How do substances dissolve in water??

Biology
2 answers:
Fittoniya [83]2 years ago
6 0
Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. ... Water can become so heavily attracted to a different molecule, like salt (NaCl), that it can disrupt the attractive forces that hold the sodium and chloride in the salt molecule together and, thus, dissolve it.

Archaea differ from bacteria in that archaea Group of answer choices Are prokaryotic. Reproduce by binary fission. Lack peptidog
Radda [10]

Archaea differ from bacteria in that archaea lack peptidoglycan.

<h3>What about archaea and bacteria?</h3>
  • Although archaea lack internal membranes, they do have a cell wall and swim by using flagella.
  • The difference between bacteria and archaea is that bacteria have an ester-linked cell membrane, while archaea have an ether-linked cell membrane.
  • Organelles and other internal membrane-bound structures are not present in the cells of bacteria and archaea.
  • In contrast to eukaryotes, bacteria and archaea do not have a nucleus that separates their genetic material from the rest of the cell.
  • Similar to Eubacteria, Archaea have a polysaccharide and glycoconjugate-rich cell wall.
  • The strong cell borders that archaea form despite not having peptidoglycan make them resistant to high internal osmotic pressure.

The membrane potential of a nerve cell will depolarize (become less negative) if there is an INCREASE in the __.
slava [35]

Answer:

The membrane potential of a nerve cell will depolarize if there is an increase in the positive ions inside the cell.

Explanation:

When nerves are in resting potential it is -70mV. In this stage interior of the cell is negatively charged and outside is more positive. When depolarization occurs the inside cell becomes positive.

This is due to the rush of sodium ions into the cell by voltage-gated channels. Now the inside charge is more positive and the chloride ions move out of the cell. Thus outside becomes more negative.

After some time of depolarization stage, potassium ions move out of the cell making the nerve cell again negative. Now the depolarized stage becomes repolarized by the entry of potassium ions.

During depolarization, the potential of the cell is -55mV.  When repolarization occurs, it is again -70mV. But the potassium channels are open and some of the potassium ions move out of the cell making the inside environment more negative. This is known as hyperpolarization condition.  

This hyperpolarization remains for a short period where action potential can't occur. This period is called the refractory period. Again potassium ions enter into the cell. This results in the resting potential of the neuron again.
