Answer:

The correct answer is - yes, The ion pumps can actively separate charge; thus, they can create a potential difference.

Explanation:

Ion channels create a potential difference by providing a path for the flow of current across the membrane. Ion pumps such as Na+/K+ pump create a potential difference across the membrane by separating the charge.

In the sodium-potassium pump the movement of ions across the inside and outside of the membrane by active transport. The concentration difference between the inside of the membrane and outside of the membrane causes a potential difference.

The moon has a higher maximum surface temperature compared to Earth (253 degrees of moon to 136 degrees of Earth), but this also depends on night (which is colder) or day (which is hotter).

The moon has such extreme temperatures because it has no atmosphere that can "reflect" some of the heat from the sun, whereas the earth does.

According to the concept of resource partitioning, which attribute of a community would tend to lead to lower species richness i
melomori [17]
<h2>Species richness </h2>

Explanation:

Resource partitioning is a type of strategy of coexistence among species which allow species to use natural resources in different ways and it may be temporal or spatial

There are two attributes of a community which will tend to lead to lower species richness in a community:

1) Most species are generalists, utilizing a broad spectrum of resources : Species that can live in many different types of environments, and have a varied diet are considered generalists

2) Most species are specialists, utilizing a narrow spectrum of resources: Specialists are those species that require very unique resources, these type of species have a very limited diet or need a specific habitat condition to survive
