What would be the expected result if a competitive, nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP were applied to the cytoplasmic side of a plas

ma membrane that contained a large concentration of the Na+/K+ pump? The cell would accumulate Na+, but there would be no effect on K+. Both Na+ and K+ would accumulate outside of the cell. The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations. The cell would accumulate K+, but there would be no effect on Na+.

Answer:

The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations.

Explanation:

Na+/K+ ATPase exists in two forms: Its phosphorylated form has a high affinity for K+ and low affinity for Na+. ATP hydrolysis and phosphorylation of the Na+/K+ pump favor the release of Na+ outside the cell and binding of K+ ions from the outside of the cell. Dephosphorylation of the pump increases its affinity for Na+ and reduces that for K+ ions resulting in the release of K+ ions inside the cells and binding to the Na+ from the cells.  

The presence of ATP analog would not allow the pump to obtain its phosphorylated form. Therefore, Na+ ions would not be released outside the cells. This would increase the Na+ concentration inside the cell above the normal. Similarly, the pump would not be able to pick the K+ from the outside of the cell resulting in reduced cellular K+ concentration below the normal range.

Which of the following pairs of protists and their ecological roles are correctly matched?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The correct pair is A: "apicomplexans—parasites of animals"

Explanation:

  • Euglenophyta is a group of unicellular, eukaryotic organisms. They are small, free-living forms, or parasites that present different feeding mechanisms and behaviors, such as heterotrophy, autotrophy, or mixotrophy.
  • Dinoflagellates are unicellular, flagellated, free-living protists that might form colonies. Most of them are autotrophic organisms but some of them are heterotrophic, or mixotrophic. In these last cases, dinoflagellates can feed on other dinoflagellates, protozoans, or diatoms. They can also be parasites.
  • Entamoebas are endoparasitic organisms with no mitochondria as an adaptation of living in environments with low oxygen concentration.
  • Apicomplexa is a unicellular, protist group. They have medical and economic importance as they are<u> animals</u> and human parasites. They have an apical complex that helps them to fixate to the host cell and release a substance that provokes an invagination in the host membrane. This invagination allows the parasite to get into the host cell.
