Cells must be alive to use energy and do work dose passive transport occur in a cell that is dead? Why or why not?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

<h3>Yes, Passive transport can occur in dead cells.</h3>

Explanation:

For passive transport to occur, a concentration gradient has to be formed across a permeable or semi-permeable membrane. If the cell membrane of the dead cell, which is a semipermeable membrane, is intact and a concentration gradient has formed on both sides, passive transport can occur.

A concentration gradient is the difference in the concentration of solute molecules  across the membrane. Passive transport will allow solute molecules to travel from the higher concentration of the solute to the lower concentration across a membrane till equilibrium is reached, that is, both the sides of the membrane has equal concentration of the solute.

The transport of the solvent can occur as well, from higher concentration to lower concentration.

Which of the following is a factor that determines the rate of impulse propagation, or conduction velocity, along an axon?a) len
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

c) degree of myelination of the axon

Explanation:

Axon conduction velocity can be defined as the speed at which an electrochemical impulse propagates down an axon.

Factors that determines the rate of conduction velocity are:

  • axon diameter-larger diameter axons have a higher conduction velocity
  • sheeth-a myelin sheath increases the rate of impulse propagatio

Different types of neurons will have different speed of propagation because of their different properties and because different types of information are sent.

Blood groups are a classic example of ______________ inheritance in humans?
Keith_Richards [23]
<span>There are multiple types of inheritance mechanisms in humans. The well-known ones are include autosomal dominant, where only one copy of the gene is enought for the individual to express that characteristic. Another type is autosomal recessive, in which an individual must receive a copy of the gene from both parents in order for the gene to be expressed. The type concerning blood groups is codominance and it is when two different versions of a gene are expressed. Both of the alleles have a role in the appearance of the characteristic. Both the A blood group and B blood groups are dominant; however, if both alleles are present, the individual has an AB blood group.</span><span />

It was once thought that decaying meat turns into maggots. Careful experimentation by scientist demonstrated that maggots actual
Ronch [10]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

<em>Aristotle initially thought that life arose spontaneously and he backed this up by showing that a lump of meat left uncovered in a glass jar spontaneously produced maggots.</em>

The spontaneous generation theory was later disproved by another scientist, Francesco Redi. He showed that a covered jar containing a lump of meat will not spontaneously produce maggots unless flies are allowed to perch and lay their eggs on the meat. The eggs of the flies give rise to the maggots and not the meat.

<u>It thus showed that new life does not arise spontaneously but rather through development and reproduction.</u>
