A nuclear powered submarine uses nuclear power for propulsion and all other on-board activities that need power, like lighting, cooking and computers.

This applies on all voyages not just in the Gulf of Mexico.

Do large proteins containing a nuclear localization signal bind to the nuclear pore and enter the nucleus without any expenditure of energy?

No, proteins with a nuclear localization signal require energy to actively transport through the nuclear pore complex into the nucleus. They are not able to enter the nucleus passively. The binding and translocation through the nuclear pore are facilitated by specific transport receptors and require energy in the form of GTP hydrolysis.


Controls movement in and out of the nucleus?

The nuclear pore complex controls the movement of molecules in and out of the nucleus. It acts as a selective barrier, allowing only specific molecules to pass through the nuclear envelope. Signals on molecules regulate their transport through the nuclear pores.


What are the odds nuclear casks will break while being transported?

The likelihood of nuclear casks breaking during transport is extremely low. These casks undergo rigorous testing and are designed to withstand a variety of potential transportation accidents. Additionally, strict regulations and safety protocols are in place to ensure the safe transport of nuclear materials.


What happens when a nuclear reactor in a nuclear submarrine explodes?

It can't explode like a nuclear bomb. It could have a steam explosion, as can any steam power plant. It is also possible for it to build up hydrogen gas if it runs too hot and damages its fuel rods, the hydrogen could explode.


What is a nuclear biconcave disk called?

A nuclear biconcave disk is called a red blood cell, also known as an erythrocyte. These cells have a unique shape that allows them to efficiently transport oxygen throughout the body.
