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.

You are dealing with a problem in which the male parent has a genotype of DDmm, while the female parent has DdMm. After doing th
erastova [34]

The sets of alleles for each parent are Dm for the mother and DM, Dm, dM, and dm for the father. This information is fundamental for estimating genotype and allele frequencies in offspring.

<h3>What are alleles?</h3>

Alleles are gene variants for a given gene <em>locus</em>, diploid organisms inherit two alleles for each locus (one from each parent).

Gametes are germinal (haploid) cells that carry specific allele combinations.

The analysis of gamete combinations is fundamental to estimate genotypes and allele frequencies.
