Answer:

C. away from the area where it is more concentrated.

Explanation:

If a molecule is moving across a cell membrane w/o using the cell's energy, it is diffusion, which is defined as the movement of a substance from higher to lower concentration. Diffusion <em>never </em>requires energy, whether it is facilitated or not, as clustered molecules and/or atoms simply want to get the heck away from each other if in too high concentration in a single place. The type of molecular movement across a cell membrane that would require the cell's energy would be active transport, which often requires ATP or GTP and works against a concentration gradient.

Cheers.

Summary of climate change
GuDViN [60]
It’s the release of harmful gases e.g. carbon dioxide into the environment due to human activity, therefore causing a rise in global temperatures, which is climate change. Warmer temperatures negatively impact our environment because it causes a decrease in biodiversity, allows more diseases to spread(most live in warmer temp.) and so on.

Altruistic behavior a. is that which benefits others while causing a disadvantage to the individual. b. is not a beneficial evol
Maksim231197 [3]

The correct answer is A. Is that which benefits others while causing a disadvantage to the individual.

Explanation:

In biology, altruistic behavior occurs as one organism actions benefit other organisms either because these actions increase the reproductive fitness or the chances an organism survives and prevails over time. Additionally, altruistic behavior implies there is a disadvantage for the organisms acting in the benefit of others. For example, wolves or similar animals take food to those that did not participate in hunting, which means they help other wolves to survive on their own cost as this means less food for those that hunted. According to this, altruistic behavior "is that which benefits others while causing a disadvantage to the individual".

A student decided to investigate the effect of pH on the activity of the enzyme lipase , five different test tubes are set up ,e
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

the pH

Explanation:

The condition that should not be kept the same in each of the five test tubes is the pH.

Since <u>the aim of the experiment is to investigate the effect of pH on the activity of the lipase enzyme</u>, the pH is, therefore, the <em>independent variable</em>. Thus, it must be controlled or varied in all the test tubes in order to see its effect on the activity of the enzyme, which, in this case, would be the dependent variable.
