Sometimes while traveling, people are infected with a protist parasite, Giardia. One of the side effects of Giardia infection is

diarrhea. When someone has diarrhea, they lose excessive water and salt from the body. The result is loss of Na+, dehydration that leads to decreased extracellular volume and plasma volume, and decreased arterial blood pressure. Given this would the vasopressin secretion of a person infected with Giardia:
increase
decrease

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

Vasopressin levels in Giardiasis will increase to reduce water loss and to prevent the dehydration. The hormone Vasopressin targets the collecting ducts of nephrons and stimulates the water reabsorption. The overall result is the formation of concentrated urine to prevent any further water loss from the body. Water retention in the body also helps to restore the blood volume and blood pressure in a person affected with Giardia.

What is the most important distinction between the membrane transporters known as channel proteins and those known as carrier pr
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Channel proteins form hydrophilic channels to passively transport substances down the concentration gradient.

Carrier proteins bind to substances to transport them actively against the concentration gradient. They do not form channels.

Explanation:

Channel proteins are the membrane proteins that serve in transport of small polar molecules and/or ions by making a hydrophilic pore across the membrane. These molecules diffusion through the pore and exhibit facilitated diffusion.  

Carrier proteins are the membrane proteins that transport the substances across the membrane by binding to them. They do not form the hydrophilic channels. Carrier proteins serve in the active transport of molecules against the concentration gradient.
