The Na+/K+ ATPase pump is an example of active transport, which requires energy to move substances from a higher concentration t

o a lower concentration.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Active transport is one of the two major kinds of transport (the other being passive transport). Active transport involves moving substances against their concentration gradient i.e. from where they are low in concentration to where they are high in concentration. Hence, energy input in form of ATP is required by the cell to make this occur.

As stated in this question, the Na+/K+ (sodium-pottasium) ATPase pump is an example of active transport, which requires energy to move sodium ions. However, in active transport, substances are moved from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and not otherwise as depicted in this question, hence, it is FALSE.

Nucleic acids are important information storage molecules present in virtually every cell. Which processes is carried out by a c
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Transcription

Explanation:

The DNA is stored in the nucleus of the cell. The DNA has the sequence information of every gene. This means that depending on the DNA sequence, we are going to have a particular protein. The transcription is a process within the cell in which an enzyme called polymerase enters the nucleus and transcribes the DNA into another molecule, RNA. Let's say that this process makes another "copy" of the nucleic acid sequence, but now the RNA is able to get out of the nucleus carrying genetic information into the cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, the RNA is translated into protein. During the translation, a ribosome "reads" the RNA and builds the protein depending on the nucleic acid sequence. To sum up, we can say that the transcription is the first process involved in accessing the information from the DNA.

GaryK [48]

The answer here is D, and it's kind of obvious. But you probably already knew the answer and are just doing this for piece of mind.

Explanation: Just the fact that we don't know whether or not there even is extraterrestrial life rules out every other answer, without even needing to go in depth.

(Okay, I read your question completely wrong, it's asking for which one of these has been solved isn't it?)

This is tough because all of these other than D have been figured out. Go with the methane atmosphere then.
