Answer:

274.4 gallons of water remains to be used.

Explanation:

Volume of the water in the tank = 280 gallon

Volume of water lost = 2% of 280 gallon =\frac{2}{100}\times 280 gallon=5.6 gallon

Volume of water left after lost of 2% of water:

280 gallon - 5.6 gallon =274.4 gallon

274.4 gallons of water remains to be used.

280 gallons is 100 %

if 2% were to be lost, you will be left with 98 percent

2% of 280 is 5.6

If you take 5.6 out of 280, you will have 274.4

So 98 percent, which is 274.4 gallons remain to be used

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

I am willing to be wrong, but based on my understanding of forces it is the pineapple and the baseball

Explanation:

The pineapple has unbalanced forces between gravity and the table

The baseball has unbalanced forces with the propulsion used to move it forward

It may also be the bird but I understood that as net flight force between gravity and lift

An undersupply of the major inhibitory neurotransmitter known as ________ is linked to seizures.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)

Explanation:

Epileptic seizures are induced by a preponderance of electrical activity within the network of neurons in the brain. Synapsis is the meeting point between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another neuron. Electrical signals don't cross through the synapsis, instead, they are conveyed in a chemical form by neurotransmitters.

The neurotransmitters convey messages across the synapsis in a chemical form until they find to the receptor of the dendrite of the receiving neuron. Neurotransmitters can either be excitatory or inhibitory in function i.e. the receiving neuron can either be stimulated to action or inhibited from action. The main excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters in the brain are Glutamate and Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) respectively.

There must be a balance between excitation and inhibition of neurons, in order to ascertain the optimal functioning of the brain. Too much Glutamate or too little of GABA can make neurons hyperexcitable and hyperexcitability of neurons makes the brain susceptible to seizures.

Answer:

The correct answers to the question are:

  • The concentration of solute bathing the inner side of the plant cell membrane should be high.
  • The concentration of solute bathing the outer side of the plant cell membrane should be low.

Explanation:

  • Turgidity can be defined as a condition in which the cell membrane of the plants cells becomes completely extended as a result of which it pushes tightly against the cell wall.
  • This happens when the cell takes up water from its environment and stores it in the vacuoles.
  • Water enters to the inside of the cell by the process of Osmosis.
  • Osmosis can be defined as the process by which molecules tend to move or diffuse from a region where its concentration is high to another region where its concentration is low, provided the two regions are separated by a semi-permeable membrane.
  • In any region, the concentration of solute and and concentration of solvent  bears an inverse relationship. This means that the region where the solute concentration is high, the solvent concentration is low and where the solute concentration is low, the solvent concentration is high.
  • In the given question, as the cell takes up water from the surrounding into its vacuole to become turgid, so by the concept of osmosis, the concentration of water must have been high outside the cell and low inside the cell.
  • Again by the inverse concentration concept of solute and solvent, the concentration of solute inside the cell should be more than the concentration of solute outside the cell.
