A cell needs to take up K+ ions, the concentration of Na+ outside the cell is 100 ppm, and inside the cell it is 75 ppm. Which t
nignag [31]

Answer:

active transport

Explanation:

Active transport is the energy-requiring process of pumping molecules and ions across membranes "uphill" against a gradient. The active transport of small molecules orions across a cell membrane is generally carried out by transport proteins that are found in the membrane.

Identify three environmental influences on microbial growth. How does each affect microbial distribution?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1.Temperature

2.Moisture

3. PH: acidic or basic concentration

Explanation:

Different microorganism grow at different temperature. For example, many human-disease-causing microbes have an optimum temperature of 37C, and most of the bacteria do not grow at temperature higher than 45C. This means that any temperature lower than 45C will favor the growth of certain bacteria while higher temperature may cause death or reduction in the population of most. Hence, the effect of temperature on these organisms.

Water is required to dissolve the cell substances in microorganism just like higher animals.  while some can survive under an extremely dry condition, most can't and this could result in death or reduction in population.

PH, a measure of the hydrogen concentration in a solution for most microorganism is between 6-8, too much of acid or base could disrupt the activities of these organisms and a maintained range ensure an optimal survival.

5 factors that affect weather: geographic location/latitude altitude/height above sea level, ocean currents/large lakes, winds,t
Igoryamba

The statement is - True.

The five main factors that determine the weather at a certain place are the:

- geographic location/latitude

It determines the amount of sunlight, as well as the concentration of sun rays, which directly influences the temperature.

- altitude/height above sea level

The lower the place the warmer it is, the higher the place the colder it is, it is a simple rule that applies for all places on the planet, compared with places in their surroundings.

- ocean currents/large lakes

The ocean currents can bring cold and dry or warm and wet air masses, depending on what kind of an ocean current it is. The water also contributes to a more stable weather, with more moderate temperatures because of the thermal properties of the water to cool of and warm up slower than the land.

- winds

The air masses can bring cold and dry or warm and wet weather, so they influence the temperature and precipitation of a place.

- topography

Determines how much a place is exposed to the sunlight and the movement of the air masses.

explain how a change in the sequence of nucleotide in a strand of DNA might cause a protein to malfunction
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer: Proteins are made using DNA as a template. The DNA is turned into RNA, and the RNA is then turned into DNA. 

A change in these nucleotides could end up making some part of the protein different. A single nucleotide change could be silent (no change in the protein) or could change a single amino acid (amino acids are the building blocks of proteins). If that was an important amino acid, the protein might not function at all! A silent change can occur because the same set of nucleotides sometimes makes the same final amino acid (for example, reading "gcc" "gca" "gcg" or "gct" nucleotides all mean "alanine" amino acid). 

The deletion of a single nucleotide, or the addition of one, can change the entire sequence of amino acids that come after it! Nucleotides are read in sets of three, so this throws off how the DNA is read. If would be like turning "The brown fox jumps over the dog" into "The gbrow nfo xjump sove rth edo g". Completely different! All of the words are thrown off.

I know it is long but I hope it helped

:D
