Answer:
Active transport necessary for the sodium-potassium pump to work because It allows sodium and potassium to move against their concentration gradient.
Explanation:
The transport of sodium ions outside the cell and potassium ions inside the cells is called active transport that requires the ATP hydrolysis. ATP provides the energy required for this procedure. This sodium-Potassium pump works to move the ions against their concentration gradient to keep the sodium concentration low inside the cells and potassium concentration high inside the cells.
Answer:
positive geotropism
Explanation:
The answer is positive geotropism
The right answer is Child abuse.
Cannabis (marijuana) during pregnancy is dangerous for the fetus
During pregnancy, the active component of cannabis, which is THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), can go into the placenta and affect the fetus, including its birth weight (like the case in the question here) and brain function, reducing the baby's IQ and attention capacity.
Depending on the type of drug and the quantity consumed, it is also possible that the baby suffers from weaning at birth, that is to say from deprivation (inconsolable crying, irritability, tremors, feeding difficulties, etc.). .
Cannabis may also have longer-term effects in children (learning disabilities, behavioral problems, hyperactivity, etc.).
Out of the following given choices;
a. they increase the amount of energy transferred from the
lungs to the blood
b. they increase the flexibility of the lungs as they expand
during inhalation
c. they increase the volume of the lungs, allowing more
oxygen to be inhaled
d. they increase the surface area of the lungs, allowing the
efficient gas exchange
The answer is D. Due to their microscopic nature, they are numerous in the lungs and are also circular-shaped so as to increase the surface area for gaseous exchange.
Other characteristics of alveoli that increase gas exchange are that they thinned-walled (with only a layer of cells) and moist.
