Which statement would be true of a membrane-bound protein that works in conjunction with a sodium–potassium pump during secondar

y active transport?
a. It will be able to transport an ion in both directions across the cell membrane and a small molecule in one direction.
b. It will block a small molecule from moving across the cell membrane in response to an increase in concentration of an ion in the external environment.
c. It will move a small molecule across the cell membrane in response to a build-up in concentration of the molecule in the external environment.
d. Its conformation will change when both an ion and a small molecule bind to it.

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "Its conformation will change when both an ion and a small molecule bind to it".

Explanation:

The secondary active transport is a form of active transport at which a ion (typically Na+ or H+)  is transferred down its electrochemical gradient to the uphill movement of another molecule. Secondary active transport takes place by the conjunctive work of membrane-bound proteins and sodium–potassium pumps. During secondary active transport, both of these proteins change its conformation when an ion and a small molecule bind to it. This change in conformation makes possible that the ions and the small molecules pass through the membrane.

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The correct answer would be option D.

Explanation:

True breeding is a breeding procedure in which the parents would always produce their progeny with the same phenotype characters as the parents carry. This means for every trait these parents are homozygous so their offspring must show a similar phenotype.

In this case, all cattle are true-breeding which means they homozygous alleles show the progeny will also show similar traits which are short stature with brown hides and short horns.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Which type of substance would best dissolve in a solvent that was made of nonpolar molecules.
Studentka2010 [4]
Lthough much of the explanation for why certain substances mix and form solutions and why others do not is beyond the scope of this class, we can get a glimpse at why solutions form by taking a look at the process by which ethanol, C2H5OH, dissolves in water. Ethanol is actually miscible in water, which means that the two liquids can be mixed in any proportion without any limit to their solubility. Much of what we now know about the tendency of particles to become more dispersed can be used to understand this kind of change as well.
Picture a layer of ethanol being carefully added to the top of some water (Figure below). Because the particles of a liquid are moving constantly, some of the ethanol particles at the boundary between the two liquids will immediately move into the water, and some of the water molecules will move into the ethanol. In this process, water-water and ethanol-ethanol attractions are broken and ethanol-water attractions are formed. Because both the ethanol and the water are molecular substances with O−H bonds, the attractions broken between water molecules and the attractions broken between ethanol molecules are hydrogen bonds. The attractions that form between the ethanol and water molecules are also hydrogen bonds (Figure below). There you go
