<u>Answer</u>:
<em>Sodium potassium pump works by following several steps.
</em>
<u>Explanation</u>:
<em>1. Carrier protein binds three molecules of Na+
</em>
<em>2. ATP is split, phosphate bonds to carrier.
</em>
<em>3. Carrier protein changes shape, and deposits Na on the outside of the cell.
</em>
<em>4. Carrier binds two molecules of K
</em>
<em>5. Phosphate is released.
</em>
<em>6. Potassium is released inside the cell
</em>
Sodium -potassium pump is essential to maintain the concentration of sodium and potassium outside and inside the cell respectively.
It is the function of sodium potassium pump to transport sodium out of the cell and potassium inside of the cell against a concentration gradient.
<em>Thus it is an active transport mechanism.

The Gecko. While human-made devices inspired by gecko feet have emerged in recent years, enabling their wearers to slowly scale a glass wall, the possible applications of gecko-adhesion technology go far beyond Spiderman-esque antics. A researcher is looking into how the technology could be applied in a high-precision industrial setting, such as in robot arms used in manufacturing computer chips.
B. Golgi Apparatus.
All eukaryotes have a Golgi apparatus though not all have the other organelles named above. They all have it because of it's indispensable function, transportation of lipids and the preparation for secretion an secretion of proteins.
The other part mentioned have important functions but that varies from cell to cell according to their functions.

Answer:
One of the probable ways to determine how long ago any two species of bacteria diverged from each other is by drawing a phylogenetic tree.
Explanation:
- Phylogenetic tree are trees that show the ancestry of two species of interest and the relationship between them.
- The idea behind the construction of phylogenetic tree is darwins's "descent with modification theory".
- A phylogenetic tree is constructed using the similarities or differences in either physical characteristics, behavorial, or genetic buildup.
- Derived traits shared between the different species are the actual data used to construct a phylogenetic tree.
The answer to the following
