Viruses are regarded as being on the borderline of living and non-living because it exhibits characteristics of both living and non-living organisms. Inside a host, the virus can act as a living organism using the host's cellular system while outside the host, the virus crystallizes that makes them incapable of conducting metabolic activities.

Which best describes how the oxygen molecules will move? A.Oxygen will move from an area of higher concentration (inside the cel

jek_recluse [69]

D.Oxygen will diffuse from an area of higher concentration (outside the cell) to an area of lower concentration (inside the cell). This is because cells respire constantly, as this process uses up oxygen cells will contain less oxygen than its surroundings. Oxygen moves by the process of diffusion, in diffusion a molecule will always move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.

During depolarization, which of the following statements about voltage-gated ion channels is TRUE

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

In relation to voltage-gated ion channels, when depolarization occurs, Na⁺ gates open while K⁺ gates remain closed.

Explanation:

Depolarization is a phenomenon that occurs in cells like neurons, and depends on the distribution of ions in extracellular spaces and intraceluar.

Na⁺ is a predominantly extracellular cation.
K⁺ has a high intracellular concentration.

This distribution occurs when the membrane potential is at rest, with a negative intracellular value.

Depolarization involves opening the Na⁺ channels, so that this cation enters the intracellular space, causing a change in cell voltage. Increasing Na⁺ concentration in intracellular space progressively produces an action potential, resulting in an electrical signal.

While depolarization occurs, K⁺ channels remain closed, limiting the output of this cation to extracellular space, which would prevent the action potential from occurring.
