Biology
2 answers:
Citrus2011 [14]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. The movement of molecules up a concentration gradient from low to high, using energy

Explanation:

In active transport, the molecules move against the concentration gradient.

This means that the molecules move from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.

Because it goes against the concentration gradient, it requires the use of ATP energy.

So, B is correct because it is the movement of molecules from a low to high concentration using energy.

A banana plant produces rhizomes, which are involved in ______.​
stira [4]
Rhizomes are involved in the production of stems and “reproduction” of new plant parts. It has been theorized that rhizomes, when removed, can grow into completely new (but genetically identical) plants! It’s kind of like budding, so it’s pretty cool.

I hope I helped!

Overfishing of salmon has caused populations of wild salmon to decline. To combat this decline, salmon are raised in hatcheries,
Maslowich

Option A, The pressures of a hatchery environment and of the wild environment select for different traits.


The various pressures in wild environment include the competition for food and survival, threat of prey etc. The effect of domestication on salmon can also be a reason for its low productivity in wild environment. Some other factors that might have affected the regular productivity of salmon in wild environment include- captive rearing, inbreeding among close relatives and ability of some fish to adapt to the unique hatchery environment.

How does the principle of faunal succession assist the technique of relative dating?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

It provides a defined order to the succession of organisms.

Explanation: Relative dating of rocks involves the relative or comparative determination of age with reference to past events. There are several principles involved in carrying out relative dating. Some of these principles are:1. Principle of inclusion2. Principle of inclusion 3. Principle of fossil and fauna succession The Principle of fossil and fauna succession postulates that fossil and fauna succeeds one another in a definite pattern. It is this defined order that we use to achieve relative dating of rocks. Plant and animal remains constitutes the fauna and fossils used in dating the rocks. When we find a particular fossil in a rock, we can place that rock in its appropriate geological time. We can even go further by correlating rock types using their fossil contents.
