Walking up a set of stairs and running up the stairs require approximately the same metabolic energy. Explain why you’d expect this to be the case.
a. What is ∆G for one cycle of the sodium-potassium exchange pump?b. In a cell, the energy released from the hydrolysis of ATP is approximately 60 kJ/mol. What is the energy efficiency of the sodium-potassium exchange pump?
Each time he does one pushup, Jose, who has a mass of 75 kg, raises his center of mass by 25 cm. He completes an impressive 150 pushups in 5 minutes, exercising at a steady rate. a. If we assume that lowering his body has no energetic cost, what is his metabolic power during this workout? b. In fact, it costs Jose a certain amount of energy to lower his body—about half of what it costs to raise it. If you include this in your calculation, what is his metabolic power?

- Insects do not have lungs as we do, nor do they breathe through their mouths. Instead, they have a system of tiny tubes, called tracheae, through which oxygen diffuses into their bodies. The tracheae begin at the surface of the insect's body and penetrate into the interior. Suppose that a tracheae is 1.83 mm long with a cross-sectional area of 1.47 x 10-9m2. The concentration of oxygen in the air outside the insect is 0.651 kg/m3, and the diffusion constant is 1.79 x 10-5 m2/s. If the mass per second of oxygen is diffusing through a trachea is 1.77 x 10-12 kg/s, then find the oxygen concentration at the interior end of the tube.arrow_forwardHow do the tube worms at the hydrothermal vents survive? a The tube worms burrow into the sediment on the sea floor and find smaller worms and clams to eat. b The tube worms swim from vent to vent, looking for mats of bacteria that they can scrape off the rock with their red, bushy plumes. c The tube worms use their red bushy plumes to grab and devour small organisms like tiny shrimp. d They have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that live inside them and provide their nutrition.arrow_forwardQuestion 2 1 pts You take a survey that is supposed to measure whether you are an extrovert or not.

- Everett DeGolyer coined the term "energy slave" before the Great Depression to show that because of coal and oil, the United States led the world in per capita energy consumption. The average electrical consumption of an American residence 1500 kilowatt hours for a single family dwelling.
