Answer:

Passive transport

Explanation:

Active transport uses energy, Passive transport does not.

(I couldn't figure out how to respond to the answer above, which said the answer was Osmosis. I don't think this is true as osmosis involves water, and is much more specific. Passive transport is the correct answer, at least on Edge.)

Answer:

Osmosis

Explanation:

Passive transport does not require energy for movement in and out of a place or across a membrane e.g a cell.

Osmosis uses passive transport to move materials in and out of a cell by setting up concentration gradient through a distance.

Osmosis can be defined as the movement of molecules or particles of a solution from an area of higher concentration to that of lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane e.g plasma membrane. As we can see, the difference in concentration is the drive for the transport between the two medium. When the concentration is the same, there won't be any movement again.

T-cells are a type of immune cell system that recognizes pathogens in the body.
Advocard [28]

The statement is true that T-cells are a type of immune cell system that recognizes pathogens in the body.

T-cells are the lymphocytes that are involved in providing acquired immunity to the body. They can recognize the pathogens presented by the antigen presenting cells. There are two types of t cells: helper T cells and Cytotoxic T cells.

Immune cells are the cells of the immune system that are involved in protecting the body from infection, allergies and foreign pathogens. There are several immune cells that perform several functions. The example of such cells are: phagocytes, lymphocytes, dendritic cells, etc.
