Biology
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: D (It involves carrier-mediated transport).

Explanation:

Tubular reabsorption transports nutrients back into the blood. Tubular reabsorption of nutrients such as sodium, glucose, lactate amino acids, and other organic substances occurs via carrier membrane proteins to the proximal tubule.

Most of the substances that are reabsorbed via the proximal tubule require the use of carrier membrane proteins, for facilitated diffusion, active transport and secondary active transport.

Example of secondary active transport is the sodium-dependent glucose cotranspoter.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The correct answer is - osmosis.

Explanation:

Paramecium lives in freshwater like the Potomac River which is hypotonic to the cytosol of the paramecium. Paramecium uses contractile vacuoles to transport the water from the lower concentration (outside of the cell) to a high concentration of solvent to the inside of the cells.

This process of cell transport is carried out by osmosis as their cytoplasm contains a higher concentration of solutes outside the cell. This excess water is collected into vacuoles called contractile vacuole that swells and finally internalized the water to the outside of the cell.

Thus, the correct answer is - osmosis.
