Oleander (nerium oleander) is a common but poisonous ornamental shrub. all parts of the plant contain chemicals that inhibit the na+/k+ pump. how would this affect sodium-glucose symporters (secondary active transport) of a given cell?

Glucose levels within the cell would decrease

Explanation:

Sodium glucose simulators are proteins that participate in secondary active transport within epithelial cells. This type of protein can be located in the cell membrane and has the function of transporting glucose and sodium into cells simultaneously. These proteins are directly dependent on Na+/K+ pumps, as they use the free energy released by them to efficiently transport sodium and glucose. For this reason, we can conclude that if a plant's chemicals inhibit the Na+/K+ pump, glucose and sodium concentrations will decrease because the proteins responsible for their transport into the cell will be weakened by a lack of energy.

1. a host loses nutrients to a parasite

2. a parasite only benefits when the host is alive (cause if the host dies the parasite dies with it )

3. producers to consumers

4. the tapeworm is a parasite

5. they convert energy from the sun (photosynthesis)

6. sunflower-robin (i think im 80% sure)

7. producer

8. consumer

9. prey

10. fresh water snails ( cause the green algea is the producer and the snails are the primary consumers and the small fish consumer so is the big fish)
