Answer:

Active transport by the Na+-K+ pump

Explanation:

Active transport by the Na+-K+ pump

Maintenance (and restoration) of the resting ion concentrations depends on the Na+-K+ pump. Once gated ion channels are closed, the combined action of the pump and ion leakage (particularly that of K+) establishes a resting membrane potential in a typical neuron of around âˆ'70 mV.

Aliyah marks a line on her driveway with a piece of chalk and another line 50ft away Then she stands with both feet at the line

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Speed

Explanation:

Aliyah must have been trying to find her speed.

The speed is a measure of how fast an object or a body is and it is calculated by finding the ratio of distance with time. Mathematically,

speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$ with a unit of m/s.

<em>Hence, with the distance measured on the ground and Aliyah trying to find the time it will take her to cover the distance while running, she must have been trying to find how fast she can run, that is, speed. </em>
