d. basic; applied

Explanation:

  • The basic research is a type of research that mainly aims to increase the existing base of the scientific knowledge and hence, in the case of psychology the basic research would increase the knowledge about psychology.
  • Therefore, the purpose of basic research is to add up to the knowledge that already exists.
  • The research that is conducted to especially solve certain problems or answer specific questions is called applied research. Its main aim is to find out the solution for a given problem.
  • Therefore, in the case of psychology applied research is conducted to explore practical problems.

Use the principles of diffusion to explain why oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung go into the blood
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung diffuse into the blood because the concentration of oxygen in the lung's tissues is more than the concentration of oxygen in the blood.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration of the molecule to the region of lower concentration of the same molecule. Molecules in diffusion move <em>downward the concentration</em> <em>gradient</em> created by difference in concentration between two regions until an <em>equilibrium (equal concentration in the two regions)</em> is established.

Oxygen molecules diffuse into the tissues of the lung when an organism breathes-in during the process of breathing. The molecules in the now oxygen-rich tissues eventually start diffusing into the blood in the lung because the blood passing through the lung is always de-oxygenated or has lower oxygen concentration compared to the tissues of the lung.

Oxygenated blood moves into the heart, pumps round the body by the heart, gets depleted of oxygen and eventually find its way back to the lung where the process is repeated.

Diffusion of oxygen from the tissues of the lung into the blood will keep happening as long as oxygen keeps getting dissolved into the lung's tissues and an equilibrium is yet to be established between the tissues and the blood.

creativ13 [48]

Answer: Option C) Animal

The cell wall is tough, flexible and fairly rigid layer that surrounds some types of cells. It is located outside the cell membrane and provides cells with structural support and protection. All BUT ONE type of organism has cells with cell walls. That is an animal

Explanation:

One distinguishing feature of animal cells compared to other living cells is the absence of cell wall.

However, the animal cell possess a cell membrane, with which it regulates substances entering or leaving the cell, and also provide protection and mechanical support for the cell against foreign invaders such as pathogens.

Surprisingly, in a number of reactions in which either ATP or GTP are involved, the critical event is not due to the hydrolysis
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "phosphorylation of glucose".

Explanation:

The phosphorylation of glucose is one of the most important catabolic reactions that allow to obtain energy from sugars. This reaction is the first step of glycolysis and avoid cells to lose sugars by diffusing back to its transporter. The phosphate used to phosphorylate glucose comes from the hydrolysis of one of the three phosphate of adenosine triphosphate. Therefore, phosphorylation of glucose is a processes where ATP hydrolysis is directly involved.
