Answer:b. Facilitated transport

Explanation:in the usual activities of the cell,it's cell membrane is responsible for the movement of substance in and out of the cell.

Such substances include nutrients,water, oxygen etc.

The plasma membrane select the substances that it allows into the cell thus it is said to be selectively permeable.

The plasma membrane of the cell has a phospholipid bilayer made up of cholesterol, proteins and glycoproteins.

The proteins on the membrane are useful for facilitated diffusion.

In this diffusion process,the proteins helps to carry large molecules across the cell membrane.such molecules includes glucose,amino acids etc.

In the process energy is not expended so it is a type of passive transport.

Which of the following statements about plankton or nekton is NOT correct?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

C. All plankton are closely related to plants.

Explanation:

Plankton are organisms found in water that exist in a drifting state. They are too small or weak to swim on their own, so they let the current or tide carry them. They are usually microscopic but include larger species as well, such as some crustaceans and jellyfish.

Phytoplankton are autothrophic plankton. This means that they produce their own food. They are primary producers and closely related to plants.

Zooplankton are heterotrophic plankton, which means that they feed on other organisms. They are animals and aren't closely related to plants.

Nekton are organisms found in water that swim actively.

Based on this information, we can conclude that statement C is the only incorrect statement.
