Biology
1 answer:

5 0
Yes. The gradient determines the direction of movement for particles. Diffusion and osmosis are both examples of passive transport Osmosis is the diffusion of water through semipermeable membranes like the cell membrane

The particles will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This direction of movement is described as movement *with* the concentration gradient.

6. When the end product of a pathway inhibits catalysis of the first step of that pathway, this phenomenon is called A. reversib
Ilya [14]

Answer:

B) Feedback inhibition

Explanation:

Feedback inhibition is a situation in which the end product of a reaction controls the action of the enzyme that helped produce it. In this process the end products formed at the end of a sequence of reactions participate in inhibiting the activity of the enzymes that helped synthesis the end product. Some examples of products that are used in feedback inhibition are CTP, citrate and Isoleucine. While negative feedback is used in the context of inhibition, negative feedback may also be used for promoting a certain process.

Therefore, when the end product of a pathway inhibits catalysis of the first step of that pathway, this phenomenon is called Feedback inhibition.
