Answer:

Active Diffusion

Explanation:

In active transport, a molecule is transported against its gradient which means the flow of molecule is from regions of low concentration to regions of high concentration. In order to carryout such transports, external energy is applied through biological pumps such as sodium-potassium pump (Na+/K+ ATPase)  which maintains the resting potential of the cell.  

Some times the energy produced by ATP is directly used and this process is known as primary active transport/diffusion

The muscular system is made up of Multiple choice question. all the muscles plus the nerves attached to them. all the muscles, l
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

all the muscles.

Explanation:

The muscular system is composed of all muscles in the body. The main function of the muscles is to produce movement in different parts, voluntary or involuntary, creating equilibrium. Muscles are made of myocytes. There are three types of muscles: smooth muscle,  skeletal muscle, and myocardium.

  • The smooth muscle is formed by fusiform cells, mononucleated, and no transversal striations. There is a protein contraction system, but not as organized as the one of the skeletal muscle.  

Smooth-muscle can be found in organs, vessels, veins, and arteries. It provides sustained contractions, slow and rhythmical, but not voluntary.  

  • Skeletal muscle is the most abundant muscle in vertebrates, constituting the somatic musculature. It proportionates motion to extremities and digits and is responsible for the position and posture of the individual. It is also involved in eye movements, respiration, mastication, deglutition, and phonation. It moves the tongue, the superior esophagus, and the pharynx.  

The skeletal muscle is innervated by axons of the motor neurons coming from the CNS. The contraction of the skeletal muscle is voluntary and fast.  

Cells composing the striated muscle are significantly long and multinucleated. They arrange in bundles, where cells are parallel to each other.  

  • Myocardium tissue is more similar to the striated tissue than to the smooth one. However, there are some differences between them. Cardiac cells are cylindrical and smaller, with ramifications. Cardiac cells only have one nucleus, and occasionally there can be two. Actin and myosin filaments are arranged just as the skeletal ones, and the contraction of cardiac cells is molecularly very similar to the skeletal

Why isn't the longest day of the year the hottest day of the year?
Pachacha [2.7K]
The longest day of the year isn't the hottest day of the year because the phenomenon of the hottest weather following the summer solstice by a month or two is called the lag of seasons.

Which statement is correct about a euglena and a white blood cell? (1 point) A euglena cannot survive on its own because it is j
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

. A euglena survives on its own because it completes all life functions. A white blood cell cannot survive on its own because it is just one cell.

Explanation:

. A euglena survives on its own because it completes all life functions. A white blood cell cannot survive on its own because it is just one cell because A Euglena is a unicellular organism that can perform photosynthesis and complete cell activities. They live in fresh water, have eyespot, can excrete and have flagella for movement which are cellular activities

But a white blood cell cannot survive because it is one cell because it is produce from bone marrow and is a part of the immune system and work with other networks in the body system to fight against body infections.
