The correct option is: c. petroleum jelly, d. Polyethylene glycol 4000/600 mixture
Explanation:
Topical medications are used for the treatment of ailments and include ointments, gels, lotions creams etc. that can applied directly on the surface of the body i.e. skin.
An ointment base medication gets rapidly absorbed into the skin. Some of the examples of <u>ointment bases</u> include water-soluble bases: <u>polyethylene glycol</u>, hydrocarbon bases: <u>petroleum jelly</u>, paraffin wax.
Answer:
The correct answer is "Secondary active transport".
Explanation:
Secondary active transport is a form of across the membrane transport that involves a transporter protein catalyzing the movement of an ion down its electrochemical gradient to allow the movement of another molecule or ion uphill to its concentration/electrochemical gradient. In this example, the transporter protein (antiporter), move 3 Na⁺ into the cell in exchange for one Ca⁺⁺ leaving the cell. The 3 Na⁺ are the ions moved down its electrochemical gradient and the one Ca⁺⁺ is the ion moved uphill its electrochemical gradient, because Na+ and Ca⁺⁺are more concentrated in the solution than inside the cell. Therefore, this scenario is an example of secondary active transport.
