Anumber of systems for pumping ions across membranes are powered by atp. such atp-powered pumps are often called atpases although they don't often hydrolyze atp unless they are simultaneously transporting ions. because small increases in calcium ions in the cytosol can trigger a number of different intracellular reactions, cells keep the cytosolic calcium concentration quite low under normal conditions, using atp-powered calcium pumps. for example, muscle cells transport calcium from the cytosol into the membranous system called the sarcoplasmic reticulum (sr). if a resting muscle cell's cytosol has a free calcium ion concentration of 10-7 while the concentration in the sr is 10-2, then how is the atpase acting?

Choose one animal (cheetas) and research on the internet what has contributed to this animal becoming "endangered" or "threatened." what animal you have chosen? how long has the animal been endangered or threatened? what has contributed to this animal’s endangered or threatened status? why is it important to save this animal from extinction? after researching and gathering facts, write a 350-word letter from the point of view of an animal rights' activist. be sure to include at least five facts that you learned from your research.

Which scientific design has both practical limitations and limitations due to scale? studying the effect of bleach on the growth of mold spores exposing cultures of duckweed to different intensities of light observing the replication of dna molecules with a hand lens using colored marbles to model a cross between two colors of rabbits

Which of the following statements is correct in hour our immune system responds to a potential pathogen? a. the adapted immune system will call on the innate immune system to destroy the pathogen. b. b cells will start reading the antigen code immediately and call t cells to assist in destroying the pathogen. c. the skin will be the first line of defense, and then the many phagocytes in the bloodstream will attempt to consume the possible pathogen. d. the t-cells in the adapted immune systems are the first to recognize the pathogen vaccines are weakened forms of disease causing microorganisms, which are given to patients to prevent disease. after the vaccine is administered, the immune system responds by creating a(n) to recognize the a. antigen, antibody b. antibody, antigen c. antibody, antibiotic d. antibiotic, antibody
