In primary active transport, the transport protein gets phosphorylated; in secondary active transport, the transport protein is not phosphorylated

Serial ATA is a type of hard drive connector and standard. Instead of a 40-pin parallel ATA plug, is uses around 6 wires to send the data in a serial fashion. If you don't have SATA sockets or not enough for your needs, then you have to install an expansion card with SATA connectors. They are available for different types of expansion sockets, support different SATA standards (generation 3 is the current standard), and have different numbers of SATA sockets.

A serial wire can be used for several uses. Mainly, it's used for basic communication between different devices. The main advantage is the fact that serial communication can use only three wires. Parallel requires several more, typically eight, or sixteen, plus signalling, and traditionally is faster. But for simple communication between devices, which could be computers or other devices, serial communication can simplify things. Serial communication can also be used for great distances. The telegraph was serial communication. Hence "AT&T"!

A hard-drive or other form of recordable media such as CDs/DVDs/Flash Drives. But as this is clearly a homework question, your teacher wants hard drive.

A comment line is a line or part of a line in a program that is intended as a remark or comment and is ignored when the program runs. It is noted within the file by using a semi-colon or an REM to mark a line as a comment.

If you are referring to how the numerical amounts assigned to computer memory (RAM) are always divisible by two, it is because we use a Base16 system in computers.

At the lowest level everything breaks down to Binary code. Binary consists of only 2 characters 0, and 1. A single binary digit is referred to as a 'bit'. The next step up is grouping 8 bits together, which makes a byte. The next step past that is exactly 1024 bytes, which makes a kilobyte.

So RAM is a volatile storage for binary data, so its storing these 0's and 1's, which are equally portioned, therefore the RAM must follow the same numbering convention.

MSI has not produced many dual processor boards. The Athlon socket motherboard for MP processors is for 266 DDR FSB chips only. It may pose a problem if the user wanted to upgrade to something better, as the chip would likely not support a 333 FSB or beyond cpu.

However, there are some newer dual opteron motherboards that look promising. Try "googling" 'dual opteron motherboard' and see what results come up. Bear in mind that AMD is going to release a dual core CPU which, in effect, are two cpus on one chip.

yes....but as far as I am aware, very few games will utilse more than ONE core and as such you'll get better results with a dual core with higher clock speeds, also they are cheaper.

Saying that its far more important to spend as_much_as_you_can_afford on a good GPU as this will have a much bigger impact on your gaming performance. (graphics processing unit)

if you're building from scratch make sure you get a motherboard with a decent Front Side Bus and a Power Supply Unit that will be able to power it all.

I believe Ipod has much more reliability, not only with their compatability, but with there constant updates from Apple. Better firmware, and Itune's helps. This is also the same with Zune and its software. Ipod can also be very cheap with there products, and a 120 gigabyte Zune is only 249 in Canada (convert if you want to know for American dollar).

SanDisk makes some good items, but if you want a really dedicated company, go for Ipod or Zune.

The "r" in the DVD-r means that the disc can only be recorded once. If using a DVD-RW the "rw" means that the disc can be erased and used time and time again. Hence "r" for record, and "rw" for read/write. hope this helps!

Read Only Memory.

It just means that the speakers are built into the unit, rather than separate speakers that you rig up to it.

The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer does bothinput and output operations.

hard copy relates to information that is in phsical and tangable form, like a print out, on paper.

soft copy relates to information on digital means, usb, hard drive email ect.

Yes, some companies will have that software on the CD you get with the scanner which will scan and print all in one go.

If it does not then your other option is to scan the document to the computer then print it. It's can be long winded if there are multiple pages but it is possible.

A computer's keyboard is an example of an input device, in that it puts data into a computer when the keys are pressed. An output device example is the monitor or screen that can show visually the data as it is typed.

The Motherboard..

A keylogger builds a log of everything typed into a keyboard to be reviewed by a third party. Keyloggers can be used for legitimate purposes to troubleshoot networks, analyze employee productivity, or to assist law enforcement, for example; or they can be used for illegitimate purposes to surreptitiously spy on people for personal gain. A keylogger can be a hardware device or a software program.

You can't. You must have a drive with writing capabilities to write to a CD.

Floppy disks are typically fragile and error-prone, so they are not suitable for long-term archiving. While the individual cost of a floppy disk is usually low, the per-megabyte cost of a floppy is extraordinary. Here are the per-megabyte costs of various devices, based on their price on Newegg:

1 TB hard drive (Seagate Barracuda) - .01 cents

DVD-R (based on 50-disc spindle) - .04 cents

CD-R (based on 50-disc spindle) - .22 cents

Compare that to the price of floppies (based on box of 10 from Wal-Mart):

Floppy disk - 33.8 cents.
