Answer:

Active transport across membranes is like refilling an empty soda can after pouring the soda into a cup. It takes effort (energy in the form of ATP) to pour the soda back into the can, it wouldn't typically happen on its own.

Explanation:

Cells use several transport mechanisms to move substances across their plasma membranes. Plasma membranes control all movement of substances through passive transport, which does not use energy; and active transport which requires chemical energy in the form of ATP.

Active transport moves substances out of cells against their gradients. In the cell, glucose can be transported inwards for respiration. However, because the internal environment is typically concentrated, (and glucose is needed in high amounts) this requires the use of transport enzymes and ATP.

Explain what happens to tissues, such as the heart, or the brain, if oxygenated blood is not delivered in a timely manner.

frozen [14]

When oxygenated blood is not delivered in a timely manner, the tissue will start to malfunction. oxygenated blood not delivered on time may be caused by hypoventilation, which is very dangerous and lethal. which will also result to high concentration carbon dioxide of the body

1. How many different phenotypes are possible in the offspring of two parents with genotypes AA and aa, where A is the dominant

Stolb23 [73]

For question number 1, there is one phenotype only with homozygous allele which are recessive and dominant of both parents. For question number 2, the answer is letter B. plants with both red and blue flowers because it is codominant so the trait will express both alleles. For question number 3, the answer is letter C. four genetically identical cells because it is from two daughter cells which undergo meiosis that results into 4 identical cells that are needed for somatic cells in our body. For question number 4, the answer is the leading strand is copied in the 5’ to 3’ direction and the lagging strand is copied in the 3’ to 5 because it is based in the ends of each nucleotides that is carrying the genes. For question number 5, the answer is gene regulation which is used by cells to increase of decrease specific gene products or RNA.

Based on your observations, which way does earth rotate—from east to west, or west to east? Explain your answer.

JulijaS [17]

Based on my observations, the earth rotates from west to east about the axis of rotation. The counter-clockwise rotation of the earth is as viewed from the North Pole star Polaris.

My observations supporting the counter-clockwise rotation of the earth are:

The Sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

All celestial objects including the stars and the moon rise in the east and set in the west.

The rotation is the result of the strong geomagnetic field of the earth. It is also responsible for the formation of day and night on the planet.

Remodeling a kitchen to add additional cabinets to existing ones also means adding extra support. In a similar respect bone remo

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Option 4 - Calcium

Explanation:

The divalent cation called calcium is needed to provide additional support to the bone matrix.

Calcium is considered one of the most important components in bone development. It helps in the formation as well as maintenance of bone. During the modeling and remodeling process of bones, calcium facilitates the formation of semi-hard new tissues which leads to the formation of new bone which is very hard.

Due to this reason, calcium is needed to create extra bone matrix support.
