Answer: It depends on if your only talking about plants if so the answer is coal.

At one time, membrane biologists thought that transport proteins might act by binding a solute molecule or ion on one side of th
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The process of passage of different molecules, solutes, and liquids, through the phospholipid bilayer in human cells, and really in all animal cells, is highly dependent on a tight coordination between chemical, and thermodynamic balances, that will collaborate in these elements being able to pass, or not pass, through a cell´s membrane, and activate other mechanisms within the cell when their passage is not possible. Unlike what was once believed, that transport proteins were like buses parked at the membrane and waiting to be loaded with molecules to later remove themselves from the membrane and carry their load into the cytoplasm, scientific research has found that this is definitely so, and that transport proteins do not come off the layer to transport  molecules. They are permanently anchored to the membrane and through a series of second messenger systems, energy produced by the passage of certain ions like potassium and sodium, and other such processes, these transport proteins become activated, allow the passage of molecules and change them in such a way that they can be taken into the cell in vesicles, or, they will anchor them to second messengers, who will be responsible for carrying the molecule inside.

From the list of words given and the two sentences down below, which are two reasons why the earlier believed models for transport proteins are not correct would be:

1. Integral membrane proteins are embedded stably in the membrane and protrude from one or both side based on their hydrophobic, or hydrophilic, regions. These sides will not switch because of the disbalance that would be created if the two sides had to be switched chemically to allow them to pass to the opposie sides.

2. For protein to traverse a membrane, movement of its hydrophilic regions through the interior of the membrane would be required, which would be highly endergonic and hence thermodynamically improbable.

In a food chain 200 kg of wheat is fed on by 18 kg of mice which in turn are eaten by 1kg of hawk. What is the percentage energy
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.1% of energy

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers absorb only 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is dissipated in the environment.  

At each trophic level occurs an energy transfer to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.

If wheat transferred 10% of the energy to mice, and of that 10% mice transferred 10% of the energy to hawk, then the percentage of energy transferred from the first trophic level to the third equals 0.1%.

10% (1st TL-2nd TL) / 10% (2nd TL - 3rd TL) = 0.1% (1stTL - 3rd TL)

<em>TL = Trophic level           </em>
