The sodium-potassium pump does not do which of the following actions?

1 answer:

7 0

The sodium-potassium pump does not allow the movement of sodium molecules against their concentration gradient into the cell with the use of ATP molecules.

In sodium-potassium pump, the sodium moves outside the cell whereas potassium moves inside the cell with the help of using ATP molecules. The sodium-potassium pump maintains the gradient of higher concentration of sodium extracellularly means outside the cell and a higher level of potassium intracellularly means inside the cell. This process is done only in the presence of ATP molecules that provides a force for the movement of sodium and potassium so we can conclude that no movement of sodium occur inside the cell in the sodium-potassium pump.

How can organisms be so unique if the nucleotides making up dna are all the same between organisms?

sergejj [24]

Answer:

All organisms are made up of the four nucleotide bases of the DNA. Yet still all organisms are different from one another due to the sequence of the arrangement of these nucleotides. The pattern of arrangement of the nucleotides determines which organisms will be more similar and which will be more different from one another. The pattern of arrangement leads to the formation of genetic code which will differ in organisms. Hence, all organisms are made of the 4 nucleotides but differ due to the pattern of arrangement of the nucleotides.

If you drink a gallon or more of fresh water at a single sitting, what happens to your blood and then what might happen to the c

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

I hope this will help

Explanation:

When you drink too much water, your kidneys can't get rid of the excess water. The sodium content of your blood becomes diluted. This is called hyponatremia and it can be life-threatening.

Hyponatremia is a low sodium concentration in the blood. It is generally defined as a sodium concentration of less than 135 mmol/L (135 mEq/L), with severe hyponatremia being below 120 mEq/L. Symptoms can be absent, mild or severe. Mild symptoms include a decreased ability to think, headaches, nausea, and poor balance.
