<span>
MitochondriaMitochondria are rod-shaped organelles that can be considered the power generators of the cell, converting oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the chemical energy "currency" of the cell that powers the cell's metabolic activities. This process is called aerobic respiration and is the reason animals breathe oxygen. Without mitochondria (singular, mitochondrion), higher animals would likely not exist because their cells would only be able to obtain energy from anaerobic respiration (in the absence of oxygen), a process much less efficient than aerobic respiration. In fact, mitochondria enable cells to produce 15 times more ATP than they could otherwise, and complex animals, like humans, need large amounts of energy in order to survive.</span>

Nookie1986 [14]
<span>Let's consider a scenario in which the resting membrane potential changes from −70 mV to +70 mV, but the concentrations of all ions in the intracellular and extracellular fluids are unchanged. Predict how this change in membrane potential affects the movement of Na+. The electrical gradient for Na+ would tend to move Na+ Outside the cell (extracellular) while the chemical gradient for Na+ would tend to move Na+ Inside the cell (intracellular).

The electrical gradient is defined as the + goes to the - and the - goes to the +
Na + has a positive charge, but there's more positive charge inside the cell than outside (due to potassium), therefore, Na+ goes extracellular (out)
The concentration gradient considers that the ion will go from the most concentrated to at least concentrated by passive diffusion so no trans-membrane proteins in the game attention.Na + is very concentrated in extracellular and few intracellular, therefore, it tends to go intracellular (in).</span>

Even though jellies can swim, why are they still classified as plankton?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

All plant and animal organisms that float or move to a limited extent in water, carried by currents and waves are called plankton.

Explanation:

Jellyfish are on the border of plankton and nekton. They are made of gelatinous tissue in which water makes up 98% of the body's composition. Simple anatomy, they have a single-opening digestive tract and a reticular nervous system.

Why are enzymes necessary? to the rate of decomposition to act as a catalyst in chemical reactions to conserve the stored energy
mario62 [17]
Enzymes acts as a catalyst in chemical reactions to speed up the rate of reaction.

Enzymes are not necessarily needed because substrates can disintegrate on their own, but enzymes are helpful to aid this process.
