The inner and outer surfaces of a cell membrane carry a negative and positive charge, respectively. Because of these charges, a potential difference of about 70 mV exists across the membrane. The thickness of the membrane is 8 nm. A) If the membrane were empty (filled with air), what would be the magnitude of the electric field inside the membrane? (Assume that this field would be constant in magnitude). B) If the dielectric constant of the membrane is K = 3, what would the field be inside the membrane?3) Cells can carry ions across a membrane against the field ("uphill") using a variety of active transport mechanisms. One mechanism does so by using up some of the cell's stored energy (converting ATP to ADP, for those who remember their biochemistry). How much work does it take to carry one sodium ion (charge = +e) across the membrane against the field?

The scientific method is a series of steps followed by scientific investigators to answer specific questions about the natural world. it involves making observations, formulating a hypothesis, and conducting scientific experiments.the steps of the scientific method are •observation-the first step of the scientific method involves making an observation about something that interests you•question-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •hypothesis-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •experiment-once you've developed a hypothesis, you must design and conduct an experiment that will test it.•results-the results are where you report what happened in the experiment. •conclusion-the final step of the scientific method is developing a conclusion.i hope that this you : )
