What types of cells are most sensitive to radiation damage?

Biology

It has meanwhile been shown that the most sensitive cells are those that areundifferentiated, well nourished, dividing quickly and highly active metabolically. Amongst the body cells, the most sensitive are spermatogoniaand erythroblasts, epidermal stem cells, gastrointestinal stem cells.

That is the cell membrane. Think of it as a gate around a city, that is how I remember it. The city is the cell, and the cell membrane is the gate that "protects" the city, and controls what can enter and exit.

In what way does the interior surface of a cell membrane of a resting (nonconducting) neuron differ from the external environmen
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer: option C) negatively charged and contains less sodium

Explanation:

In the absence of any stimulus, a neuron is said to be resting. During this time, more positively charged potassium ions (K+) than sodium ions (Na+) occupy the interior of its cell membrane, whereas more sodium ions than potassium occupies the exterior - making the cell membrane to be electrically Polarized with net positive charge outside and a net negative charge inside the cell membrane.

Thus, the interior is negatively charged and contains less sodium ions

Proton pumps are used in various ways by members of every domain of organisms: Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. What does this mo
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The correct answer is A and D

Explanation:

According to Russell's conception that lies in natural proton gradients. He states that Four billion years ago, alkaline fluids bubbled to produce mildly acidic oceans (As CO2 levels were about a thousand times higher, and it reacts with H2O to form carbonic acid, rendering the oceans mildly acidic). Acidity is just a measure of proton concentration,  higher in the oceans than in vent fluids. This difference has given rise to a natural proton gradient across the vent membranes that had the same polarity (outside positive) which is similar to the electrochemical potential as modern cells have. This might be the reason that last universal common ancestors of all the three domains have evolved proton pumps.
