children of pure green or pure white, respectively.

- The female parental branches that were variegated allow to obtain the three types of offspring.

It is evident that the chloroplast shows maternal inheritance.

The branch that is pure green will produce eggs with green chloroplasts that will give rise to a pure green offspring. Thus, a pure white branch will have offspring with ovules with an exclusive content of white chloroplasts and will give rise to a pure white offspring.

If a branch is variegated, it is combined, some with only functional chloroplasts, some with only non-functional chloroplasts, and some with a mixture of chloroplasts. All three types of cells can give rise to ovules, leading to green offspring, white offspring, and variegated offspring.
