What else can I help you with?
How can electrolyte imbalance control your heart function?
Electrolytes such as Sodium and potassium help the heart contract through a process called action potential. When the heart is at -60 MV the cell will open up allowing sodium into the cardiac cells causing a contraction. Look up action potential.
What type of of muscle is found only in the heart?
Cardiac muscle is found only in the heart. Cardiac muscle contains the proteins actin and myosin. All the other muscles are smooth or skeletal.
Why does a blood clot in the coronary artery prevent cells respiring normally?
Why a blood clot is the coronary artery stops the red blood cells from respiring normally
How does a stem cell become a heart organ?
what is the prosess of a stem cell becoming aheart
How many chromosomes are in a human heart cell?
Same as any other somatic cell - 46.
Where in a heart cell is calcium normally found?
Calcium is normally found in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of a heart cell. It is stored in this organelle and plays a critical role in regulating muscle contraction in the heart by being released into the cytoplasm when the cell is stimulated.
Where in a heart cell is calcium normally stored?
Outside the cardiac muscle cell
What is the area where chromosomes are normally found in a cell that ends with a s?
The area where chromosomes are normally found in a cell that ends with an "s" is the nucleus.
What organelle is not normally found in the plant cell?
Centrioles are organelles not normally found in plant cells. They are involved in cell division and are typically found in animal cells, where they play a role in organizing the mitotic spindle during cell division.
Where is potassium found in a plant?
in every cell, it is the main electric regulator ion
What structure would normally be found in a plant cell but not in a animal cell?
Plants have a CELL WALL where animals do not.
What is the sodium-potassium pump?
The sodium-potassium pump is a protein found in the cell membrane that actively transports sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. This process requires energy in the form of ATP and helps maintain the cell's electrochemical gradient, which is essential for nerve function and muscle contraction.
What do sodium potassium pumps pump?
The sodium-potassium pump (PDB entries 2zxe and 3b8e ) is found in our cellular membranes, where it is in charge of generating a gradient of ions. It continually pumps sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell, powered by ATP.
What does the Na1 Ka1ATPase transport sodium and potassium into a cell sodium and potassium out of a cell sodium into cell potassium out of cell sodium out of cell potassium in ATP?
NaKATPase transports 3 K ions into the cell and takes only two Na ions out of it.
What is normally found in the vacuole of a cell?
vacuoles are filled with water cell sap which contains food,cell secretions,and wastes
What ion is found on the inside of a neuron?
The main ions found inside a neuron are potassium and organic anions. The organic anions cannot cross the cell membrane but potassium ions can. It is the diffusion of potassium ions out of the cell which is the main cause of the resting membrane potential.
Which statements are not true about the sodium potassium pump?
The sodium-potassium pump moves sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. The pump functions using energy from ATP hydrolysis. The pump maintains the chemical and electrical gradients of sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrane. The pump is found only in prokaryotic cells and not in eukaryotic cells.
