Which one of these is NOT an example using facilitated diffusion?

Biology
2 answers:
Lina20 [59]3 years ago

Answer:

C. "Using the sodium-potassium pump involves the hydrolysis of ATP and the

release of Nat to the outside of the cell."

Explanation:

The use of a sodium-potassium pump is a form of active transport, not diffusion. It also requires energy because the pump moves ions against their concentration gradient (low to high), unlike diffusion.

Answer:

Using the sodium-potassium pump involves the hydrolysis of ATP and the

release of Na+ to the outside of the cell.

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport. Molecules are moved from higher to lower concentration hence the process does not require energy or ATP. It does require a pore or channel to facilitate the process.

Out of the given options, sodium potassium pump is not an example of facilitated diffusion since it is hydrolysing ATP and using energy for the movement of Na+ ions against the concentration gradient. It is an example of active transport.

What is NOT true about the evidence that fossils provide?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

C. All fossils contain intact DNA that can be sequenced.

Explanation:

Fossils are the impression, trace or preserved remains of once-living thing from past thousands of years such as bones, exoskeletons, objects preserved in amber, and stone imprints of animals or microbes.

Fossils provide evidence about seevral characteristics and features of extinct organism such as evolutionary relationship between organisms and  transitional forms between groups of organisms. but all the fossil do not provide evidence about the intact DNA that can be sequenced because some fossils carry DNA rumnants which do not have the ability to get sequenced.

Hence, the correct option is C.
