Answer:

The correct option is A) Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

Active transport can be described as the movement of molecules against a concentration gradient i.e from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration.

Facilitated diffusion can be described as the movement of molecules guided by other molecules such as integral proteins. These kinds of movements are a type of passive transport as the molecules move along the concentration gradient from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Farmers definitely use the information above to plan out their crops from one year to next.

Explanation:

Nitrogen is an essential nutrient required for healthy plant growth. Corn is an important food crop and after its cultivation the soil is depleted of its nitrogen. Cultivation of any crop on soils that lack nitrogen will not yield good result.

Thus the nitrogen in the soil has to be replenished. Soybean is a crop that has symbiotic bacteria living on its roots. This bacteria help in fixing atmospheric nitrogen. Thus the nitrogen level will get replenished.

Thus cultivating soybean on the land in the period between harvest and sowing of corn would be a healthy practice that increases yield and maintains soil health.
