What is it called when a molecule moves across a semipermeable membrane into a region of higher concentration?

Answer:

C. Active transport

Explanation:

When a molecule moves across a semipermeable membrane into a region of higher concentration it is known as active transport. When there no semipermeable membrane then the movement of molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration is known as diffusion. But when there is a semipermeable membrane in between that time its solvent which moves from higher concentration to the lower concentration not solute and the phenomenon is known as osmosis. This is passive transport and occurs naturally so no energy input is required to be provided for this movement to occur. But, active transport is reverse of passive transport. In active transport, the movement of solvent occurs from lower concentration to higher concentration across a semipermeable membrane. Active transport is not a spontaneous process so in order for active transport to occur we are required to provide an energy input from an outside source.

A string of lights in a series circuit is not working. Which of the following is most likely the cause?
Talja [164]

Answer:

B. a light bulb burned out and "closed" the circuit.

Explanation:

Unscrew one bulb. If the other bulbs turn off, it is a series circuit. A light bulb glows when electrons flow through it. As the electron flow increases, the brightness increases.

When lights are attached in parallel, each light is on its own circuit to the power source. If one filament burns out, it has no effect on the remaining lights, as they each continue to be in a closed circuit with the power source.

You are investigating a mutant eukaryotic cell line that makes all of its mRNAs much longer than the mRNAs from normal cells. In
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is that the spliceosome is non-functional.

Explanation:

A spliceosome refers to a composite and large molecular apparatus found mainly inside the nucleus of the eukaryotic cells. The prime function of the spliceosome is to remove the introns from a transcribed pre-mRNA, that is, a kind of primary transcript.  

In case if the spliceosome machinery gets failed to function, the mRNA will not remove the introns, that is, the non-coding parts and retains it. This will eventually lead to the formation of longer mRNAs.

What is the use of chloroplast?
Arisa [49]

Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis.
