Question:
Which of the following statements correctly describe(s) the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels? Select all that apply.
A)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is facilitated by the Na+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.
B)The diffusion of Na+ ions into the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane.
C)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the K+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane.
D)The diffusion of K+ ions out of the cell is impeded by the electrical gradient across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient is larger for Na+ than for K+.
Answer:
"The concentration gradient and the electro-chemical gradient" describes the driving forces for diffusion of Na+ and K+ ions through their respective channels
Explanation:
The Na ions diffusion inside the cell is facilitated by the concentration gradient of the Na ions which is present across the plasma membrane. Hence, the diffusion of the K ions which is present outside the cell and will be impeded due to the electrical gradient which is present near the plasma membrane. Thus, the electro-chemical gradient is greater as compared to the Na ion than that of the K ion.
Since cells are hard to see the microscope helped them see. scientist were able to actually see cells in tissues placed under the microscope.
Answer:
uhhhhh not sure i cant see it
Explanation:
Answer:
FADH2 is a reducing agent.
FAD is an oxidizing agent.
Explanation:
The full form of FAD is flavin adenine dinucleotide. It is mainly a redox-active coenzyme which is associated with the different proteins and is involved with the enzymatic reactions in the metabolism.
FAD is obtained by donating or accepting electrons.
In the citric acid cycle,
succinate + FAD → fumarate + 
Thus we see that FAD is an oxidizing agent while
is a reducing agent.
