There are a few types of active transport, but if we're talking about the sodium potassium pump for example, we know that for movement of this type, we need energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which has also been called the energy currency of the body. This gets broken down and then enables for different substances to move in and out of the cell membrane (this is just one example of active transport).

Rudik [331]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Control microcosms did not contain living moss, while experimental microcosms did contain living moss.

Explanation:

The difference between the control microcosms and experiment Microcosms is, the presence of the living moss in the experimental group whereas the control group does not contain living moss.

The independent variable in this research setting is the presence or absence of the living moss and for the control group, the mosses are filtered out and only added the water.
