Answer:
a. In the presence of 2,4 dinitrophenol, which is soluble through the lipid membranes, the H+ gets an another route to pass through the membrane. It hampers the proton gradient potential without any generation of ATP. The gradient that was being utilized for the generation of energy is now just lost in the form of heat.
b. With the reduction in the generation of energy, the cells get devoid of ATP, and drive the electron transport chain intensely so that the collapsing proton gradient gets re-established. However, it prevents the ATP synthase by providing a different path to the proton ions and thus diminishing the H+ concentration gradient.
Answer:
If you place an animal or a plant cell in a hypertonic solution, the cell shrinks, because it loses water ( water moves from a higher concentration inside the cell to a lower concentration outside ). A single animal cell ( like a red blood cell) placed in a hypotonic solution will fill up with water and then burst.
Answer:
Tissue
Explanation:
The levels of organization go as follows:
Atom - the building blocks of all living and nonliving material
Molecule - two or more atoms that join together in chemical bond
Organelle - two or more molecules working together to perform a particular function in a cell
Cell - the smallest unit that exhibits all of the characteristics of life
<u>Tissue - two or more cells that work together to perform a particular function</u>
Organ - two or more tissues that work together to perform a particular function
Organ System - two or more organs that work together to perform a particular function
Multi-Celled Organism - two or more organ systems that work together
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Mutations occur oftenly in organisms because it is seen as natural. Not all generations will give offsprings with perfect traits, They tend to have either 50/50 inherited traits from each parent of 100% off a parent if it was asexual reproduction.
The conditions listed above are common side effects of DEPRESSANTS. Depressants are drugs which slowed down the central nervous system an the brain. They are usually used to treat anxiety and sleep disorders. Other side effects of depressants include: slurred speech, impaired memory and judgement, lowered inhibition, etc.
