The rotation of the earth

The Coriolis Effect is caused by Earth’s uneven distribution of heat AND the rotation of the earth

Explanation:

Due to the spherical nature of the earth, when it spins, around its axis, different latitudes spin at different rates. The nearer to the pole you get the slower the earth’s spins (approx 0.00008 kilometers/hr), while this spin is fastest at the equator ( approx1,600 kilometers/hr). Due to this differential spin, ocean and winds currents (while they move polewards due to convection) are deflected as they move towards the pole from the equator. Towards the North, they are deflected westwards while towards the South they are deflected eastwards.

Andrews [41]
The answer to this question would be: oxygen

The presence of oxygen allows the cell to do the aerobic reaction. Using in metabolism will result in a much higher number of ATP produced. 
When there is no oxygen, the cells make energy using the anaerobic reaction that gives a low number of ATP.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

<em>B: The drug is a small charged molecule</em>

Explanation:

Substances can passively diffuse in and out of the cell via the cell membrane in two ways;

  • Simple diffusion
  • Facilitated diffusion

The cell membrane allows small molecules or ions to freely diffuse across it in response to concentration difference between the inner and outer parts of the cell membrane. This is known as simple diffusion.

In facilitated diffusion, special proteins in the cell membrane, known as channel/carrier proteins binds with molecules and facilitates their diffusion across the cell membrane by carrying them through special channels in the membrane.

Hence, to support the alternative hypothesis that the new drug will exhibit simple diffusion across the plasma membrane, the drug should be a small charged molecule.

<em>Correct option: B</em>
