A large gradient for sodium exists across a cell membrane. Channels are opened and sodium diffuses freely through the channels.

How will this movement affect the free energy, entropy, enthalpy, and stability of this system? Note: the system is the sodium ions inside and outside of the cell.

Answer:

Once the sodium channels opens and sodium is allowed to diffuse freely in and out of the cell, this will cause a large change in entropy and enthalpy. Values for both these quantities will increase significantly, however, the change in free energy will be small when we compare the open and closed state of the sodium channel. With regards to the stability of the system, it will reach equilibrium because the concentration of sodium ions is being allowed to diffuse without any regulation.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

A food which has been grown without the use of some but not all synthetic pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, or bio engineering could be labeled--- True

What are organic foods ?

-Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides, fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients, antibiotics, or growth hormones

When a food is labeled as organic this means that no pesticides have been used in its production?

Produce can be called organic if it's certified to have grown on soil that had no prohibited substances applied for three years prior to harvest. Prohibited substances include most synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.

Are organic food safer?

According to USDA data, organic foods have fewer pesticide residues than conventionally grown produce. But the amounts for both types of produce are within the level for safe consumption.

What is the meaning of organic farming?

organic farming, agricultural system that uses ecologically based pest controls and biological fertilizers derived largely from animal and plant wastes and nitrogen-fixing cover crops.

How can atmospheric nitrogen be converted to ammonium ions or nitrate ions?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer: When a plant or animal dies, or an animal voids waste products, the initial form of nitrogen is organic. Bacteria and fungi in the soil produce enzymes that convert the organic nitrogen back into inorganic ammonium ions (NH4 +). Ammonium is converted to nitrite ions (NO2 -) by soil bacteria like Nitrosomonas

Explanation: Hope it helps

New Zealand has a population of 4,326,380 and has an area of 103,736 mi squared while Australia has an area of 2,967,909 mi squa
Inga [223]

Population density refers to the determination of population in a unit area or unit volume. It is generally applicable to the living species, and majorly to the humans. It is an essential geographical term and its a quantity of type number density.  

In the given case, it can be seen that New Zealand exhibits a smaller population in comparison to Australia, but it has a greater population density as it encompasses a much smaller region.  

On the other hand, the population of Australia is about five times more than New Zealand, but Australia covers about 30 times more area in comparison to what New Zealand covers.
