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.

Answer:

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.

LDL (low-density lipoprotein) contains
Basile [38]

Answer:The correct answer is " a"

LDL contain protein,triglycerides,phospholipid and cholesterol.

Explanation:

Low density lipoprotein,or LDL,are complex aggregates of lipids and protein.Their function is to transport lipids (fats) around the body,in the bloodstream,and to the cells where its required.Apart from this,it also carries triglycerides,phospholipids and fat soluble vitamins.

Lipoprotein is composed of a hydrophobic core that is made up of polyunsaturated fatty acids and cholesterol molecules,along with a lipid membrane that contains protein called apolipoproteins.

There are 4 major classes of lipoprotein:

•chylomicrons

•very low density lipoprotein(VLDL)

•high density lipoprotein (HDL)

•low density lipoprotein(LDL)

What would be the expected frequency of dewlap extensions and pushups in males while in the presence of females and a predator v
svp [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lower frequency for both dewlap extension and pushups. In the presence of predators and females an increase in the dewlap frequency and pushups is expected as a result of defense and breeding mechanisms mixed while in the second situation we have just breeding mechanisms involved

In the onion root tip cells, which of the following would be evidence of cytokinesis?
koban [17]

The study of onion root tips is widely known for the clear appearance of the stages of mitosis since the chromosomes are large and are clearly visible. They are easily stained with the stainer and are visible clearly under the electron microscope. The phase of mitosis are

Interphase

Prophase

Metaphase

Anaphase

Telophase and

Cytokinesis

Each of these phases show the different stages in which the division of one cell into two daughter cells takes place. The cytokinesis is the final phase in the mitosis cell division. This is the part of cell division process during which the cytoplasm of the cell divides into two equal parts and forms into two daughter cells.

During the cytokinesis process, the spindle apparatus partitions and transports the duplicated chromatids and moves into the cytoplasm of the dividing daughter cells. In this process a dividing structure called the cell plate is formed to distinguish the daughter cells. This cell plate later grows into a double layered cell wall which then splits the parent cell into two separate cells.

Hence the option D is the right answer
