During cell respiration, the reactants of glucose and oxygen are transformed into the products of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. Which of the following cell transport processes would be relatively unaffected if a cell no longer had access to glucose? Choose 1 Choose 1 (Choice A) A The transport of calcium into a muscle cell via facilitated diffusion. (Choice B) B The transport of an amino acid into an intestinal cell from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration gradient. (Choice C) C The transport of sodium against its concentration gradient in a brain cell. (Choice D) D The passive transport of a charged potassium ion (K^+ + start superscript, plus, end superscript) through a cell membrane.

For this question look at the hydropic diagram water that is heated by the sun evaporates. select the number that represents it.

The large increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide in the last 50 years most likely comes from a. an increase in cellular respiration b. increased decomposition by bacteria c. an increase in the burning of fossil fuels d. an increase in photosynthesis

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i. e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
