When does facilitated diffusion occur?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The word ‘diffusion’ means free movement across distance, with or without the presence of a barrier. However, there is a phenomenon known as facilitated diffusion which occurs at the cellular level. The cell does not allow free radicals and other harmful substances to enter and harm the cell organs.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

When certain large molecules are unable to move through the membrane without the help of channel proteins.

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion occurs when large molecules that are unable to pass through a membrane on their own make use of channel proteins to move from one side of the membrane to the other. Facilitated diffusion can occur when a liquid on one side of a membrane has a higher osmotic pressure than a liquid on the other side of the membrane, but it isn’t a required feature of facilitated diffusion. Similarly, facilitated diffusion can occur when there’s a large membrane potential present, but it isn’t a required feature of facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion doesn’t require the use of energy, so the presence of ATP is irrelevant to facilitated diffusion occurring.

enzymes are important because they contain what?

Answers

Chemical reactions are important because they break down and make new molecules constantly, and are necessary for life. ... Enzymes are important in living organisms because they speed up chemical reactions that take place in cells. (Innetnt) :)

Answer:

Enzymes are proteins that serve as catalysts for certain chemical reactions. They help the human body properly digest food and break down molecules into smaller units so that the intestines can absorb all its nutrients. Enzymes occur naturally in several foods and eating them raw gives the body an ample supply to help properly digest food, maintain optimum condition of the internal organs, as well as fight cancer cells

Which one of the following components is responsible for the clotting of blood? Select one: O a plasma O b. leukocytes O c. hemoglobin O d. thrombocytes​

Answers

Answer:

D. thrombocytes​

Explanation:

The main function of thrombocytes is to stop the bleeding of injured blood vessels. In mammals, thrombocytes are anucleated cell fragments called platelets.

Thrombocytes is responsible for the clotting of blood.

What are thrombocytes?

The microscopic blood cells known as platelets, or thrombocytes, aid in blood coagulation. Your body naturally stops bleeding with platelets.

Plasma, red, white, and platelet-containing blood cells make up whole blood. Platelets, the lightest component of whole blood, are pushed to the walls of your blood vessels because they are the heaviest part of the blood.

This allows plasma and blood cells to flow through the center, allowing platelets to reach injury rapidly to stop bleeding.

Therefore, Thrombocytes is responsible for the clotting of blood.

What is never found inside the lipid bilateral of a cell membrane

Answers

Answer:

Cell membranes restrict diffusion of highly charged molecules, such as ions, and large molecules, such as sugars and amino acids.

Explanation:

Cell membranes serve as barriers and gatekeepers. They are semi-permeable, which means that some molecules can diffuse across the lipid bilayer but others cannot. Small hydrophobic molecules and gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide cross membranes rapidly. Small polar molecules, such as water and ethanol, can also pass through membranes, but they do so more slowly. On the other hand, cell membranes restrict diffusion of highly charged molecules, such as ions, and large molecules, such as sugars and amino acids. The passage of these molecules relies on specific transport proteins embedded in the membrane.

Which letter in the image above represents the activation energy of a reaction
WITHOUT an enzyme present?

C
B
A & B
A

Answers

Answer: B

Explanation: Because the Red shows activity

Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required for activating the atoms or molecules to undergo chemical transportation or transfer.

The correct answer is:

Option D. The letter A.

In the graph, activation energy can be explained as:

1. The activation energy is the minimal amount of energy necessary for the compounds to participate in the chemical reaction.

2. In the graph, the activation energy without the enzyme is represented by A,  the activation of energy with enzyme is represented by B, and the change in the free energy is represented by C.

how does coriolis effect affect the climate zones in the world? PLEASE HELP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLY TO PROPER ANSWER!

Answers

Answer:

Please Mark as Brainliest

Explanation:

The development of weather patterns, such as cyclones and trade winds, are examples of the impact of the Coriolis effect. ... As warm air rises near the Equator, for instance, it flows toward the poles. In the Northern Hemisphere, these warm air currents are deflected to the right (east) as they move northward.

The Coriolis effect was presumed to be the reason for the rotation of low pressure areas which is anticlockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and Clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. The problem with this is that it would carry the winds to the east in either hemisphere because of the velocity of the surface being faster near the equator going east bound at the equator at just over 1,000 miles per hour. The velocity drop by 35 degrees north or south is to about 860 mph. The only problem with this concept is that it doesn’t sustain a recurving circular flow. South bound winds are slower and would carry to the west.

There is only one structure that explains the full vortex structure of storms. That structure is an Electromagnetic particle vortex. Sorry folks the Coriolis effect is one of those things that needs sent to the dustbin of history (Trash for Americans).

The weather plasma flow linkages are being well studied now. There is no reason to continue to teach Coriolis Effect regards rotation of storms. It does have effect in things like the massive ocean currents and the generalized flows on earth of winds but it doesn’t affect rotation of storms. Even there we are learning that motion north and south from the equator is primarily electrical in nature.

Explanation:

The formula to solve for mass is:

m=F/a

So, The force is 0.1, and the acceleration is 1.25^2.

First you must square 1.25, which will give you 1.12 ( I rounded).

Now, we have 0.1/1.12, which equals 0.089, or 0.09.
