After a dye diffuses uniformly throughout a glass of water, the dye molecules are no longer moving. True or false?
Anton [14]
The answer is false, liquid molecules continue to move even after the concentration is uniform.

Diffusion happens because there’s a concentration gradient between the dye and the water, therefore dye molecules moves to the water area. But note that this is only the net movement of the molecules, which means, even if more molecules are moving towards water, there are still some dye molecules that are moving in the opposite direction.

So, after the concentration is equal, the motion of the dye molecules does not stop, they still move in random directions, but there’s no net movement instead, as there’s no concentration gradient. Remember molecules are always moving in all directions , it just depends on whether there’s a net movement or not. If there’s no net movement, the amount of molecules moving to each and every direction is always equal.

8. when stuff binds to proteins, the proteins change shape. when the action potential reaches the sarcomere, it releases calcium
Aliun [14]

True, the process is called the sliding filament model of muscle contraction.

According to the sliding filament theory, muscle proteins slide past one another to produce movement during muscular contractions. The sliding filament theory postulates that during muscle contraction, the actin (thin filaments) and myosin (thick filaments) of muscle fibers glide past each other while remaining at essentially constant lengths. A protein called myosin transforms ATP (chemical energy) into mechanical energy, causing movement and push. T

his motion causes the muscles to contract and non-muscle cells, like those in the mitosis and meiosis, to move (cell division). Additionally, the actin-myosin interaction and actin polymerization are what cause a cell to move across a surface. When troponin molecules link to calcium ions in filaments, actin filaments' myosin-binding sites become visible, promoting bridge construction. ATP serves as an energy source and powers this process. Myosin molecules' heads undergo ATP hydrolysis, changing their shape and allowing them to bind to actin filaments.
