Answer:

The correct answer is option (C) "After splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane".

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic chemical molecule considered the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer, for the high level of energy that is released when ATP is breakdown into adenosine diphosphate (ADP). ATP provides energy to drive many processes in living cells. One example of how the chemical potential energy of this molecule is turned into work is that after splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane. The energy of the splitting of ATP into ADP will provide energy for the protein being able to change shape, resulting in pumping ions across a membrane.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • The Moon is divided into light area lunar highlands and a dark area called Lunar Maria.

yKpoI14uk [10]
There are choices for this question namely:

<span>right primary
right secondary
left secondary
left primary
</span>
The correct answer is "right primary" or the right main bronchus. Anatomically, the right main bronchus has a larger diameter and a steeper angle (to compensate for the location of the liver). When a foreign body is accidentally aspirated, most commonly, it will lodge on the right main bronchus; especially in children.
