Why does the animal cell without oxygen fail to absorb sodium?
This is because the absorption of sodium is an energy-dependent process. Without an adequate oxygen supply, the cell will not have sufficient ATP available to absorb the sodium.
Why can oxygen easily cross the plasma membrane but sodium ions are unable to cross the plasma membrane?
Gh
What structure does oxygen diffuses through but a sodium ion may need active transport?
A semipermeable membrane
How much oxygen was there 2.2 billion years ago?
There was so much oxygen 2.2 billion years ago such that it cannot be computed. In the present day, most of the oxygen has been reduced to metal oxides.
What are the ingredients in Brewer's anaerobic agar that remove O2 form the medium?
Oxygen reacts with the molecule sodium thioglycollate. If this is in a broth, the broth will end up having a gradient of available oxygen in it, with lower and lower levels of oxygen the farther down you go to the bottom. As for the brewer's agar, the sodium thioglycollate isn't enough to reduce oxygen levels to a low enough percentage to allow species like Closteridium sporogenes (for example) to grow. These plates must be kept in an airtight chamber with all oxygen somehow removed from it (most commonly a gas pack system that captures oxygen from the air). Hope this helps.
Is oxygen 2 a metal or nonmetal?
Oxygen is a nonmetal.
Is sodium metal nonmetal metalliod?
Sodium is a metal (an alkali metal)
Is sodium metal or nonmetal tell you?
Sodium is an alkali metal.
Is a sodium nonmetal?
No, it is a metal.
Is sodium oxide metal or nonmetal?
metal
Is sodium hydroxide metal or nonmetal?
metal
Is sodium a nonmetal or a metal or a solid or a liquid?
Sodium is a solid metal.
Sodium result is metal o nonmetal?
Sodium (Na) is a metal.
Is sodium chloride two metals two nonmetals a metal and a nonmetal or a nonmetal and a noble gas?
Sodium chloride contains the metal sodium and the non metal chlorine.
Is sodium a nonmetal that is at room temperature?
No, sodium is a metal.
Is oxygen a metal metalloid or a nonmetal?
Oxygen is nonmetal because since oxygen isn't visable it's not solid so oxygen is nonmetal.
Is sodium and oxygen ionic compound?
Yes, they are an ionic compound when joined as,Na2OSodium oxide.Separately, sodium is an metal element of the alkali family and oxygen is a highly electronegative gas and nonmetal.
