Proton pumps embedded in the cell membrane use ATP to move hydrogen ions across the membrane. Which of the following best describes a function of the proton pump? A. It decreases the pH inside the cell to prevent toxicity. B. It generates a voltage across the membrane as a way to store energy. C. It helps maintain homeostasis by absorbing electrical charges. D. It increases the fluidity of the cell membrane as energy is used.

Answer for anyone who may still need it: B. It generates a voltage across the membrane as a way to store energy.

explanation:

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
