Tina could use dendrochronology in her studies. Dendrochronology is the study of tree rings and scientists use this method to study past climatic conditions. Tree rings record the annual growth of the tree. A smaller than average tree ring indicates a possible drought or other climatic factor than can negatively affect the growth of trees. A larger than average ring can speak of favorable conditions for growth such as increased rainfall.
Answer: absorption
Explanation: “The process or action by which one thing absorbs or is absorbed by another.”
In this case, matter and energy is absorbed.
Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration.
Passive transport does NOT require energy
-Diffusion - small uncharged molecules
-Osmosis - water
-Facilitated diffusion - glucose
Active transport REQUIRES energy
-Ion pumps
-Endocytosis
-Exocytosis
