Answer:  

A trans membrane protein is a type of integral protein that is found in the entire cell membrane and the membrane protein is attached to the cell membrane.

Many trans membrane proteins functions as channel or gateway which allows the transport of the specific materials which cannot be transported through other means.

The other materials which cannot be transferred by simple diffusion, osmosis or other means is transported by the trans membrane proteins.

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

A. 60 grams protein

B. 74 grams of protein

Explanation:

The amount of protein needed depends on weight and lifestyle. The daily minimum recommended by the National Institutes of Health is 0.36 grams per pound for a sedentary person. But the daily optimal intake for this same sedentary person is 0,8 grams of protein per kg of body weight. On the other hand hand, adults with a more active lifestyle need more protein in their body, the intake should be between 1,2 and 2,0 grams of protein per kg. For example, endurance runners need up to 1,4 and strength training athletes need up to 1.8 g of protein per kg.

The first step for calculating protein requirements is calculate the weight in kilograms, so we need to divide the weight in pounds by 2,2.

154lb/2,2= 70 kilograms

Then we have to multiply the weight in kg, times the number of protein needed per day, 0,8 for a sedentary healthy adult.

70kg x 0,8= 56 grams

Part A:

165-pound (lb) male who is healthy but sedentary

165 lb/2.2 = 75 kg

75 kg x 0,8 = 60 grams protein per day

Part B. Sarah is moderately active so we need to use a number between 1,2 and 2, since shes active but not very active we can use the 1,2.

136-lb/2,2= 62 kg

62 kg x 1,2 = 74 grams of protein

Sever21 [200]

Answer: B voltage-gated potassium channels

Explanation:#

Tetraethylammonium is a pH- potassium channel  blocker.

Therefore, it prevents the escape  of potassium ions from the axoplasm, which makes it ( axoplam) positive from the rise in potassium ions concentration , since potassium ion is positive charged and intracellular ion . This initiate repolarization which returns to membrane state potential.

Since it is pH -potassium ion blocker; it does not affect the voltage-gated sodium ion channels, so action potential can occur. But after the sodium gated channels were closed,action potential drops but the concentration of potassium rises because  :

1. They are naturally intracellular ions

2. They cannot leave the axoplasm because the channels has been shut. Therefore this stabilizes the membrane potential
