6 0

Answer:

If a large molecule need to move against the concentration gradient the struc of an energy rich compound such as Adenosine tri phosphate or ATP is need to be used.

Explanation:

ATP provides energy to carry out the uphill transport of molecule across the plasma membrane by the helps of specific ion channel.Uphill transport is a type of membrane transport process in which a molecule is being transported against its concentration gradient that means the molecule is moving from low concentration region to high concentration region.

                In general this type of transport is Thermodynamically unfavorable which is made favorable by  the energy derived from the hydrolysis of ATP .

Drag each tile to the correct box. Lucia is walking barefoot in her yard. She accidentally steps on a nail. How will her nervous
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

First the proprioceptors found in the tissues will capture tissue damage and the presence of a continuity solution in the skin, then these receptors will activate the afferent pathway, which is the pathway of pain, which is sensory.

This stimulus that ascends to the central nervous system activates the "flight" mechanism in the face of pain (it is also known as the withdrawal mechanism).

It is in this way that a stimulation is sent to the alpha motor neuron in the form of an action potential as an efferent pathway to the skeletal muscles of the foot and the damaged leg, so that an automatic and involuntary muscle contraction is generated in a matter of millisemas of second after the damage, so the foot is removed from the damage area.

Explanation:

The withdrawal mechanism is a reflex that the human acquires before pain, that is why it is the muscular contraction is automatic and fast once the pain occurs.

So as a summary: 1 - the proprioceptors of the damaged tissue are activated 2- the signal of tissue damage rises as afferent to the CNS 3- the CNS responds by activating a signal that will be sent by interneuronal connections to the alpha motor neuron 4- the signal arrives as potential of action to the alpha motor neuron that innervates the muscles of the surrounding area to which it is damaged 5 - the muscles contract, generating the withdrawal of the limb.

What do the enviroment of a virus have on its life process
Alinara [238K]

Answer:    Viruses do have DNA or RNA, and DNA is the code for life. Like living things, viruses evolve through time and thus can adapt to their environment. But unlike cells, viruses cannot use their genetic material by themselves. They need a living cell in order to function and reproduce; otherwise they are playing dead.
