Hey there!

An ion is any atom with an electric charge. This can be negative or positive.

To see which one of these is an ion, first see what causes an electric charge. Positive charges are caused by protons. One proton = one positive. Negative charges are caused by electrons. One electron = one negative. Thus, when the number of protons and electrons are equal, this makes it so there is no overall charge. Thus, to make an ion, the number of protons and electrons must be unequal.

When we look at the answer choice, we can see that the number of protons and electrons are equal for every single choice except for choice b. Thus, your answer is b.

Hope this helps!

Ugo [173]

Answer:

The sodium-potassium pump is an active transporter because it needs to move sodium and potassium ions against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

You have to think of it as outside vs inside the cell.

Outside the cell, you have 5mM K and 150mM Na. Inside the cell, you have 100mM K and 10mM sodium. Without the transporter then the ions would go from greater concentration to lower concentration.  Energy keeps the ions going from the way they would naturally happen.

Answer:

Dominant sporophyte generation and microscopic  gametophyte within sporophyte.

Explanation:

The sporophyte is the dominant generation, but multicellular male and female gametophytes which are microscopic in nature with the female gametophyte made up of few cells being buried in the tissues of the sporophyte and the male gametophyte, the pollen grain, being carried from plant to plant by wind, water, or animals. these are all produced within the flowers of the sporophyte.
