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!

This is false.

These are called perennial plants. Annual plants go through their entire life process within a single year and stop existing, meaning they can't produce fruit every year.

motikmotik

Answer:

A)Ocean floor evidence of sea floor spreading.

Explanation:

evidence pointing to the steps or process  of seafloor spreading and effective plate motion This theory was accepted by many scientist because  it depended  on hard evidence and could describe most of the modern geological structures such as ocean basins,

What is the tectonic theory?

The theory of plate tectonics plates  says  that Earth's surface is made of rigid slabs of rock, or plates, that move to each other.

What is a tectonic plate?

They are huge slabs of rock that cover the earths mantle When a earthquake occurs that's because the tectonic plate is breaking  that makes the ground shake  During the earthquake and afterward, the plates keep on shaking until they are stuck again!
