What alteration to an hcn channel will reduce the transport of k+ in favor of na+ transport? hcn channels are permeable to both k+ and na+ ions.

Decreasing the diameter of the channel by removing aa's. Since Na+ is chemically similar to K+, one can assume the difference must be due to the size of the atom. The K+ ion is larger than the Na+ ion, so reducing the diameter of the channel can allow Na+ to enter while preventing K+ entry. This explains clearly and perfectly how reducing the diameter reduces the

transport of K+ in favor of Na+ transport.

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."

answer:

technetium is the most reactive. this is followed by silver. the least reactive out of these three elements is strontium.
