B) They maintain balance in the cell.

Kay [80]

Answer:

1. Part A: No

2. Part B: Yes

3: Part C : Yes

4: Part D : No

Explanation:

1) Part A: Facilitated diffusion of glucose into a muscle cell:

No; sodium ion co - transport is required for active transport of glucose but not for facilitated diffusion of glucose

2) Part B: Active transport of dietary phenylalanine across the intestinal mucosa:

Yes; co - transport of sodium ions drives the inward movement of amino acids and can only occur if sodium ions are actively pumped back out again.

3) Part C: Uptake of potassium ions by red blood cells:

Yes; uptake of potassium ions can occur only via a pump that couples the inward pumping of potassium ions to the outward pumping of sodium ions.

4) Part D: Active uptake of lactose by the bacteria in your intestine

No; active uptake of sugars and amino acids in bacteria is driven by a proton gradient.

Mkey [24]

The two ways the endocrine system and the nervous system are different in communication, is that the nervous system responds rapidly to short-term changes in the body by sending electrical impulses. And with the endocrine system, it takes longer, so it's a long-term effect until it notices any changes and when it does, it sends chemical messengers known as hormones into the body.

Now, how they are similar, is because both the nervous and endocrine systems work together to maintain homeostasis.
