professor190 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The leak channels allow Na+ and K+ to move across the cell membrane down their gradients (from a high concentration toward a lower concentration). With the combined ion pumping and leakage of ions, the cell can maintain a stable resting membrane potential.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Option 1, No. The highest frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is 0.5

Explanation:

As per Hardy Weinberg’s equilibrium principle, the maximum frequency of heterozytotic individuals occur only when half of the population is dominant and recessive homozygous.  

In other way when the sum of frequency of dominant and recessive species is equal to 0.5, only then the frequency of heterozygotes is maximum which in any case would not be higher than 0.5.  

Hence, option 1 is correct

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

E. 3, 6, 7, 4, 5, 8, 1, 2

Explanation:

Systemic circulation is the circulatory pathway which is involved in the transport of the oxygenated blood to the body when pumped by the heart through arteries, capillaries and then back to the heart.

In the given question, the order of vessels in the systemic circulation has been asked which begins with the entry of the deoxygenated blood to the heart.

1. The deoxygenated blood enters the blood from vena cava to the right ventricle.

2. From the right ventricle, the blood enters the right atrium which pumps the de-oxygenated blood to the lungs through an artery called the pulmonary artery.

3. In the lungs, the blood becomes oxygen rich and is returned to the left atrium through the pulmonary vein.

4. The blood then enters the left atrium which is then pumped to the body through the main artery called the aorta.

This completes the systemic circulation and thus, Option-E is correct.
