Answer:

Primary active transport                                                                                              

Explanation:

In a cell, the movement of molecules like calcium ions (Ca²⁺), <em>to a region having high solute concentration from a region having low solute concentration, through the cell membrane requires metabolic energy</em> and is known as Primary active transport.

It is given that the concentration of calcium in the cell (0.3%) is greater than the concentration of calcium in the fluid surrounding the cell (0.1%). <em><u>So the calcium ions move into the cell and the cell obtains more calcium. </u></em>

<u>Therefore, the cell obtains more calcium by the process of Primary active transport.</u>

The pH scale is used to measure the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a solution. The scale runs from 0 (very acidic solutions can have a negative pH) to 14 (very alkaline solutions can have a pH higher than this), while a neutral liquid such as pure water has a pH of 7. The pH is linked to the concentration of hydrogen ions (H +) in the solution. Diluting an acid or alkali affects the concentration of H +<span> ions in a solution and therefore affects the pH. In this activity, we will investigate how diluting an acid or alkali affects the pH.

A large weather balloon filled with helium has a volume of 7.00 x 102 L at STP. Which expression should be used to find the mass
balandron [24]

Answer:

mass of Helium = mole of Helium x Molarmass of Helium

Explanation:

Mole of Helium = volume of Helium/ 22.4dm^3/mol

                          = 7.00 x 10^2/22.4

                          = 31.25mol

Mass of Helium = mole of Helium x Molarmass of Helium

                           = 31.25mol x 4g/mol

                           = 125g
