Passive transport is a movement of biochemicals and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without need of energy input. Unlike active transport, it does not require an input of cellular energy because it is instead driven by the tendency of the system to grow in entropy.

Hope this helps :p

How is a population impacted when biological diversity is increased?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Question one: Greater biodiversity in ecosystems, species, and individuals leads to greater stability. For example, species with high genetic diversity and many populations that are adapted to a wide variety of conditions are more likely to be able to weather disturbances, disease, and climate change.                Question two: If those resources limit growth, then increasing functional richness should lead to greater total productivity and decreased loss of resources from the ecosystem. Facilitative interactions among species could also lead to increases in ecosystem pools or process rates as species or functional richness increases.                                                                                      Question three: Important direct drivers affecting biodiversity are habitat change, climate change, invasive species, overexploitation, and pollution.
