A 20-gram ectothermic organism and a 20-gram endothermic organism are placed together in a small, enclosed cage. The cage is hel

d at a temperature of 32°C for one hour. Then, the temperature of the cage is raised to 45°C. Which of the following would you expect to be true after one hour at 45°C?
The metabolic rate of both organisms would increase.
The metabolic rate of both organisms would remain unchanged.
The metabolic rate of the ectothermic organism would increase, and the metabolic rate of the endothermic organism would decrease.
The metabolic rate of the ectothermic organism would increase, and the metabolic rate of the endothermic organism would remain unchanged.

Answer:

The correct answer is the option "The metabolic rate of the ectothermic organism would increase, and the metabolic rate of the endothermic organism would remain unchanged"

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

First we will define what ectothermia and endothermia means.

Ectothermic is a living being that regulates its temperature according to the external temperature.

Endothermic is a living being that regulates its internal temperature regardless of the ambient temperature.

After this analysis we will conclude that the correct answer is the option "The metabolic rate of the ectothermic organism would increase, and the metabolic rate of the endothermic organism would remain unchanged"

When the cardiac muscle cell is at rest, the concentration of _____________ is greater on the outside of the cell?
nordsb [41]

When the cardiac muscle cell is at rest, the concentration of sodium and calcium is greater on the outside of the cell.

The resting membrane potential (the cardiac muscle cell is at rest) is characterized by more negatively charged inside of the membrane comparing to the outside. The main ions found outside the cell at rest are: sodium (Na+), and chloride (Cl−), and Ca2+ whereas inside the cell it is mainly potassium (K+).

Answer:

<h2>Ethylene is a gaseous hormone in plants, it is a fruit ripening hormone.</h2>

Explanation:

Ethylene is a chemical signal through which ripening fruits trigger the ripening process in fruits, Studies on components of ethylene signaling have shown a linear transduction pathway leading to the activation of ethylene response factors. However, the whole pathway by which ethylene selects the ripening-related genes and interacts with other signaling pathways to regulate the ripening process still not yet fully known. Most fruits produce ethylene that starts the ripening process. Its level in under-ripe fruit is very low, but as fruit develop, the production of ethylene become larger that speed up the ripening process of fruit.
