Missing salts on early Mars
[1] Our understanding of the role of water on Mars has been profoundly influenced over the past several years by the detection of widespread aqueous alteration minerals. Clay minerals are found throughout ancient Noachian terrains and sulfate salts are abundant in younger Hesperian terrains, but these phases are rarely found together in the early Martian rock record. Full alteration assemblages...
متن کاملElectric Field-induced Structural Rearrangements in Biomembranes
Structure and function of biological membranes are vitally dependent on the electric membrane polarization; prolonged depolarization of the plasma membrane causes cell death. The natural cross-membrane electric field affecting the protein/lipid dielectrics are on the order of 100 kVcm_ t. The inhomogeneous field originating from ionic groups and adsorbed small ions are of the same order of magn...
متن کاملStructural Characteristics of ACuCh Salts*
The coordination geometries and the electronic structures found in trichlorocuprates(II) are reviewed. Trichlorocuprates occur in two types: dimers and chains. The crystal chemistry of both types is discussed. A simple electrostatic argument, charge compensation, allows the prediction of the overall structure. Interest· in the former class is focused on the different ways of dimer stacking, ffi...
متن کاملLarge enhancement of canine taste responses to sugars by salts
The effects of changed ionic environments on the canine taste responses to sugars were examined by recording the activity of the chorda tympani nerve. a) The responses to various sugars were greatly enhanced by the presence of salts having monovalent cations such as Na+, K+, choline+, or Tris+. The responses to sugars were suppressed by high concentrations of salts. (b) The presence of 100 mM N...
