A chemoorganotroph and a chemolithotroph in the same environment would not compete for - carbon

A chemoorganotroph is an organism that gets its energy from oxidation of reduced organic compounds. A chemolithotroph is someone who is able to use inorganic reduced compounds as a source of their energy. This process is accomplished through oxidation and ATP synthesis.

Explain the differences between diffusion in an open system and diffusion across biological membranes.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Diffusion : Is the movement of molecules / ions from a region of higher to lower concentration. It may or may not occur across a semi permeable membrane.

In diffusion there is no challenge involved as it is along the concentration gradient, but in active transport movement of molecules occur against concentration gradient ie; from lower to higher concentration.

2) For active transport, energy is vital for movement, in this case protein molecules function as molecular pumps to enable the cell accumulate glucose/ions, against concentration gradient. Here metabolic energy ATP is required.

3)Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport in which ions/molecules cross the semi permeable membrane because permeases present in the membrane facilitate the transport.

Like simple diffusion facilitated diffusion doesn't require metabolic energy and simply occurs across the concentration gradient.

4) Osmosis : is movement of water from hypotonic solution (lower concentration) to hypertonic solution (higher concentration) through a semi permeable membrane.

The cell membrane being permeable to water allows to and fro movement of water molecules along the concentration gradient.

Many medications introduced into the bloodstream cannot directly affect the neurons of the cns because
ratelena [41]
The answer to the question above is this: <span>the endothelium of CNS capillaries forms a blood-brain barrier. The blood-brain barrier is actually a mechanism that the capillaries that carry blood to the central nervous system can do. What this barrier does is that it filters and only allows certain substances (and not all), that's why this cannot directly affect the neurons in the central nervous system.</span>

Predict: Why aren't all organisms made of just one cell?
REY [17]
Multicellular organisms use different types of cells to function not just one cell. If cells grew larger that cell would be more demanding.

Sea otters use stones and rocks to break open abalone shells in order to eat the flesh inside. a young sea otter observes other
Vanyuwa [196]
The type of learning that the young sea otter used to be able to perform this task is social learning.
This means that the young otter learned what it is supposed to do from its surroundings - and what is surrounding it is its society of other otters. It is social learning because the otter didn't learn on its own that it needs to break open shells in order to eat what is inside, but rather it saw what the other otters were doing and thus learned it.

What are air pressure, humidity, clouds, and temperature called?
34kurt

Answer: C

Explanation:

Air pressure is the amount of pressure exerted by the air in a particular air mass. Humidity is a measure of the water content of the air mass. Clouds are tiny drops of water or ice that form in the atmosphere. Wind is a process of movement of air that occurs due to the uneven heating of the Earth's surface.
