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.

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

There are different function performed by carbohydrates in the body like-

Storage: When there is excess glucose present in the body they are stored as glycogen in muscles and liver.

Providing energy: Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy for the cells present in our body.

Carbohydrate helps to spare proteins and lipids and helps in providing polysaccharides for membrane carbohydrates.

The body maintains blood glucose levels through hormones. For example, when the blood glucose level gets high insulin is released in the blood by the pancreas which reduces the blood glucose level by accumulating glucose as glycogen in the liver and muscle.

Glucagon works opposite to insulin and increases the blood glucose level.
