4 0

Answer:

Three sodium ions are extruded from and two potassium ions are imported into the cell.

Explanation:

Sodium-Potassium pump occurs during active transport in which sodium ions are removed and sent outside the cell while on the other hand, potassium ions are moved inside the cell due to their needs in the cell. Three sodium ions are moves outside the cell whereas two potassium ions are imported into the cell with the use of ATP molecules. The exchange occurs till the equilibrium of inside and outside environment can be achieved.

Volgvan

Answer:

The correct answer is - option A. Glass thermometer.

Explanation:

Glass or basal thermometers are the instruments that are use to measure temperature of any surface or organism. These are best choice for the measuring smaller changes in the temperature which can vary up to 1/10th of the degree to 1/100th of the degree.

In this case the temperature variation is 0.05 in the environment of the Toxicodendron diversilobum (poison oak) which can easily be monitor with the help of this glass temperature.

Thus, the correct answer is - option A. Glass thermometer.

For each of the four major biomolecules,identify the name and structures of its monomer
masya89 [10]

There are four main groups of macromolecules:

1. Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA)-monomers are nucleotides; provide genetic information

2. Proteins-monomers are amino-acids; structural, catalytic, regulatory roles

3. Lipids (fats)-monomer units are free fatty acids; structural, energy, insulation roles

4. Carbohydrates (sugars)-monomer units are monosaccharides (like glucose); energy source, structural function.
