Answer:

The correct answer will be- arteries→capillaries→veins

Explanation:

The circulation of blood in the closed circulatory system flows through blood vessels. These blood vessels show structural differences in response to the pressure exerted by the blood on the surrounding medium.

The blood pressure varies in the circulatory system because the heart pumps the blood with a greater force, so the blood vessel called arteries which carries the blood from the heart posses thicker walls.

The blood pressure reduces until the blood reaches the organs, the blood pressure reduces. Thus the blood in the capillaries has lower pressure.

When blood exits from the organs back to the heart, then the blood pressure is highly reduced as a result, the veins carry the blood with lower pressure.

Thus, arteries→capillaries→veins are the correct answer.

Answer:

B (active transport using ATP)

Explanation:

Movement of substances normally occur in the direction of concentration gradient/difference i.e. the difference in concentration of a substance across a membrane. Letting molecules diffuse or pass down their concentration gradient does not require energy but pumping those molecules against gradient requires energy in form of Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This process is called Active transport.

In order to perform certain cellular processes, cells need to move substances from their surroundings into the cell across their cell membrane. Moving this substances against the concentration gradient between the cell membrane and its extracellular fluid requires energy (ATP).

An example is the sodium-pottasium pump employed by animal cells in which they expend energy to move K+ molecules into the cell and Na+ molecules outside the cell against the concentration gradient of their cell membrane and extracellular solution.

How can flowers help other organisms? What type of relationship is it?
mr Goodwill [35]

Well, flowers give insects like bees and butterflies nectar. That's their food. In return, the insects spread the flower's pollen so that other plants like its type can be fertilized.

This is mutualism - a symbiotic relationship were two organisms benefit.
