The sodium–potassium atpase hydrolyzes atp to pump two k+ ions inside the cell and three na+ ions out. this is an example of energy conversion in which the energy from atp is converted to choose one or more: a. an action potential. b. reorganization of cellular organelles. c. a chemical gradient across the cell membrane. d. movement of the organism. e. an electrical potential across the cell membrane.

The sodium–potassium atpase hydrolyzes atp to pump two k+ ions inside the cell and three na+ ions out. This is an example of energy conversion in which the energy from atp is converted to,

a. An action potential (the atp derives the ion channels to actively transport ions in and out of the cell)

c. A chemical gradient across the cell membrane. (active transport)

e. An electrical potential across the cell membrane.(The movement of ions across the cell creates a membrane potential. This movement takes place through active transport by the hydrolysis of atp)

answer: 4

explanation: 8

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
