Answer:
a. Remaining at rest requires the use of ATP.
Explanation:
The resting membrane potential is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump. The sodium potassium pump does this by actively pumping sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions inside the cell in a ratio of 3:2. This movement of ions by the sodium-potassium pump is against their concentration gradient. In a neuron at rest, there are more sodium ions outside the cell than there are inside the cell. Also, there are are more potassium ions inside the cell than there are outside the cell. However, there are ion channels through which these ions enter and leave the cell. Sodium ion channels allow sodium to enter the cell following its concentration gradient, whereas, potassium ion channels allow potassium to leave the cell following its concentration gradient. However, more potassium ions leave the cell than do sodium ions enter the cell because of the higher permeability of the cell to potassium ions.
In order to maintain the resting membrane potential, the sodium potassium pump powered by the hydrolysis of an ATP molecules pumps sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell.
<em>Therefore, the correct option is A, as ATP is needed by the sodium-potassium pump in order to maintain the resting membrane potential.</em>
Answer: 20.7 kJ
Explanation:
According to first law of thermodynamics:
=Change in internal energy
q = heat absorbed or released
w = work done or by the system
w = work done on the system=
{Work is done on the system is positive as the final volume is lesser than initial volume}
w = 4.51 kcal =
(1kcal = 4.184kJ)
q = +1.79 kJ {Heat absorbed by the system is positive}

Thus
for a system that receives 1.79 kJ of heat from surroundings and has 4.51 kcal of work done on it at the same time is 20.7 kJ

Explanation:
It is known that like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other.
As the balloons are facing each other with like charges so they will repel each other. Hence, they will move apart.
But when balloons were moved further apart then interaction between them will decrease and then there will be no force of repulsion or force of attraction.
