what are the similarities and differences between facilitated diffusion and active transport by a protein pump

Biology

Dominik [7]2 years ago
6 0
In facilitated diffusion, ions, sugars, and salts are transported across the membrane. In active transport, ions, sugars, and salts are also transported. The second similarity is that both facilitated diffusion and active transport use proteins as their means of transporting their materials to and from the cell.

Animal cells are placed in an isotonic solution. THEN, additional amounts of solute are added to the solution. What happens to t
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The animal cell will shrink due to loss of water to the external solution

Explanation:

An isotonic solution is that solution which has equal concentration with its external environment. Hence, no net movement of water occurs in an isotonic solution since there is no concentration gradient. Therefore, if an animal cell is placed in an isotonic solution at first, no net movement of water occurs because the intracellular and extracellular concentrations are at equilibrium.

However, if more solutes are added to the solution, it makes the solution HYPERTONIC to the cell i.e greater in concentration. This creates an osmotic gradient and causes water to move out of the animal cell into the solution in accordance to osmotic principles (movement of water from a low concentration of solute to high concentration of solute). This causes the animal cell to likely SHRINK.

How people often take vitamins needlessly or in excess, resulting in excretion in urine of water-soluble vitamins and potentiall
Katyanochek1 [597]

Water-soluble vitamin excesses are swiftly eliminated in urine and infrequently build up to hazardous amounts.

What is water-soluble vitamins ?

The B vitamins — folate, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 — and vitamin C are the nine water-soluble vitamins. A clinical condition caused by a deficiency in one or more of these water-soluble vitamins can have serious morbidity and death effects.

The fat-soluble vitamins are used by your body as needed, and any extra is stored in your tissues and organs. The risk of vitamin poisoning increases when you take too much fat-soluble vitamins on a regular basis, making them more dangerous than water-soluble vitamins.

girl of normal stature is born to two parents with achondroplasia who have very short stature, especially disproportionately sho
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Option D, Zero out of four (0%)

Explanation:

As we know,  achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant pattern. Now a girl having normal stature mate with a partner who also has a normal stature.

Thus let us assume -

Allele for disproportionately short arms and legs be represented by "A"

while allele for normal stature be represented by "a"

Now genotype of parents would be

Female - aa

Male - aa

Thus,

aa x aa

aa, aa, aa, aa

Thus, option D is  correct.
