A semi-permeable membranous sac contains a 4% NaCl, 96% water solution. This sac is placed into a beaker containing a 16% NaCl,

84% water solution. The membrane is permeable to NaCl. Which way will NaCl flow across the membrane (into or out of the sac)?

Effector molecule binding changes the behavior of enzymes by altering the equilibrium between the tense (T) state and the relaxe
9966 [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

<h2>Homotropic effector-</h2>
  • \text{accounts for the sigmoidal nature of a velocity versus substrate concentration curve}
  • \text{An enzyme's substrate.}
<h2>Both -</h2>
  • \text{Works by altering T/R ratio.}

The phrase  \text{"accounts for the sigmoidal nature of a velocity versus }

is relevant and can be applied for homotropic effector molecules since the heterotropic effector molecules have the possibility and affinity to change the sigmoidal curve to a more potential hyperbolic curve contingent upon the allosteric effector to be positive or negative modulator.

The expression isn't relevant for both homotropic and heterotrophic effectors since the two of them can tie to the allosteric site of allosteric enzymatic compounds.

The phrase \text{"works by altering the T/R ratio"} is significant and can be applied for both homotropic and heterotropic effectors.

The expression \text{"an enzyme's substrate"} is significant and applied for homotropic effectors just as when substrate molecules tie to the allosteric site of enzyme then it is regarded as homotropic effectors. The heterotropic effectors are effectors apart from substrate molecules.

The phrase \text{"alters the} \  K_m \ \text{ of an enzyme"} is not applied and insignificant to none of the heterotropic or homotropic effector molecules since K_m is significant for the enzymes that obey the Michaelis-Menten equation, but allosteric enzymes do not obey the Michaelis-Menten equation. Homotropic and heterotropic effectors are viable and efficient for allosteric enzymatic chemicals that don't contain

Drag and drop the steps of digestion to order them from first to last step.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The teeth in the mouth bite off a piece of food.

The teeth continue to break the food into smaller pieces.

Saliva rushes into the mouth and mixes with the broken-down food.

The food travels down the esophagus.

The muscles of the stomach churn the food and continue to break it down.

The broken-down food, called chyme, enters the small intestine.

The remaining food passes into the large intestine. Water is absorbed from the large intestine and the rest of

the material is stored as solid waste until it is excreted from the body.

Epsom salts are solutes that do not pass through cell membranes. If one soaks in a hypertonic solation of Epsom salts, which of
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The net movements of water from the region of higher water potential  to the region of low water potential through  a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. It is a form of diffusion which involves the transport of water molecules.

In this present scenario  water molecules  pass through the selectively permeable membrane from higher water potential in the body, to lower water potential but high solute potential (Epsom salts). The later is called an hypertonic solution,this is because it has higher solute potential ,thus higher salt concentration than the surrounding medium,therefore water pass by osmosis into the Epsom salts.

If one is placed in this solution,the cells shrink as they lose water to the more concentrated Epsom.(hypertonic solution)

However, the body homeostatic mechanism through the kidney  ensure re-absorption of fluid back to the body from the DCT  and CT, via  anti diuretic hormone to preserve the cell and the person.
