When the nerves deliver a signal to contract, Ca++ (calcium ions) rush into the cell. The calcium ion influx causes specialized fibers to contract. Afterward, calcium ions are pumped out of the cell by calcium ATPases. What transport type(s) is occuring?s antiporter only ion gated transport followed by active transport active transport only ion gated transport only active transport followed by ion gated transport
Compared with the inside of the resting plasma membrane, the outside surface of the membrane isa. positively charged.b. electrically neutral.c. negatively charged.d. continuously reversing, so that it is positive one second and negative the next.e. negatively charged whenever the sodium-potassium pump isoperating
2. Circle the correct bolded blue word. a. A substance that moves across a membrane "down" or "with" their concentration gradient is moving from the side with a higher / lower concentration of that substance to the side with a higher / lower concentration. This does / doesn't require energy input and is called active / passive transport. b. A substance moving "against" or "up" its concentration gradient is moving from the side with a higher / lower concentration of that substance to the side with a higher / lower concentration. This does / doesn't require energy input and is called active / passive transport. c. If the energy from the hydrolysis of ATP is directly used to pump the substance, the transport is called primary /secondary active transport. d. Ion-coupled transport is primary /secondary active transport and has two parts. First, the hydrolysis of ATP is used to power the creation of an ion concentration gradient. The ion is typically Na* or H*. Second, the energy stored in…

Which of the following statements about "leak channels" in the plasma mem- brane is correct? A. Proteins that form these channels bind to solutes to allow them to pass into the cell. B. They are passageways formed by proteins to allow water and ions to move passively through the membrane. C. They allow small ions and molecules to move between adjacent cells. D. They are formed by glycoprotein and proteoglycans to allow hormones to enter cells.
In which way are voltage-gated ion channels and active transporters similar? a they are required to move small permeable molecules across cell membranes b they are proteins which move molecules across cell membranes c they utilize facilitated diffusion d they directly require energy in the form of ATP to move molecules e they generate concentration gradients
Here is a chloride cell in the gill epithelium of a fish. For reference, NKA = Na+/K+ ATPaseNKCC = Na+/K+/Cl- cotransporter. The NKCC (Na+ K+ Cl- cotransporter) moves Cl- into the cell against its concentration gradient. What type of transport does NKCC carry out?A. passive diffusionB. facilitated diffusionC. secondary active transportD. primary active transport
Chloride ions (Cl-) are in higher concentration outside of the cell compared to the intracellular fluid (ICF). If a cell is at rest and chloride-specific ion channels open, identify what would happen. Choose ALL of the correct answers. 1 Some chloride will enter the cell, but the concentration gradient for chloride will not change much. 2 The membrane will hyperpolarize 3 Chloride will come into the cell until it reaches chemical equilibrium. 4 The membrane potential won't change. 5 The membrane will depolarize 6 Some chloride will leave the cell, but the concentration gradient for chloride will not change much
The membrane of most cells, including neurons, contains passive, open, K' leak channels. Given the normal K' concentrations and the resultant concentration gradient, which direction would K' be expected to move (diffuse) through these leak channels? Select one: 1/into the cell 2/out of the cell
If I have a higher concentration of water inside my cells , which is low concentration of solute inside the cells the makes my cell swell and it cause hypotonic. Is that true? I am confused having low concentration of solute inside not outside of the cell right? Is it
