Question
when a cell is exposed to low oxygen,the activity of the sodium/potassium atpase pumpA) Increases B)Decreases C)initially increases,followed by a decrease D) None of the above when a cell is exposed to low oxygen,the activity of the sodium/potassium atpase pump
A) Increases B)Decreases C)initially increases,followed by a decrease D) None of the above when a cell is exposed to low oxygen,the activity of the sodium/potassium atpase pump
A) Increases B)Decreases C)initially increases,followed by a decrease D) None of the above
Explanation / Answer
b.Hypoxia or low oxygen concentration inhibits Na,K-ATPase activity by decreasing the number of active Na+ pump molecules .thus the activity of the sodium/potassium atpase pump decreases.
