Carrier proteins pick up specific molecules and take them through the cell membrane against the concentration gradient. Examples of active transport include: uptake of glucose by epithelial cells in the villi of the small intestine. uptake of ions from soil water by root hair cells in plants.

Which task would be completed by an ecologist?
Zielflug [23.3K]

The answer is option D "test the effect of cyanide on algae." Ecologist are researchers who study how organisms interact with their environment so in this case they are testing how algae reacts to cyanide. In another example they will be testing how a ape reacts to having a different fruit tree in their habitat. It wouldn't be option A, B, and C because you have to remember the job of a ecologist and the options are not jobs of one.

Hope this helps.

You have a large bottle of 2% saline solution in the lab (2% NaCl, which is sodium chloride). You need 5 ml of 0.1% saline for a
zvonat [6]

Answer:

volume of 2% saline (V₁) = 0.25ml

volume of water = 4.75ml

Explanation:

The requirement in the question is to obtain 0.1% of NaCl from 2% NaCl, and the process is dilution. The general dilution equation is guven by:

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

where:

C₁ = initial concentration = 2%

V₁ = initial volume = ?

C₂ = final concentration = 0.1%

V₂ = final volume = 5ml

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

calculating for V₁

∴ V₁ = (C₂V₂) ÷ C₁

= (0.1% × 5) ÷ 2%

V₁ = 0.25ml

Now, let us calculate the volume of water needed:

V₁ + Volume of water = V₂ (volume of 0.1% NaCl)

0.25 + volume of water = 5

volume of water = 5 - 0.25

volume of water = 4.75ml
