Question
Here is a chloride cell in the gill epithelium of a fish. For reference, NKA = Na+/K+ ATPase

passive diffusion
B.
facilitated diffusion

- Define anterograde axoplasmic transport. Why is this type of axonal transport necessary in most neurons? And, briefly describe the molecules involved in facilitating anterograde transport 2arrow_forwardIon transporters are “linked” together—not physi-cally, but as a consequence of their actions. For example,cells can raise their intracellular pH, when it becomes tooacidic, by exchanging external Na+ for internal H+, usinga Na+–H+ antiporter. The change in internal Na+ is thenredressed using the Na+-K+ pump.A. Can these two transporters, operating together,normalize both the H+ and the Na+ concentrations insidethe cell?B. Does the linked action of these two pumps causeimbalances in either the K+ concentration or the mem-brane potential? Why or why not?arrow_forwardWhich of the following occurs when erythrocytes are transferred from an isotonic solution to a hypertonic solution? Water leaves the cell and results to crenation. B Water leaves the cell and results to osmotic lysis. C) Water enters the cell and results to crenation. D Water enters the cell and results to plasmolysis.arrow_forward

This occurs, for instance, when the antigen is a live microbe that binds to the BCR on the B cells. Which one of the forms of antigen shown below the graph would correctly account for the data shown in the figure?arrow_forwardThe S (spike) glycoprotein of coronaviruses can engage receptors by the N-terminal domain, the C-terminal domain, or both. The C-terminal domains of both human SARS coronaviruses bind ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2), whereas that of MERS-CoV binds DDP4 (dipeptidyl peptidase 4). In contrast, in mouse hepatitis coronavirus (MHV) the N-terminal domain of S binds CEACAM (cell adhesion molecule 1). You have identified a novel coronavirus with an S protein that displays similarity to MHV at the N terminus and to SARS at the C terminus. What are the molecules most likely to function as receptors and how will you test this?arrow_forward
