What would be the expected result if a competitive, nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP were applied to the cytoplasmic side of a plas
ma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na+/K+ pump? What would be the expected result if a competitive, nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP were applied to the cytoplasmic side of a plasma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na+/K+ pump? The cell would accumulate Na+, but there would be no effect on K+. The cell would accumulate K+, but there would be no effect on Na+. The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations. Both Na+ and K+ would accumulate outside of the cell.
The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations.
Explanation:
The Na/⁺K⁺ pump is an ATPase pump which is responsible for maintaining low Na⁺ and high K⁺ concentrations within the cytoplasm while maintaining high Na⁺ and low K⁺ concentrations in the extracellular fluid.
Since these two ions are moved against their concentration gradient, ATP hydrolysis is required to provide the energy for this process. This is done by moving in two K⁺ ions inside while moving three Na⁺ ions outside the cell for every molecule of ATP hydrolysed to ADP and Pi.
If a competitive non-hydrolyzable analog of ATP is applied on the cytoplasmic side of a plasma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump, it will act by inhibiting the action of the Na/⁺K⁺ pump. This will result in an accumulation of Na⁺ ions inside the cell and lower than normal K⁺ ions concentration.
Pollinators range from physical agents, especially the wind (wind pollination is called anemophily), or biotic agents such as insects, birds, bats and other animals (pollination by insects is called entomophily, by birds ornithophily, by bats chiropterophily).
Edaphon is the general term used to reffer to the animals and plants present in the soil.
On the other hand, there is not only one name for the fallen leaves on the forest floor. It could be either plant litter, leaf litter or even tree littler. Although the name suggests it is only leaves, this <u>plant litter</u> could include leaves, barks and twigs that can fall off a tree.
The edaphon its made up of thousands of organisms including a huge number of bacteria, fungi, and arthropods. A good example of organisms living in the soil is an earthworm. Earthworms crawl through the soil feeding from it, digesting part of the organic material and fertilizing it with their excrement.
1. 15% 2. 85% 3. 70% 4. Yes because there is 15% more water outside the cell than inside 5. The water will move inside 6. Swell 7. I'm so sorry to say but I have no idea what type of cell it is. Best of luck!!!
