How are active and passive transport different?

Physics
1 answer:
sashaice [31]3 years ago

Passive transport is when molecules travel from HIGHER concentration to LOWER concentration through a concentration gradient.

Active transport is the OPPOSITE. So it travels from LOWER to HIGHER concentration through a concentration gradient.

There are also other differences, but this is the main difference.

Answer:

The three "accelerators"  are: the throttle,  the steering wheel and the brakes.

Acceleration means change in velocity. But this change may be in module or in direction.

3. Order the following lengths from shortest to longest.
horrorfan [7]

Answer: d < a < c < b

3.3 cm < 400 mm < 170 m < 22 km

Explanation:

Firstly, let's convert these length to meters m, in order to work with the same units:

a. 400 millimeters

400 mm \frac{1m}{1000 mm}=0.4 m

b. 22 kilometers

22 km \frac{1000m}{1 km}=22000 m

c. 170 meters

Here the lenght is already in meters

d. 3.3 centimeters

3.3 cm \frac{1m}{100 cm}=0.033 m

Now that we have all the lengths in meters, we can order them from shortest to longest:

0.033 m < 0.4 m < 170 m < 22000 m

or

d < a < c < b
