It tends to be found on the apical plasma membrane of polarized cells It transports three sodium ions to the outside of the cell It transports two potassium ions to the inside of the cell. It helps to maintain unequal distribution of ions across the plasma membrane

The Na+/K+-ATPase pumping Na+ into the cell and K+ out of the cell The Na+/K+-ATPase pumping K+ into the cell and Na+ out of the cell A larger diffusion of K+ out of the cell compared to diffusion of Na+ into the cell A larger diffusion of K+ into the cell compared to diffusion of Na+ out of the cell a) and d) b) and c)
A cell biologist is performing an experiment using the voltage clamp method in which they are allowed to change the voltage in the membrane potential. They are wanting to record potassium currents and notice that for a certain membrane potential range, the voltage clamp highlights that there is an inward current of potassium. Would these readings make sense?
A cell has a membrane potential of -100 mV (more negative inside than outside) and has 1,000 times more calcium ions outside the cell than inside. Which best describes a mechanism by which Ca2+ enters this cell? facilitated diffusion of Ca2+ into the cell down its electrochemical gradient movement of Ca2+ into the cell through an ion channel down its concentration gradient passive diffusion of Ca2+ into the cell down its electrochemical gradient cotransport of Ca2+ into the cell with Cl- movement of Ca2+ into the cell through a carrier protein down its electrical gradient I know that the answer is 1 but please explain why. Thank you.
Two scientists calculated the membrane potential of a neuron using two different equations, the Nernst equation and the Goldman equation. Their calculations gave them slightly different predictions. What is the most likely reason for this difference? The lipid compositions of the cell membranes that the scientists studied were different. The scientists placed their measuring electrodes in slightly different positions. The temperatures of the fluid surrounding the cell membranes were different. The numbers of ions considered in the calculations were different. The scientists measured different numbers of cells.
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
There are several membrane-bound organelles in cells (e.g. nuclei, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum) that can also have ion channels in their membranes. Sketch an electrical circuit model of a cell that expresses sodium, calcium, and chloride ion channels in its cellular membrane and calcium and chloride ion channels in its nuclear envelope membrane.
A resting cell's membrane is more permeable to K+ simply because: K has a higher atomic number than Na. The Na+/K+ ATPase only works in response to a stimulus. There are more voltage-gated K+ channels than voltage-gated Na+ channels in the cell membrane. There are more K+ leaky channels than Na+ leaky channels in the cell membrane.
What is the relationship between the sodium-potassium pump and a neuron's resting membrane potential? The sodium-potassium pump allows three negatively charged sodium ions out of the cell for every two negatively charged potassium ions allowed into the cell, there by keeping the cell positively charged and at a resting membrane potential The sodium-potassium pump allows three positively charged potassium ions out of the cell for every two positively charged sodium ions allowed into the cell, thereby keeping the cell negatively charged and at a resting membrane potential 100 The sodium-potassium pump allows three positively charged sodium ions out of the cell for every two positively charged potassium ions allowed into the cell, thereby keeping the cell negatively charged and at a resting membrane potential The sodium-potassium pump allows three negatively charged potassium ions out of the cell for every two negatively charged sodium ions allowed into the cell, thereby keeping the cell…
